"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
So, when the AI makes a critical error and you die, who do you sue for malpractice?
The doctor for not catching the error? The hospital for selecting the AI that made a mistake? The AI company that made the buggy slop?
(Kidding, I know the real answer is that you're already dead and your family will get a coupon good for $3.00 off a sandwich at the hospital cafeteria.)
"AIs are people" will probably be the next conservative rallying cry. That will shield them from all legal repercussions aside from wrist-slaps just like corporations in general.
Cool, so they are entitled to wages and labor protections, then.
"Not like that!"
well see that is the technology, it is a legal lockpick for mass murderers to escape the consequences of knowingly condemning tens of thousands of innocent people to death for a pathetic hoarding of wealth.
