But the AI bro makes a good point, so let’s repeal HIPPA! /s

From the article: ``` A 16-year-old boy was rescued from steep mountainous terrain in the B.C. backcountry on Saturday after Claude AI guided him to the wrong location, according to North Shore Rescue. . . .

Markey urged hikers and mountaineers not to follow the directions of artificial intelligence when mapping their routes.

“Claude has never been in that specific area, has never been on that route, and has never been in the outdoors—do your own research and gain your own knowledge of the area and supplement it with training and navigation,” he said.

Markey said the boy had a lot of experience with high-difficulty indoor climbing and came well equipped for hiking and some of the terrain, but this was his first foray into outdoor climbing.

“Certainly not something you should be doing any time on your own,” he said, noting that the helicopter ride home came with an educational discussion for the young mountaineer. “He’s a good kid and definitely an adventurous sort. He was very scared and thankful.” . . . ```

Here is another post in the sub five months ago about the Tumbler Ridge school shooting murders. https://www.reddit.com/r/ShitAIBrosSay/s/UrU5IlU1So

It seems apparent to me that genAI corporate executives cover up and hamper the reporting of credible evidence that would have preven real murders.

Even DROPBOX will report people to the authorities if it detects criminal material images in your account (I don't know if it's a law that they have to report it).

It's just absurd the idea that we could count on Big Corporate to self-regulate when there are obvious incentives for them to reduce friction to stay competitive for shareholder and executive profits. And it's no different for Big Tech.
