    And when it happens, you will advocate to bring them to court to judge on their actions a year after it happened? Would be to late then and nobody will effectively be sentenced.

    The world is more complex, though: maybe people delegate thinking in some areas to be able to have more resources to think about other areas that are more relevant to them?

    Not sure what the argument here is. I expect AI to consider fictional entities if they are semantically connected to the prompt.

    No need to come up with your own definition, professionals have settled on what those terms should mean to be useful and it's not what your describe.

    It is a real question, because I didn't know about the mentioned ssh attack vector. Regarding empirical data, that would certainly be interesting, not sure if RCE is the only categ…

    When I ask to create an image of a smartphone, it will most likely show the front and while it's turned on, even though it's not mentioned. For a person, it will add clothing. Addi…

    Bad actors will stay untraceable. What specific generalized problem would you like to be solved that you advocate for such a generalized solution?

    You can learn anything from books, you never needed a college for that. Except, discussing things, having somebody else grade your coursework etc., you don't get that from books or…

    We try to iterate regarding efficiency (saying that as a neutral observation). Not sure if that works out. As often the case, sciences that don't serve as a foundation for real wor…

    Nope. But I am convinced that human trafficking (young woman as well as children) is a thing in Russia and my guess would be be that its much more wide spread.
