People made AI to lie. When companies make something that does not work and promote it as reliable, that’s on the people doing that.
When faulty products are used by people, that’s on them.
I can no more blame AI than I could a car used during a robbery . Both are tools
but what if the car lied though.
The car’s ai lied.

It’s exactly like the “guns kill people” arguments. I would like all this AI stuff to go away, the tech is not ready to be used.

Saying Generative AI lies is attributing the ability to reason to it. That’s not what it’s doing. It can’t think. It doesn’t “understand”.
So at best it can fabricate information by choosing the statistically best word that comes next based on its training set. That’s why there is a distinction between Generative AI hallucinations and actual lying. Humans lie. They tell untruths because they have a motive to. The Generative AI can’t have a motive.
