FTC probes Anthropic and OpenAI "breaches", wonders who should be liable From the even-a-stopped-clock-is-right-twice-a-day department: FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson told Reuters that he thinks that companies should be liable for chatbot harms. At that time, Ferguson emphasized that he was tired of people anthropomorphizing AI tools. He insisted that, “if someone tells a tool to do something, and the tool does it, I don’t think we would say, ‘Oh, what do we do about the tool?’”

For fuck’s sake… it’s Biden’s goddam fault, of course. And he had Hillary secretly working with Obama on the underground tunnel that was supposed to seal the leaks between computers and the clever fuckers who programmed the computers. But no. Tunnel still open. Not only open, tunnel was given to the biggest criminal on this planet (by biggest I mean the “wealthiest”) who no doubt has hooks into ALL government information, secret or otherwise. So probe there first, asshole. Or pretend to. You’d best do whatever crime daddy tells you to do else - well you know the donny threat by now - “you’ll watch your family perish before we finish you” mobster crap. torture. brutality. it’s how animals keep control. violence. it’s how the mob operates. all of them.
