> Isn’t it convenient that nobody understands? How could we possibly regulate something that isn’t understood?

You mean like the human body? The brain?

If LLMs are like humans, then OpenAI and Anthropic are like slave traders.

I disagree with you that OpenAI and Anthropic are slave traders.

But I think we agree that there are regulated industries built around systems which we don’t fully understand.

My point is that they are using a similar playbook to avoid taking responsibility.

Who is not taking responsibility? You think that anaylst that copy pasted AI slob of such a critical information will be rewarded?

It just feels like the companies behind AIs are spinning their own poor monitoring and criminal (digital) trespassing into something they can't be held responsible for. Even though they are, of course. In the hugging face incident, Anthropic should pay for damages and a fine for malicious hacking. In this incident, whoever signed off on using the tool, and whoever said the intel was good should both be prosecuted or at the very least reprimanded (whatever the rules for a bad interpretation of intel is) and the tool put on hold.
