Comment on OpenAI Says It's Scanning Users' ChatGPT Conversations and Reporting Content to the Police
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 16 hours agoHow is talking to a bot a crime now?
Planning to do a crime is criminal misconduct. If you’re talking to a bot with the intent to gather resources to perform a crime, you’re in the process of committing the crime you intended to perform.

Wrong. An attempt to commit a crime is a crime. Planning it is not. I can plan to rob a bank all I want. You would have to prove intent. Typing things in a chat doesn’t prove intent.

There are so many actions that are crimes. Doing X with intent to Y is a crime. Proving intent can be tricky. But that’s up to the DA to argue.

That’s what I said. Typing things into a chat doesn’t prove intent. For the same reason google is not monitoring searches and sending them to police. You can type anything you want into a search box. It’s never a crime.
