Considering there have already been news stories of AI chatbots telling users to kill themselves and feeding into suicidal ideation, it is absolutely not a reliable fact that the AI will not cause further harm.

Edit: It’s also not just a problem with suicidal ideation. The founder of Business Insider recently wrote a post on his blog about “using AI to generate an AI news room cast”. He openly admits to making comments to the female AI newscaster he created that would definitively be sexual harassment irl. The damn thing complimented him on his directness, reinforcing this creepy asshat being a sex pest to the point that he saw nothing wrong or embarassing about posting about this shit publicly.
