latestarter99.bsky.social @latestarter99.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Seriously, companies are held liable for criminal acts all the time. It's not hard. But also, laws should be written to hold a person (eg, the CEO), or persons, responsible for an act done in the name of a company. It's not hard. Unless, of course, you're a gutless politician. 000
latestarter99.bsky.social @latestarter99.bsky.social · 26/09/2026It's probably anecdotal, but it seems to me that for every use of AI to benefit mankind, there are many more AI use cases for sheer intellectual laziness and malevolence.
