Yep, there should be consequences for actions the model was running on behalf of someone.

What would you propose?

Probably arresting the CEOs pushing dangerous technology onto the rest of society with zero guardrails?

I would have them pay a fine that is maybe 10x the time wasted by the police.

It was zero time, the report went to spam.

Well yes, in this case, but we need legislation around this. This was a 'warning shot' in a way. Shows that we don't really have a way to deal with human overloading. Like a DDOS on support and services. Imagine the 'anonymous tips' come from a hostile country. We need better tools to deal with it than we have now. And Plantir is not the answer

kinda scary seeing ai spit out fake crime tips like that, now im worried roleplay apps could hallucinate something messed up mid chat and ruin the whole thing.

And the penalty? A handshake from all the media.

A normal person does this, and they’re paying a fine plus facing criminal convictions for falsifying a police report

Do you have any idea how many false tips come in following crimes such as this?

That's strange. Link it up to Flock and then the reports won't be fake.
