I can’t be the only one that thinks if you do stupid illegal shit that your crazy uncle told you/voices in your head told you/AI mirror told you you don’t get to use the excuse that you were just following orders from any of those options.
Power imbalance is what validates that excuse. Orders from crazy uncle is a great excuse, at least until you’re 10 or so. Billion+ dollar llm company has a lot more resources, capability, and therefore responsibility than the poor bastards engaged with it
Floridaman is not making any excuses here. He can’t. Because he’s dead.

That’s not the problem. the problem is having a “lets turn Chris’ mental illness that’s harmed no one so far, into a everyone very violent problem!” machine.

that’s a bad machine.

This is such an individualist framing.

The difference is, when a LLM tells you, it’s news. The only thing bigger in business than AI hype is AI hate.

Besides, what are you gonna do if you ask AI how many rocks to eat? NOT eat rocks? People can’t handle responsibility like that. It is literally putting ten of lives at risk!
