That's like a gun company claiming using their weapons for robbery is a violation of terms of service.

“Our deepest sympathies are with the Raine family for their unimaginable loss,” OpenAI said in its blog, while its filing acknowledged, “Adam Raine’s death is a tragedy.” But “at the same time,” it’s essential to consider all the available context, OpenAI’s filing said, including that OpenAI has a mission to build AI that “benefits all of humanity” and is supposedly a pioneer in chatbot safety.

How the fuck is OpenAI's mission relevant to the case? Are suggesting that their mission is worth a few deaths?

A TOS is not a liability shield. If Raine violated the terms of service, OpenAI should have terminated the service to him.

They did not.

Ah. The Disney defense.

So why can't this awesome AI be stopped from being used in ways that violate the TOS?

The situation is tragic... their attempt to hide behind their ToS on that is fucking hilarious.

Fucking.WOW.

Sam Altman just LOVES answering stupid questions. People should be asking him about this in those PR sprints.

The police also violated my Terms of Service when they arrested me for that armed bank robbery I was allegedly committing. This is a serious problem in our society people; something must be done!

Modern version of "suicide is a sin and we don't condone it, but if you have problems you're devil-possessed and need to repent and have only yourself to blame".

Also probably could be countered by their advertising contradicting their ToS. Not a lawyer.

It is scary how the AI can't assist you with sexual fantasies/roleplays but can assist with that, even though I'm curious what the logs are because I think OpenAI is at least smart enough to tell you "Hey, please don't do that here's some numbers" even if you push it I think.

Well there you have it. It’s not the dev’s fault, it’s the AI’s fault. Just like they’d throw any other employee under the bus, even if it’s one they created.

A big part of the problem is that people think they’re talking to something intelligent that understands them and knows how many instances of letters words have.

Just going through this thread and blocking anyone defending OpenAI or AI in general, your opinions are trash and your breath smells like boot leather

The biggest issue to me is that the kid didn’t feel safe enough to talk to his parents. And that mental health, globally, is taboo and ignored and not something we talk about. As someone part of the mental health system, it’s a joke how bad it is.

Well, did anyone expect them to admit guilt?

Does the synthesis of D-Lysergic Acid work against the terms of service if you ask for a mind-bending experience?

Fuck that noise. ChatGPT and OpenAI murdered Adam Raine and should be held responsible for it.

smells a lot like this
