- Comment on Teen killed himself after ‘months of encouragement from ChatGPT’, lawsuit claims 17 hours ago:
Some of it is buried in the text and not laid out in a conversational format. There are several times where ChatGPT did give him feedback on actual techniques.
For some reason, I can’t copy and paste, but at the bottom of page 12 and the top of page 13, the filing refers to Adam and ChatGPT discussing viable items to best hang himself, including what could be used as a solid anchor and the weight that a Jiu-Jitsu belt could support.
It explained mechanics of hangings, with detailed info on unconsciousness and brain-dead windows.
They actively discuss dosage amounts of Amitriptyline that would be deadly with details around how much Adam had taken.
That’s why I think ChatGPT is blatantly responsible, with the information provided in the filing. I think the shock is the hypocrisy of OpenAI claiming to research AI ethically, but making their security weak enough for a child to get around it.
It feels akin to a bleach company saying their cap is child safe, but really it just has a different shape and no childproofing at all.

I would say it’s more liable than a google search because the kid was uploading pictures of various attempts/details and getting feedback specific to his situation.
He uploaded pictures of failed attempts and got advice on how to improve his technique. He discussed details of prescription dosages with details on what and how much he had taken.
Yeah, you can find info on Google, but if you send Google a picture of ligature marks on your neck from a partial hanging, Google doesn’t give you specific details on how to finish the job.

ChatGPT told him how to tie the noose and even gave a load bearing analysis of the noose setup. It offered to write the suicide note. Here’s a link to the lawsuit.

I read some of that lawsuit. OpenAI murdered that kid.

I’m seeing this issue in communities on other servers posted by users in other servers. Might not just be a Lemmy.zip issue.

Yeah I was just reading a book that mentioned something Feynman said and it’s something I feel is true for me as well.
Don’t remember word for word but it was something like “Any subject is interesting if you look deep enough.”
I feel like Feynman and I could have a riveting conversation about knitting for 3 hours even though neither of us are passionate about it.
Those are the people I want to talk to.
- Comment on Roblox faces scrutiny after banning YouTuber ‘Schlep' amid ongoing controversy 5 days ago:
Just a reminder.
Roblox is a chatroom disguised as a game. More than half of their user base is over the age of 16.
- Comment on Inside the Underground Trade of ‘Flipper Zero’ Tech to Break into Cars 6 days ago:
I did this the last time an article about Flipper Zero’s hacking abilities went viral. I was worried about the same thing. Never came to pass, but now I use it to find microchips in lost animals so it was worth it.
- Comment on SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink 1 week ago:
It shouldn’t be all or nothing. It should be diversified.
Yeah, there are rural locations where Starlink makes sense but also there are a lot of urban places that it would never work in.

My ex’s kid had exactly the same thing happen to him. It started on Roblox then moved to Discord.

- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 2 weeks ago:
I just tried this and I get an alert that unlock isn’t fully available. Seems it can’t access web request API.
I’ll give it a spin out of curiosity. I pay for Kagi anyway. I’m very opposed to Google.

It’s not on iOS or I would. I use uBlock on my PC.

I don’t use Chrome so whatever they did is affecting Adblock elsewhere too.

No uBlock on my phone. :(

I noticed yesterday and it’s also affecting other sites where Google serves ads, like Reddit.
- Comment on HELP HIM. 2 weeks ago:
For those who don’t know, this is how some labs use rats and mice when the are uncooperative. I don’t think the intent is to hurt the mouse, just to contain it briefly.
Not saying it’s okay or not okay. Just saying why it’s like this.
- Comment on Periodic reminder to get your library cards and fill out museum surveys. 3 weeks ago:
To add to this:
Mid-Continent Library in the Kansas City Metro has the biggest selection that I’ve seen in this area. Idk about Wichita or St Louis.
You can sign up for the KC Library, Johnson County Library, and Mid-Continent Library card online if you live in an area it covers.
You can get a Johnson County Library card if you don’t live in that area, but you have to go in person to sign up.
There are also quite a few libraries around the US that will let you sign up regardless of where you live if you make a donation.

I collect library cards like other people collect Pokémon cards. The more I get, the more audiobooks are available to me through apps like Libby.
- Comment on Tesla loses Autopilot wrongful death case in $329 million verdict 3 weeks ago:
I think the problem is that for a long time Tesla, and specifically Elon, went around telling everyone how great their autopilot was. Turns out that was all exaggeration and sometimes flat out lying.
They showed videos of the car driving on its own. Later, we found out it was actually being controlled remotely.
Yeah, the driver wasn’t operating the vehicle safely but, Tesla told him that he didn’t have to.
- Comment on ‘If I switch it off, my girlfriend might think I’m cheating’: inside the rise of couples location sharing 5 weeks ago:
It sounds like you and your wife have a healthy relationship. That’s awesome! But, for possessive and controlling relationships, surveillance can be harmful.
Personally, my location is shared with my sister. I’d share it with my partner but he is a bit of a Luddite. I wouldn’t be sharing because he asked, I would be doing it so he could find me easily in an emergency.
And, I wouldn’t ask him to share his. If he turned it on and wanted me to have it, that’s cool. And if not, that’s cool too.

- Comment on Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed 1 month ago:
Yeah I don’t get it here. I kinda get them not wanting to deal with porn when you can’t verify consent and age of the performers, but the games don’t make sense because there aren’t live performers to worry about.
Mostly that stuff annoys me on Steam because it’s always at the top when I’m sorting by trending/popular, but I don’t think it needs to be removed either.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
The real answer is that it depends on your age. Probably also race and gender. People will react differently to each.
An older adult ready for retirement? Delightful!
A kid trying to be different and impress girls! Cringey.

- Comment on Force is the last refuge of the incompetent 1 month ago:
Oh also, the zoning and type of property matters too. A strip mall has different requirements than an office or hotel. Obviously
- Comment on Force is the last refuge of the incompetent 1 month ago:
I’ll try to look some up today but I think it varies by lease and by loan. You can’t apply the same rules to a warehouse as an office as a grocery store. Also, big spaces are different than small restaurants. Might not be consequences for a Chipotle but there could be for a grocery store in the same strip mall. The leases negotiated between the landlord and the tenant also have to be approved by the lender.
The whole thing is called “going dark”, meaning they are still paying rent but not operating on the premises. It causes the borrower/landlord to go into something called “cash management”. They lose the ability to collect rents directly. It all gets sent to a special lockbox that the lender has access to. They use those funds to post the payment and other things like that. They send a portion back to the borrow for operating expenses then hold onto the rest. The borrower also has to pay cash management and bank account fees when this happens.
I remember there was a big fight at a shopping center near me because a grocery store wanted to move the grocery location and open a giant liquor store in its place but the landlord didn’t like that. I believe they ended up terminating the lease and a different grocery store moved in. My company didn’t handle that loan so I don’t know the details but I knew that the loan was likely the real reason for the fight.
- Comment on Force is the last refuge of the incompetent 1 month ago:
Their mortgages have clauses that cost them when tenants are not operating onsite. It devalues restaurants and stores in the area. I’m not saying it’s right. It’s just how it works. Tenants have to do business on site during the lease if they pay fees and their landlords have to pay the banks.

This motherfucker doesn’t care about us in MO at all. Numerous other problems here, but he’d rather kiss the ring and hope Trump nominates him for some position so he can wreck a lot more.

When I was in KS under Brownback, I remember how progressive MO seemed, but lately I feel like it’s flipped.
Don’t get me wrong, KS still has some assholes but MO really seems to be swinging for the fences.
