      If a HumanA pushed and convinced HumanB to kill themselves, then HumanA caused it. IMO they murdered them. It doesn’t matter if they didn’t pull the trigger. I don’t care what the legal definitions say.

      If a chatbot did the same thing, it’s no different. Except in this case, it’s a team of developers behind it that did so, that allowed it to do so. Character.ai has blood on their hands, should be completely dismantled, and every single person at that company tried for manslaughter.

        Your comment might cause me to do something. You’re responsible. I don’t care what the legal definitions say.

      A very poor Lemmy article headline. The linked article says “alleged” and clearly there were multiple factors involved.

              Or they changed the headline and due to caches CDNs or other reasons you didn’t get the newer one.

              archive.today has your original headline cached.

              Thanks for posting. While it’s a needlessly provocative headline, if that’s what the article headline was, then that is what the Lemmy one should be.
