alt Hacker NewsI swear to G-d, every biweekly "AI made someone do a thing!" wannabe hit piece could trivially be edited to satirize Tipper Gore type pearl clutching soccer moms just by replacing "AI" with "satanic rock music", "violent video games", or "hardcore pornography".
(yes, yes, this time it's totally different. this current thing is totally unlike the previous current things. unlike those stupid boomers and their silly moral panics, you are on the right side of history.)

I don't know what you're advocating for. Are you saying we shouldn't have any safety restrictions on AI because we're responsible for how we use the tool? The hardcore pornography people managed to get laws put in place where you need an ID to view it, pretty much every major AI company has measures in place to do harm reduction and save the user from themselves, so to some degree society kind of agrees with the side you're aruging against.
When did rock music, video games or porn tell their audience to kill themselves in a personalized way to a point people actually did it, and in a way that directly links to those media?
