That's all very reasonable. It should be true. But it's not true. If it were, OpenAI shareholders would be facing criminal charges.

There are dozens of ongoing wrongful death, manslaughter and negligence claims going through the courts. I won't insult you by providing links.

I can't find a single criminal charge. Can you insult me by providing just one?

It is true, and it can be true, if people hold other people to account. Accountability is the issue, stop normalizing it, your message normalizes it.

Are you really suggesting that if only we were a bit more outraged, then finally the powerful people would be held accountable?

I'm mad. Like, it's-time-for-guillotines levels of mad. But what I'm mad about is that this is normal. It has been normal for my entire life. Cases where investors are imprisoned for the actions of their companies are astoundingly rare. It's been made quite clear by now that there's an inexhaustible supply of CEO's willing to gamble on getting rich and getting out rather than getting arrested, targeting them doesn't work. Nor do fines, that's just the cost of doing business. Crime pays, and it pays well enough to pay your fines and still have plenty left over. Being a top investor in a company that breaks the law needs to be riskier.

Acknowledging the problems with normal is the first step towards a new normal with fewer problems. You never get there if you see every offense as some kinda black swan event.
