  1. Get an account
  2. Screw with it till you can get it to give you terrible advice
  3. Sue
  4. Use cash to pay off debt, take a long vacation, get actual professional help/medication/etc
  5. Improved mental health

The system works

3.5 Their lawyer successfully argues that, while the AI is the product, the company shouldn't be held accountable for their product ~~lying~~ hallucinating because it would set a bad precedent for the industry

3.2 sent to arbitration because EULA

[–] chiliedogg 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

More and more.companies are dropping arbitration agreements these days because more consumers are realizing the consideration in the contract that allows them.to have mandatory arbitration requires the company to pay for the arbiter win or lose.

I had an issue with a vehicle that the dealership was refusing to repair. I looked up their arbitration process l and then looked up the arbitration firm.

When I pointed out to the manager of the dealership that the arbitration would cost them 5 grand even if they won, they fixed the car.

This sounds like a good strategy for small businesses trying that shit. I wonder how much it affects big ones though?

Any lawyer work the big companies need done is probably gonna be over 5k just to start.

[–] chiliedogg 3 points 1 month ago

Yes, but the person suing also needs to pay legal fees. Are you really going to hire an attorney over a broken phone?

With arbitration, the business has to pay for the entire process, win or lose.

3.3 the secret contract-ninjas break into your house and do mortal kombat shit to your skeleton

Lol yeah... I know it's all fucked. Only way I've found to not let it completely overwhelm me with resignation or impotent rage is to look for those little "malicious compliance" opportunities. Even if only for joking around about. They're getting rarer and harder to find though. Big sigh.

They'll show you the agreement you made when signing up, that it's not genuine or real authoritative advice and should always be okayed by an actual mental health professional. Then they'll ask you gor that professional. Then they'll counter-sue for bad publicity and defamation of their products, calculating profits lost in terms of how long the court case is taking.

... AI mental health? For real? How is it legal?

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If I had to guess: no laws banning it yet

Is HIIPPA and the FDA a joke to them? There's meant to be a zillon things to stop this kinda thing.

HIPAA does not apply to as many entities as it probably should. These services likely avoid it by considering themselves wellness services, rather than healthcare.

People don't realize language models can regurgitate info to other people.

I think this is the real answer. And when new tech is in a legal gray zone you go with what makes you money now, not what could be a legal battle later.

It's not. Anywhere. But the how and why it is illegal is not yet settled. It's new enough that an "entrepreneur" can throw up a bullshit smokescreen, make a pile of money, and scuttle them away before the world figures out how to apply the law correctly.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

No thing AI related its legal or ilegal. Its not regulated at all.

At that point you should punch the dislike button, unsubscribe, and leave a negative comment so the tuber can promptly ignore.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago

Don't leave a comment, that creates engagement and helps the video.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I haven't seen this but recently I have seen a buttload of videos that have corny AI voiceovers. Like I came across 3 tonight alone just looking for videos on massive failures in machinery. I don't get why they are used, the corny jokes absolutely kill any immersion and enjoyment. I started disliking them to hopefully get them out of my feeds

[–] MTK 8 points 1 month ago

Is that mental healthy services for the AI? Because at this point in I can see why it needs it

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

It's like autocorrect for your brain.

So the like button stops you from hitting it because of the sponsor...?

How did the person who made this not realise it makes no sense?
