        Yep, if you tell an AI to do something, you are at least partially to blame for whatever it does. They shouldn’t be able to avoid responsibility that easily.

        That’s kind if what Germany told Google. "If you have AI write your search summaries, you are responsible for checking its work and liable for its mistakes.

          It kind of did. They got a slap on the wrist and will still do it. It’s the 4th or 5th time they got busted for doing it.
