These companies are insolvent and these stories were designed to scare the public, and governments, into implementing regulations that designate these AI corporations the "responsible stewards" for this technology. The ultimate goal is to block competitors and open source alternatives.

They don't know how to make enough money pay their investors so they are resorting to trying to scare the public into submission.

> You will notice the trust keyword here. Any operation (such as IO) that has an underlying unsafe mechanism (such as the @print builtin that std.stdio.print uses), must be explicitly trusted, as it is inherently impure.

just document the impure operations and stop forcing the programmer to type extra characters.
