Was this an overdose of alcohol?

marcomourao•1mo ago

> A toxicology report two weeks after his death found that Mr Nelson had died from a fatal combination of alcohol, Xanax and kratom, likely to have caused central nervous system depression that led to asphyxiation.

Why is or why should OpenAI not be open to legal liability here? Any human who did the same would be.

Section 230 of US law only provides immunity for online publishing of "user generated" content. AI slop clearly goes beyond the bounds of "user generated" in my opinion.

AI is a factory for these sort of liability issues.
