“According to Air Canada, Moffatt never should have trusted the chatbot and the airline should not be liable for the chatbot’s misleading information because Air Canada essentially argued that “the chatbot is a separate legal entity that is responsible for its own actions,” a court order said.”

Can you imagine the hellscape we’d be living in if precedent went the other way? Companies could just run every unsavory decision through some machine learning system and then wash their hands of it afterwards.

“Oh you were illegally fired? Sorry, that decision came from the Overmind, not from us.”

“here’s a rational sounding thing to be concerned about, also have you heard of adrenochrome?”

The shade those parents must’ve felt to have their interviews used in what turned out to be free marketing for Nintendo lol

Boss: “And here I see you’ve accessed something called ‘Lemmy’ 315 times today, what the hell is that?”

@ttmrichter: “Oh, no worries, I blocked all the porn.”

Why block them? I like a little spice with my scrolling. Plus it’s a fun mystery box to see what’s under the blur. Straight/gay? Cis/trans? That one guy that literally just posts 100 fully clothed celebs every hour to disappoint you? Who knows.
