This is everything I’ve ever wanted to say about AI at my job, plus things I never would’ve thought of, perfectly articulated, well-cited, and emphasized with poignant graphics. I’m floored.

    There's a difference for a one-time fine that covers continued wrong doing over a period of time, and a fine about a specific instance of misbehaviour.

    The first don't accrue, and I agree, should be based on revenue so that they serve as actual punishment and serve as future deterrent.

    But a €250k that can be slapped by thousands of cases that happen every day (AI providing wrong information) has the potential to be massive as well.

    I think the point other people are making is that this can set precedent in German law and allow other people with similar issues to bring suit and win on merit and not have to fight as hard for their case to be considered. It could also end up inspiring similar cases in other countries using similar frameworks, adapted for local laws.

    If suddenly Alphabet has thousands people taking to them to court in jurisdictions all over the world, that can indeed hurt them, although it will take longer than injunctions on Google now, I fully agree.

    ChatGPT can't discuss Brian Hood because he sued them (it shuts down if you bring him up).

    We should all have the option to opt out of being discussed by LLM models. In fact, it should probably be an opt-in process. Not being discussed should be the default.
