Thanks I'm also familiar with the history and have written papers etc. Things have improved rapidly with increased adoption of limited liability. It would be stupid to turn back the clock and throw away all of the benefits because of a few isolated minor problems.

Stop being a dick and calling ideas stupid and attacking me rather than the argument.

I didn’t say roll back limited liability on every industry, I said specifically and limitedly for frontier AI labs because they present more risk of harm and are demonstrating they aren’t managing that responsibility.

The 2008 financial crisis was caused in large part by bankers that openly talked about the fact that securitization of mortgages and the lack of partnership liabilities meant that they didn’t have any risk to the firm or themselves. The AI labs are behaving similarly.

There's nothing special about frontier LLM companies. Singling them out for special financial restrictions is a stupid idea based on nothing but your own irrational and uninformed prejudices. No actual harm has been demonstrated. No one has died.

		> There's nothing special about frontier LLM companies. On the one hand, yes, they're companies like any other. On the other hand, I can count on one hand the number of companies that have publicly declared «We're working on WMDs [0], we don't think we are capable of working on them safely, and we refuse to stop working on them. However, if we get special legal and regulatory treatment we'll be quite happy to put in the stop work order.». So, yeah, there are some special things about the major LLM manufacturers and none of them are good. [0] Anything that has a 10% chance of suddenly destroying all of humanity is a WMD.
