Ok that's a good point. This means they had something in place for this problem and neglected it.
That means they also knew they had an issue here, if ignorance counted for anything.
Of course they know. They are knowingly making an addictive product that simulates an agreeable partner to your every whim and wish. OpenAi has a valuation of several hundred billion dollars, which they achieved in breakneck speeds. What’s a few bodies on the way to the top? What’s a few traumatized Kenyans being paid $1.50/hr to mark streams of NSFL content to help train their system?
Every possible hazard is unimportant to them if it interferes with making money. The only reason someone being encouraged to commit suicide by their product is a problem is it’s bad press. And in this case a lawsuit, which they will work hard to get thrown out. The computer isn’t liable, so how can they possibly be? Anyway here’s ChatGPT 5 and my god it’s so scary that Sam Altman will tweet about it with a picture of the Death Star to make his point.
The contempt these people have for all the rest of us is legendary.
Be a shame if they struggled getting the electricity required to meet SLAs for businesses wouldn't it.
