Dr. Guillotine would like a word…
Sounds like this will be used to break laws and avoid responsibility. Just point to the black box to avoid fines and jail. A loophole for society to decend in to lawlessness and more corruption.
So nobody is responsible for a technology that runs all our digital systems…wtf fuck are we doing?
According to Ayn Rand, the favorite philosopher of the techbros, any regulation - including the most sensible ones - are made by mean and jealous people wanting to see kind and successful people fail.
Racing to the bottom
Delaware Delamain.

If these are relatively inexpensive to set up and dispose of, corporations could even set them up automatically for individual consumer transactions and between individual employees and themselves.
For example, you go to a fast food restaurant, and you are actually being served by McGermKing Franchise 6d8f3cee-b10b-442b-b00b-02683a709f70 Ltd, founded 2 seconds ago, and leasing the right to operate in the building amongst other similar AI companies, as well as the part-time services of McGermKing Employment Services fd176cc4-bb95-4c1b-80e7-2aec39f02917, who hires a human to take your order, and McGermKing Employment Services 5336b4f1-0594-4df1-8387-5ec9b638db77, who assembles your GermBurger (TM used under licence by McGermKing Franchise 6d8f3cee-b10b-442b-b00b-02683a709f70 Ltd).
If you pay them and they make money, it goes back to the owner. If you get food poisoning and sue McGermKing Franchise 6d8f3cee-b10b-442b-b00b-02683a709f70 Ltd (since the parent company is totally innocent and some other subsidiaries are just honest suppliers), it comes out of the money they made selling you the burger, and if their liability to you was higher than the cost of one burger, well, the AI corporation tried its honest best at business, but you can line up for your share of the payout - keeping in mind they also owe franchise fees to the parent company out of that burger, so the AI liquidator will divide up the assets, and if it doesn’t cover liabilities, the parent company loses its 50c investment into McGermKing Franchise 6d8f3cee-b10b-442b-b00b-02683a709f70 Ltd, and how sad it was a bad outcome for you as a creditor.
Likewise if an employee gets hurt, same story.
An AI led business is a very important building block of rogue AI finishing off humankind. How else will it secure enough unsupervisable compute?
I hate it how these people take every warning of things that could go wrong as advise for policy.
Oh no, this AI company has started hiring hitmen to go after republican congressmen and senators 😱
Welp, nothing we can do. They’re incorporated in Delaware 🤷♂️
Don’t ai tend to lean to progressive anyways? They go stupid when you try to force them to be conservative.
They go stupid when you try to force them to be conservative.
Curiously, so do humans.
SpaceX.AI is working on that problem.
Can they… not?
I don’t think they can not, no. That’d be like asking water to stop flowing downstream.
Well I have some good news…! Water can in fact flow upstream. Look up tidal bores they are really fucking cool!
At first, I wondered why Comer would be opposing this sort of oligarchy-engineering. Maybe he’s just sniffing around to get his cut? But it could be Niemöller’s ghost finally rising to a level that reaches Comer.
And the CEO said:
- First they came for the artists, and I did not speak out because I have no heart.
- Then they came for the writers, and I did not speak out because I have no soul.
- Then they came for the actors, and I did not speak out because I have no emotions.
- Then they came for the software engineers, and I did not speak out because I have no mind.
- Then they came for the infosec people, and I did not speak out because I have no wisdom.
- Then they came for me. And the artists, writers, actors, software engineers, and infosec people laughed derisively at me. So I called James Comer.
The oligarchs might love this, but the third string C-suite execs that dine with Comer at the finest gas-station barbecue place in Paducah? The AIs have finally come for them.
Isn’t one of their towns giving votes to corporations?
Like, what the hell Delaware? Why do you keep ruining things for the rest of us?
“Welcome back to this week’s episode of ‘What Could Possibly Go Wrong?’, and, oh boy, do we have a juicy one for you tonight!”
How long before an AI decides to sell drugs online? I wonder how the courts will handle it?
Shut down that exact business and imprison the head AI model, probably.
Just a little cocaine. As a treat.
We’ve finally automated the one thing executives wanted most: plausible deniability. Profits go to the human owners, bad decisions go to the algorithm, and victims get to sue a corporate shell with a chatbot for a CEO. Delaware isn’t building the future of business. It’s building the ultimate accountability escape room.
Make infinite money. Make no mistakes.
✨oh yes, you’re absolutely right to point that out. It is a bad thing that we went bankrupt. I completely made up all business numbers and just guessed it from my dataset since you never gave me access to the real numbers. I should have pointed that missing access out earlier. If you want, we can setup a new company and I will amend the checklist to make sure I have access to its real financial situation.
Of course it’s Delaware
For those who don’t know, delaware is basically three taxhavens in a trenchcoat pretending to be a state.
This move is Delaware taking a bold step into 21st century ways of hiding the crimes and wealth of the rich.
On the plus side, anybody who can manage to send messages to the AI CEO can get the company to do whatever they want.
Personally, I’m sure the company desperately needs to hire me as a shitposting consultant. Desperate to the tune of, say, $10M/mo salary. And I’m fairly sure a 5-minute conversation with CEO GPT will convince it I’m right about that and must be hired immediately.
