Still, I have no idea why OpenAI & co. are not being sued for these hacks.
So, your question is spot on- I think the speed will be an issue. On resilience, I am more optimistic.
The old quote, "The wheels of justice turn slowly, but they grind very fine" (as well as I can remember it) seems to apply. I expect lawsuits to start landing in the coming years.
They were held responsible for basically misleading people, and that's 'complicated'.
If OpenAI 'software' goes out and does something, it's OpenAI's fault.
If Walmart revs up a truck, points it downtown, and 'lets the truck go' ... that is Walmart's fault.
There's nothing complicated about liability, no need to see their internal emails, no need to gather 'intent'.
This not like Instagram 'social harms' either, which is more like Tobacco.
We don't need complicated thinking - agents are not externalized for their controllers.
'It's just software'.
The fact we're even having discussions about it just crazy frankly.
OpenAI broke into HuggingFace, that's it.
HF can sue them, or not, or whatever.
We already have the laws. It is just software. But somehow people are confused that it is not.
