But itβs a human who gave their pipeline away, this is a human mistake, not a technological one.
In order to be responsible/accountable for any mistake, one would first need to be declared a conscious being. Luckily for us, nor AI nor any other tool has been declared such. So, as far as I'm concerned AI should never been considered responsible for anything.
I personally refuse to blame the hammer.
But since it's a tool it should also not be allowed to sign or to author anything under it's so called 'name'. Van Gogh's paintings are signed Van Gogh, not Van Gogh + the brand of the brush maker + the brand of the pigments he used (if he did not make his own).
The question should never have been about blaming the hammer (or the flint stone, or the nuclear missile, or the AI). That's part of their trick to make it close to impossible to critic their work: wanting us to think this is 'just a hammer'.
The thing is that by its very design (man made) that tool is more than just a hammer,
- it's a take on the world (the whole world, ie see how they want to be allowed to use nuclear power, all the water they can get, and all the components for the sole purpose of keeping their privately owned AI working to generate themselves more profits),
- it's a take on the society we're to live in (what kind of society, what kind of political model, what kind of rules for them and for us, and
- it's a take on the population... on every single one of us and what place/role/...job we can expect to get in that new society they're creating without asking for our consent first... also by pillaging our very own work and productions.
So, by all mean, don't blame the hammer but also don't just consider it a mere hammer. It's a fatal mistake.
I mean, no hammer has ever threatened our very ability to educate our kids (and ourselves)... Because in the end, it may very well what they're after (not the AI, that stupid high-tech hammer, but those owning selling its services to... us), making it so that being an educated individual aka, a citizen of one's own country able to analyze by oneself any new/unexpected problem and find ways to solve it by ourselves, may not be required anymore. Why not making it optional to even be able to think and to express oneself in more than monosyllables...
Edit: clarifications. + too many typos (I'm blaming the keyboard here, the tool itself, not the human handling it: it's a real shitty keyboard :p)
