Fuckley @opinionhaver.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Yeah OpenAI or Anthropic or whoever might go bankrupt, some specific use cases like ‘therapists’ might be litigated to oblivion.

Reposted by @mmm-345.bsky.socialEthan Mollick @emollick.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I think most people who have been closely watching AI for the past few years are likely surprised by how relatively rare terrible AI incidents have been, given a billion users overall and hundreds of millions of corporate users.
