A bill under consideration in New York would provide a private right of action, allowing people to file lawsuits against chatbot owners who violate the law.
Wikipedia, Google, chatgpt etc are not legal authorities or legal professionals.
Yes. And neither are LLMs or their derivatives.
The reason it’s dangerous to get legal or health information from a chatbot is the same reason you wouldn’t want to randomly trust reddit.
And yet people do, and we accept that as a necessary consequence of maintaining free speech as a principal.
The exact arguments being accepted in this thread are the same which led directly to crackdowns in Hungary, China, and Russia.
If you are okay with limiting and regulating LLMs as a form of speech, I promise it’s your speech which will end up limited, and a very small number of companies will control all speech on the internet. You should stop.
Who’s speach is being limited by limiting LLM’S? Because as a legal entity their speech cannot be infringed because the LLM doesn’t have basic rights in the way that a human does.
So what you’re saying is that you don’t want these companies to be held to any legal standard for the information they output (which is different from reddit because the companies can’t be held responsible in the US under section 230 for what their users write).
The chatbot is the output of the company’s data set and somehow you’re saying the company can’t be held responsible for what that output is and if it’s dangerous because it’s curtailing free speech?
I’m gaming out the realistic consequences of what a law will mean. It has nothing to do whatsoever if you approve if these companies or not to try and understand the consequences of what will happen if a law like this passes. You don’t get to pick or choose if the speech is from an LLM or a company that gets limited or from an individual. There is no difference from a legal perspective.
And this law and approach to limiting speech to “protect people” from the stupid consequences of their own action, they aren’t new. And we already know the consequences. Large corporate entities will just get around them or pay an inconsequential fine, and individuals will have their rights curtailed as a result
The entire thread here is falling for an incredibly obvious astroturfing campaign because they associate LLMs with big bad corporations and the real consequences these bad companies have wreaked. But limiting free speech on the internet won’t stop them, what it will stop is our ability to communicate and resist them.

That’s such an interesting take.
