    Everyone remember this the next time a gun store or manufacturer gets shielded from a class action led by shooting victims and their parents.

    Remember that a fucking autocorrect program needed to be regulated so it couldn’t spit out instructions for a bomb, that probably wouldn’t work, and yet a company selling well more firepower than anyone would ever need for hunting or home defense was not at fault.

    I agree, LLMs should not be telling angry teenagers and insane righrwungers how to blow up a building. That is a bad thing and should be avoided. What I am pointing out is the very real situation we are in right now a much more deadly threat exists. And that the various levels of government have bent over backwards to protect the people enabling it to be untouchable.

    If you can allow a LLM company to be sued for serving up public information you should definitely be able to sue a corporation that built a gun whose only legit purpose is commiting a war crime level attack with.
