Unusual German win. Now make it EU law.
This is a great way to handle it. Just let liability fall on on those responsible for the hazard. Your shitty AI just told some idiot to drink bleach? Your AI company is liable for the damages. Simple, effective.
Seems obvious to me! You made it, your liable.
It's not a just "you've made it" though.
It's a "You push and shove it HARD down people's throat to the point it's almost the only thing they see now apart from ads".
I remember accidentally searching through google once. The AI summary took half the page and there were a whopping 6 ads. Which is almost two pages of scrolling.
So I don't blame users for taking the easy way out and just using the summary. Especially if they haven't heard of uBO + Firefox on mobile. Rawdogging the modern internet is terrible UX. Popups, autoplay, consent forms with a bajillion data "partners". And ads, ads and even more ads.
