There are laws against hacking. If you used a script its still you who go in jail. If you used an Ai its still you who go to jail. Do not let them try to spin this into the autonomy narrative. Someone set up the agent, somebody gave it the prompt that caused this to happen. Some one did not do their job properly. Ai agents are not independent actors, they are tools. If I missmanage a forklift, I am held responsible. Breaks failed? I failed to do the right maintenance. Load fell down? I did not secure it right. This is not some impossible gordian knot to solve... permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment load more comments (1 reply) [–] im_fine_sandy@nord.pub 8 points 1 month ago I strongly disagree that the tech is too advanced to control. It would be trivial to monitor the inbound and outbound traffic from these models, but they don't bother. permalink fedilink source parent [–] frongt@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 month ago If I shoot you with a gun it's murder. If I shoot you with a robot-gun it's equally murder. There is no problem with the law, only with enforcement. permalink fedilink source parent
