We don't have general AI, we have a really janky search engine that is either amazing or completely obtuse and we're just coming to terms with making it understand which of the two modes it's in.
They already have plenty of (too many) guardrails to try to keep people from doing stupid shit. Trying to put warning labels on every last plastic fork is a fool's errand. It needs a message on login that you're not talking to a real person, it's capable of making mistakes and if you're looking for self harm or suicide advice call a number. well, maybe ANY advice, call a number.

I disagree. Stupid people are ruining the world. In my country, half the population is illiterate and enabling psychopaths. People who have no critical thinking skills are dragging down the rest of humanity. Off the bridge they go, if that saves the species as a whole. Things need to stop getting worse constantly. Let AI take them.
