According to filings at the superior court of the state of California on Tuesday, OpenAI said that “to the extent that any ‘cause’ can be attributed to this tragic event” Raine’s “injuries and harm were caused or contributed to, directly and proximately, in whole or in part, by [his] misuse, unauthorised use, unintended use, unforeseeable use, and/or improper use of ChatGPT”.
It said that its terms of use prohibited asking ChatGPT for advice about self-harm and highlighted a limitation of liability provision that states “you will not rely on output as a sole source of truth or factual information”.
When a person crashes a car we didn’t allow tell them to tell us they we are using it wrong, we build in protections. We put in airbags, crumple zones, and seat belts.
Gun manufactures put in safeties, I bet every industry has tried to ensure their product could not be used in a way that is kills their users.
Ai comes in and says, “i mean, really it’s how your using our product, not the product itself. ” they stole apples, “your holding the phone wrong”
Clearly you know fuck all about cars or guns.
Safeties on guns are to prevent accidental, unintended discharge. I’m pretty sure someone using one for suicide is performing an intentional discharge.
Edit: Safeties prevent a gun from going off when dropped. Using such safeties becomes automatic, so automatic that they’re useless for preventing an unintentional discharge by a person pulling the trigger at the wrong time (which they weren’t really intended for). Hell, the Glock safety is built into the trigger itself, so it clearly doesn’t prevent a person pulling the trigger at the wrong time. The safety is disengaged by pulling the trigger.
Safety systems in cars are similar, to prevent injury from the vehicle itself in a crash.
Seat belts keep us from being thrown from a car. Airbags prevent us crushing our chest on the steering wheel, or head trauma from hitting a window.
Crumple zones absorb the energy of a collision so it’s not transferred to the occupants of a car.
None of this is to prevent a person from intentionally doing harm.
I’ve lost 2 friends to suicide by car - none of the safety systems had any chance of preventing it, and there is no way to prevent it.
Thanks for the info. Please try to be a little cooler about the delivery.
Funny note, people fought tooth and nail against seat belts and airbags when they were about to become mandatory.
Ah yes, famously at fault car accidents and gun suicides are a thing of the past
Why are you deliberately misunderstanding the post?
Because the assumption is clearly there’s zero guardrails on LLMs
