As they improve, we’ll likely trust AI models with more and more responsibility. But if their autonomous decisions end up causing harm, our current legal frameworks may not be up to scratch.
Interesting. A quick search around finds someone confusing a bot into selling them a Chevy Tahoe for $1 at the end of last year.
Can’t tell whether that one went to court. I can see an argument that a reasonable person ought to think that something was wrong with the bot or the deal, especially since they deliberately confused the bot, making a strong case in favour of the dealership.
Now, if they’d haggled it down to half price without being quite so obvious, that might have made an interesting court case.
