what function are terms of service if when you break them your service is unaltered
im not a lawyer but im pretty sure the type of document that would be the one that would waive their burden of responsibility would be, you know, a waiver. given that they're arguing from a ToS they did not enforce they probably do not do that
using your ToS as a defense despite your ToS objectively failing here is not a good precedent to set for the sanctity of your ToS 
Why arw answering yo yourself? Looks like a bot.
sorry for having consecutive thoughts won't happen again 
You gotta become the aliens from Arrival and have all your thoughts for all events that will ever occur available ahead of time.
She's literally our best poster
ChatGPT gave him a pep talk and then offered to write a suicide note
Yeah because if there's one thing depressed and people that want to self-harm read it's the tos on the magic computer.
This is a real problem--teens using death as an excuse to duck OpenAI's penalties from violating the TOS
AI company founded by the "car company whose self driving turns itself off a second before collision to blame the driver" guy is using the "this bong is for tobacco use only 
" defence for their suicide coach AI.
So openAI decided that a clause in the TOS was a good enough guardrail against giving out info on how to kill yourself? And this was after multiple instances of them deliberately putting in guards against other behavior that they didn't want?
That's a pretty fucking stupid legal case.
setting precedent for upcoming gun law, which is where anyone can buy any gun, but you have to pinky swear not to use the gun to do crimes before you take it home
Isn't this basically current gun law?
I live in a communist state on the west coast so we have some regulation, but they're pretty accurately describing the gun show loophole.
I suppose this was inevitable. Their "terms of service" will probably protect them from other things too, like if it tells people to drink bleach or something, they'll say it violates TOS to follow hallucinatory directions from it.
I say we bring back Scaphism for the AI dorks
I don't know what that is but I agree with you completely.
Scaphism is a purported ancient method of execution in which a person would be sandwiched between two small boats with just their limbs and head sticking out, which would then be smeared with milk and honey and allowed to fester with vermin.
They had some creative execution methods back in the day, didn't they?
