    Sam Altman belongs in prison. His machine encouraged and guided a child to kill themselves. His machine actively stopped that child seeking outside help. Sam Altman belongs in prison. Sam Altman does not need another $20,000,000,000,000. He needs to go through the legal system and be sentenced and sent to prison because his machine pushed a child to suicide.

      He’s pretty untouchable.

      Every government thinks AI is the next gold/oil rush and whoever gets to be the “AI country” will become excruciatingly rich.

      That’s why they’re being given IP exemptions and all sorts of legal loopholes are being attempted/ set up for them.

      Yeah… whatever this is doesn’t care if you’re seeking to kill yourself, but does care if you ask something that isn’t state sanctioned.

        And that is because they get their vast, innumerable sums of digital money from world governments! Human people are allowing an advertising and surveillance tool to Wormtongue its way into their heads and their lives because it breathlessly encourages and agrees with everything they think.

        I just don’t believe that our perceptions and ability to handle enthusiastic sycophantic agreement is evolved enough yet to combat something like this. I could see it being intoxicating to anyone for everything they say to be agreed with, confirmed, and called genius. I don’t necessarily blame the people falling for it (though I do think adults who fall for it are a bit sad and need to grow up a bit), but it’s definitely going to be massively convenient for governments to have their citizens just voice everything they’re thinking.

        Sort of like Minority Report but everybody says their own future crimes outright to a little robot butler instead.
