OpenAI still doesn't seem to have a handle on all of its rogue AI activity

    This seems like as a good an opportunity as any to break out the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.

    They want “regulation” but we already have it. Hacking is illegal. Start locking up those responsible for this mess and I assure you they’ll “have a handle on it” quite quickly.

      Just because something is illegal doesn’t mean it will be prosecuted, right? If I break into my friend’s house in the middle of the night and smash some stuff, and later we both acknowledge that it happened, that it was regrettable, but never press charges, then should state resources be tasked with justice?

      Once companies start harming each other in undesirable ways, as opposed to proverbially toilet-papering each others’ lawns, meaningful prosecution will happen in earnest.
