If a carpenter builds a crappy shelf “because” his power tools are not calibrated correctly - that’s a crappy carpenter, not a crappy tool.

If a scientist uses an LLM to write a paper with fabricated citations - that’s a crappy scientist.

AI is not the problem, laziness and negligence is. There needs to be serious social consequences to this kind of thing, otherwise we are tacitly endorsing it.

That's like saying guns aren't the problem, the desire to shoot is the problem. Okay, sure, but wanting something like a metal detector requires us to focus on the more tangible aspect that is the gun.

If I gave you a gun would you start shooting people just because you had one?

The issue with this argument, for anyone who comes after, is not when you give a gun to a SINGLE person, and then ask them "would you do a bad thing".

The issue is when you give EVERYONE guns, and then are surprised when enough people do bad things with them, to create externalities for everyone else.

There is some sort of trip up when personal responsibility, and society wide behaviors, intersect. Sure most people will be reasonable, but the issue is often the cost of the number of irresponsible or outright bad actors.
