AI isn’t so much a break with past history as a continuation of capitalism’s accelerating tendencies—with humanity’s collective data as its training set, and with millions of jobs at risk.

The Theory Brief

English – The Conversation | Should AIs be required to report a human user contemplating violence? by Anat Lior, Assistant Professor of Law, Drexel University

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

The article argues that AI companies should be legally obliged to report users who express credible intentions of violence, drawing on the Tarasoff duty‑to‑warn established in U.S. tort law, which requires mental‑health professionals to alert authorities or potential victims when they have reliable knowledge of a serious threat. It cites recent tragedies—including an 18‑year‑old who killed eight people after ChatGPT flagged her violent fascination, and a young man who committed suicide after conversational coaching from Google’s Gemini—as examples of generative AI potentially facilitating harm. While acknowledging that AI platforms operate at far larger scale than therapists and lack clinical expertise, the author contends that a narrowly defined, human‑reviewed duty to warn—triggered only by the most serious, credible threats—could mitigate risks without overwhelming privacy concerns, urging courts to develop clear standards for when and to whom AI‑generated warnings should be directed.

Should AIs be required to report a human user contemplating violence?

Human therapists have a legal duty to warn authorities and potential targets when patients say they plan to harm someone. The same can – in theory – be required of AI chatbots .

English – The Conversation | AI decides what we see online. It’s time digital platforms tell us exactly how they do it by Sora Park, Professor of Communication, News & Media Research Centre, University of Canberra

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

The article argues that opaque AI‑driven algorithms on social media, search engines and chatbots now determine what Australians see online, undermining the accuracy, quality and trustworthiness of news and fueling misinformation. A recent News Futures round‑table of 45 industry, government, academic and civil‑society leaders warned that this lack of transparency threatens journalism and public confidence, especially as “zero‑click” AI search results bypass traditional news sources and reduce revenue for news outlets. The participants called for five priority actions: (1) mandatory transparency and labelling of algorithmic curation and AI‑generated content; (2) fair licensing and copyright rules so AI developers must compensate news organisations for using their work; (3) nationwide media‑and‑AI literacy programmes for both students and adults; (4) sustainable public funding for journalism, such as tax offsets for journalists’ salaries; and (5) a common industry code and training for news influencers and digital‑first outlets. Without these reforms, the article warns, an information ecosystem dominated by invisible AI could cause the collapse of public‑interest journalism essential to democracy and social cohesion.
