Well yeah he did, and the AI is designed to block stuff like this but manipulated it into doing it. I'm pretty sure the parents want a nice lump sum from Openai for his son's death

The torture nexus in the background, blue-screening ominously

[–] ApertureUA@lemmy.today 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Unless I an seriously misunderstanding, a 5$ wrench would be used instead of that "torture nexus" and then someone has to pay for giving shitty equipment.

Well, if AI becomes what it is marketed as, off we go to a simulation to be tortured forever. That is a problem!

The sentiment that the AI bares any noteworthy responsibility for this is purely anti AI rage, that should be aimed at legitimate problems.

Imagine suing a notebook company for their paper being the paper of choice for selfharming teens?

Imagine suing home depot for selling rope and a stool to someone who has had enough?

Imagine suing nickleback for making music of the quality that encouraged this?

Im saying, we're all aware this is some bits on a server right? Like this is clearly not a person, doesn't have the impact of a person, and unless they've specifically tuned it to manipulate the impressionable into killing people, these sentiments just don't make sense.

I agree the AI hate is becoming a satire of itself. What could be an interesting, meaningful discussion is impossible to have because anti AI peoppe just yell with their ears covered.

Yep, most of the comments on here are cringe-inducing outrage devoid of sense.

He violated the "im under 20 and an adult clause"

Mainly because 18 and 19 (and 20) aren't real adults yet.

Personal anecdot: I was 19 at a house party, my house. I got too drunk and had to go pass out. This 17 year old wanted my beautiful handsome boy body. She snuck into where I went to sleep and she put the moves on me. I tried telling her no and pushing her away, but also, I was only a drunk horny teen.

Honestly, by standard measure, she raped me. And thats not the only time... but as a guy, who do I tell I was supposedly raped?
