I can’t be the only one that thinks if you do stupid illegal shit that your crazy uncle told you/voices in your head told you/AI mirror told you you don’t get to use the excuse that you were just following orders from any of those options.
That's not the problem. the problem is having a "lets turn Chris' mental illness that's harmed no one so far, into everyone's violent problem!" machine.
that's a bad machine.
Not just suicide assistance chat bots, but suicide promotion chat bots.
Floridaman is not making any excuses here. He can't. Because he's dead.
Power imbalance is what validates that excuse. Orders from crazy uncle is a great excuse, at least until you're 10 or so. Billion+ dollar llm company has a lot more resources, capability, and therefore responsibility than the poor bastards engaged with it
This is such an individualist framing.
