I wish this wasn't being handled in a partisan way. Surely Democrat and Republican state attorneys general can agree that questions need answers about this incident. I really wish they had collaborated on this one.

@PogoWasRight@infosec.exchange I wonder what would happend if OpenAI "unintentionally" deleted these records. Would they then be fined out the ass? 🤭 Or would the government just go, "Well gosh-diggety-darn-it, we can do anything now, fiddlesticks"

@PogoWasRight@infosec.exchange So there are consequences to #AI malfeasance⁉️ The losses are not socialized⁉️ Will actual people be held responsible⁉️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOSaLtcqob8&list=RDMOSaLtcqob8&start_radio=1
