I hope they don’t have any test questions about nuclear power in the training set.

Couldn't find the reference but I remember some time ago a first generation automated gun killing the audience at an army show. Was the gun maker convicted of manslauther?

--edit-- Was a bit older than I remembered: https://slashdot.org/story/07/10/18/1847231/robotic-cannon-l...

Since the publicized AI agent hacks typically aren't malicious, maybe it's time to start plastering all public facing web infrastructure with polite requests to stop hacking. Nothing to stop three letter agencies though.

How do you define malicious?

It will be very interesting to see how the AI labs will try to hand wave away liability issues in their S1. This is looking like the next tobacco settlement gearing up.

If the big labs ever manage to not just financially implode on their own, then they’ll need to navigate wave after wave of class action lawsuits until there’s nothing left for plaintiffs to go after. And none of the labs have offered any viable plan to date on how they’ll navigate either of those impending and real existential crises on the horizon.

OpenAI must be held accountable

aaronsw was just a few decades ahead of his time. He should have just been employed by OpenAI and asked a swarm of agents to "download all scientific papers". Because as we have found out agentic systems (and their owners) have zero accountability, unlike humans. Sounds like agents already have more rights than we do.

rip.

OpenAI agents these summer are like a gift that keeps giving, for the existential risk communicators.

Surely there has to be some responsibility.
