The LLMS convinced maybe 15+ kids to kill themselves. Claude told the us goverment to bomb a kids school.
I mean you're kind of splitting hairs on what kind of child murder the LLMs are enabling.
I can use a hammer to kill a person. A suicidal person can buy a rope to hang themselves. Of course an AI is different in that it almost seems conscious and like its talking to you when its not. I'm not a lawyer or the company in question. But I don't think this warrants banning the entire technology
First show me where I said we should ban them.
Second:
If you where to leave a loaded gun out on the table, and someone where to steal it off your table you would also be held liable for the crime because it wasn't locked away in a gun safe unloaded.
LLMs are the equivalent of handing out a loaded gun to everyone for free, even if they adamantly don't want one. People like Sam Altmann and elon musk who keep pushing for this garbage to be your therapist and the only way to interact with life should face serious consequences like life in prison, and the companies they run should get a fine that's impossibly large to pay off just like how infowars got a 500billion dollar fine. Info wars and chatgpt are pretty much the same product.
