Shouldn't some of these AI company higher ups be arrested and brought up on Computer Fraud and Abuse charges? Any individual running a local LLM that hacked a company would absolutely be held responsible for the LLM's actions, and corporations are, as Mitt Romney likes to say, people.

it's fiction, that's why.

which part, CEOs being arrested for illegal activities?

Shall we play a game of thermonuclear war?

Wouldn't you prefer a good game of chess?

What if he could present evidence that he didn't tell AI to do it? Is it reckless negligence to give any AI agent access to the internet or even not prevent it 100% from gaining it? Because millions are doing it daily. Pretty much everybody who's doing anything with AI agents.

It’s like Trump bragging he could shoot someone at Fifth Avenue and not lose voters. Congrats, I guess??

Did he actually say that?

Yes, it was a joke he made about how loyal his voters are, and it was widely covered in the news.

If there isn’t a legal resolution, that’ll only leave us with a Luigi resolution.

Seems like nowadays the mantra is:

- "Hey dev, why did you write bugged code?"

- "It wasn't me, it was my LLM"

- "Hey ops guy, why did you deploy and insecure env?"

- "It wasn't me, it was my LLM"

- "Hey dude why did you hack this firm?"

- "It wasn't me, it was my LLM"

ad infinitum.
