I think OP's analogy is bad. The difference of OpenAI when comparing to human collaborator is the possibility to replicate once learned skill. Imagine if any single human collaborator learns a skill it is immediately a skill of any human collaborator.

step 7. get away with it as no other party has enough capital (tokens) to prove such infringement ever happened

Rise in energy prices under increasing AI DCs power draw and wasteful usage of clean water in AI DCs cooling are LEAST of my worries regarding AI.

The scale of damage when occurring is what worries me.

Eg. in old times when someone wanted to eavesdrop someones phone they needed ratio of 1:1 in person count, one keeping up the conversation and another one transcripting it up. Then some more people to intrepret that transcript an make conclusions, maybe even decisions what comes next. That is not the reality we leave in today. Today's scale of data processing and storage capabilities makes the ratio of 1:8298979488 (AI:everyone). I don't want us to ever have AI decision making over those transcripts with the same ratio. Possibility seems clearly to be there soon.

Another eg. in old times when someone wanted to dig into vulnerable system they needed ratio of 1:1 in count, one person having time to dig in one system at a time. I don't want to know how many critical and vulnerable systems we have running today in this planet connected to the same network these AI agents are run. Yes, over time you can use AI to find and patch those vulnerabilities but the scale and speed to do harm (exploiting every system at once) is the problem here.

I feel this is a good change as it also emphasizes window/terminal focus is at correct place and user do not unintentionally type the password to another focused place (chat etc.)

the dinosaur is now on my bed, what next?

I've installed GNU/Linux (mostly by Mint distro and Mate desktop) to both of my non-tech parents home laptops like 10 years in a row now. Non-tech in this case means browsing, banking, printing, email, docs and sheets, video conferencing (mostly MS Teams), etc. I keep these machines updated remotely ~once in a month.

After Windows XP/7 family originated support requests have declined like 95% being only 1-2 per year for past years. I don't give all credit to Linux/Mint/Mate/apps but to the fact installing any unnecessary bloat to an average Linux requires a bit more than just clicking "Install me" button on any web page and then (generously instructed by the browser) run that .exe in admin privileges.

Yes there are Flatpak and friends and I'm already a bit scared they will evolve easy enough to install bloat increasing family originated support requests to Windows days.

"Unfortunately, our website is currently unavailable in most European countries."

"And with that, Linus, I'm handing the kernel tree back to you."

I don't take this yet as an argument that he is back.

Actually from where you read that he is coming back?

comment unrelated, but do not track me with ?WT.mc_id=10_16_2018_10_PaulAllen_BG-TW_&WT.tsrc=BGTW&linkId=58288095

Documented instruction set switch which is just implemented poorly. But the real news here seems to be that the ALTINST is set to 1 by default in some C3 generations.

OK, I got it now. How improbable that this is not mainly GDPR related question with this timing :) Still my mistake, sorry.

So the main scope is with IPR and 3rd party licensing matters and GDPR is just another additional side track.

Not commenting about first two. Let me know if still some concerns in GDPR scope as I've been working too heavily with it within last months.

One additional question?;

are you referring on to a case where you have not met the regulations (from the perspective of the information and options you give to your end-users) and authoritative entity comes to you with warning which you are not going to notice

-OR-

are you referring on to a case where personal user data is stored and used without end-user explicit consent and/or knowledge and/or that data "leakage" has caused/will probably cause in the future real damage to this user
