What does it mean to “make and example”?
I’m for cleaning up AI slop as much as the next natural born meat bag, but I also detest a litigious society. The types of legal action that stops this in the future would immediately be weaponized.
But when gemeni does it its a "mistake by the algorithm". AI is a used as responsibility diversion machine.
This is a rather harmless example. But what about dangerous medical advice? What about openly false advertising? What about tax evasion? If an AI does it is it okay because nobody is responsibile?
If applying a proper chain of liability on ai output makes some uses of AI impossible; so be it.
Actually, no. If you published an article where you accidentally copypasta'd text from the wrong email (for example) on a busy day and wound up doing the same thing, it would be an honest mistake, you would be expected to put up a correction and move on with your life as a journalist.
