CatDaaaady··on Who should be held accountable when an AI Agent (accidentally) acts maliciously?
I don't see how this is such an unclear legal question. If I fire a computer program that mistakenly causes another person harm, its my fault. Or it would be the maker of the program's fault. I feel we have established pattern for this already.

Until we can agree whether AI is conscious, which we never will, AI and AI agents are just property working on behalf of humans.

I could see a future where AI companies/services indemnify consumers who use their agents but _not_ indemnify corporations that use their services.

CatDaaaady··on Fisker bankruptcy hits major speed bump as fleet sale is now in question
> American Lease, says in a new filing that Fisker now believes there is no way to transfer the information connected to each SUV to a new server not owned by the bankrupt EV startup.

I am really curious what type information transfer is not possible? Perhaps all Fisker SUVs communicate with Fisker.com and American Lease will not get ownership of that domain.

CatDaaaady··on Hadoop Reaches 1.0
It was already prod ready in my opinion. I think this release is more of a "polish" thing since some people are timid to run "0.20" code in prod.
