The Warrant of Trade from Warhammer 40k: Rogue Trader (2023) but instead of a load of small text it just says "I can do what I want."

Not to worry. I have a Warrant of Trade.

The best part was there were witnesses who verified that I was talking about how talented she was at dinner, before I ran into her. So she was forced to accept that I was telling the truth when we talked.

I’m an asshole. I made a younger lawyer cry this evening.

I gave her my honest opinion about her.

I told her she was amazing, and brave, and deserved every good thing that she was getting in her new job. And that I was super proud of her.

I’m not ashamed. And no one can stop me.

I’m a bit tipsy right now. How serious are you? It’ll be a lift, but I’m feeling really fucking punchy tonight.

Which probably means the lawyer dude suit needs to stay in the closet.

My conduct can be measured against the reasonable lawyer standard. And Claude’s can’t. Ergo: product liability.

…I face civil liability for the harms my speech causes my clients.

Perhaps I’m being naive, but why should a different liability regime apply to GenAI?

β€œAh,” you could say, professional negligence is different than strict product liability.

But I’m not a product, and GenAI is.

Like, this doesn’t seem difficult to me.

Generative AI is a product. If I make a product that is unreasonably dangerous, I’m liable for the reasonably foreseeable harms it causes.

The fact that GenAI produces speech doesn’t change things. I’m a lawyer. Most of my product is speech. And…

One of my favorite things about Space Marines is that they appreciate the importance of Librarians.

Because Librarians have reality altering powers.

And when they shush you? It’s permanent.

I'll note that most Cabal follow an Emperor and are OBSESSED with shoulder pads.

Talent in a jar is worth every penny you pay for it.

See, the problem with this is that gravity's acceleration is constant. And there's an upper limit to how fast you can fall. It feels like we're strapped to a SpaceX rocket that's successfully launched but then activated "ICBM mode."

Is it bait? It could be bait.

Still, that kind of thing is really annoying, because it's premised on just flat out denying someone else's experience. Definitely not okay.
