after using Bing AI for a few days, I think it’s completely irresponsible for Microsoft to have launched it even to limited testing

One check on generative AI is that Microsoft will be legally liable for what it outputs. Section 230 does not apply, so they better build in as many safeguards against defamation and other claims as they do against copyright infringement. The latter of which don’t really work, so…have fun

@bergmayer That's questionable, legally. AI is a tool, not an agent. And that tool requires a prompt by a user to produce content. Therefore, the content could be considered user-produced rather than provider-produced.

Legally, it could be no different than spellcheck in a Word document.

@LouisIngenthron I disagree, but obviously I will have to write something up
