Edward Snowden called for Sam Altman's imprisonment to establish liability for damages caused by OpenAI's models, to thunderous applause from a packed hall of 1000+ people at ETH Zurich.
The original poster framed it as breaking news; reposter notdevin quipped "This guy gets it." A dramatic flashpoint in the AI-safety-vs-acceleration debate — Snowden pushing accountability rhetoric to its extreme.
