Air Canada must pay damages after chatbot lies to grieving passenger about discount | Airline tried arguing virtual assistant was solely responsible for its own actions::Airline tried arguing virtual assistant was solely responsible for its own actions
Yeah so, we have a way of making chat bots that have safe gaurds to not sell overly discounted tickets or whatever. Its the normal dumb chatbots we’ve used for years. They aren’t smart, they can’t tell you a story, they can’t pull random law out of their ass. No its the ones with a handful of canned responses with a handful of questions it can answer because that’s all it’s programmed to do. Using an LLM for this is not only overkill but fucking stupid. LLM’s are only able to say what they think is the next thing in a conversation. If you ask it for a discount it’ll probably say “sure here’s 15% off” then not actually apply it.
