To play devil’s advocate, what ethical safeguards are OpenAI responsible for that they have failed to implement?

This is a wild and difficult to understand technology, even for the people building it. And their safeguards are constantly evolving.

I think you’re attributing to malice what should be attributed to people commercializing a novel technology that is, frankly, being exploited by users.

I'm not the person you're responding to, but I'm more than happy to attribute it to incompetence.

But I don't think that's quite the slam-dunk defense that they're looking for.

I get that argument, but I also don’t think that’s quite fair.

If OpenAI, the market leader with the field’s top talent lured by eye watering pay packages, isn’t competent, then no one really is.
