    Oh fuck off, as if this government is capable of making decisions that police corporate excess. Going by Labors track record they’ll sabotage this somehow like only target businesses with less than $1 million in turnover.

    Surely the owner/manager of a “bot” or animal is responsible for it. Say like a savage wolf or escaped lion, or metal robot, or computer-program bot. Owner/manager should not only face fines, but something that actually punishes them. (Our “corrections” system, let’s face it, is often about punishment.) That something should include deprivation of liberty, at the judges mercy. Fines would be a token amount that the corporation might pay, but there is surely a human ultimately responsible for pushing a button to unleash a computer program.

    We already have laws that cover this, use them.

    Anyone who is impressed by the function or output of a LLM, to a level they believe it’s in any way adjacent to intelligence, must be quarantined from the decision making processes that affect anyone not similarly cognitively impaired.

    It’s embarrassing that our elected officials believe this shit is special.

      It’s like if a shooter claims that they aren’t responsible for someone’s death because they only pulled the trigger and the gun’s mechanism did the rest; AI does not and cannot have a will of its own and a separate law shouldn’t be needed to assign responsibility for its actions.

    …whilst also permitting diesel and natural gas powered data centers to be built. In short massively fucking hypocritical.

    They’re already failing to prevent harm, and being helped to carry out that harm by the Australian government.
