    “People are going to murder anyway, so why even make murder illegal?”

    You are correct, you should make rules even understanding that they will be broken by some.

      You can enforce consequences for murder. You can investigate and differentiate a murder from an accidental death. Don’t be disingenuous.

        A death is a death.

        I can quote from memory a case in my country, in the 80’s, where a man assaulted a couple, killed the woman and was about to kill the man.

        The killer got tackled and beat to death by the widower. The sole survivor was sent to trial for murder regardless being under mortal peril.

        Got acquited on the appeal. First instance deemed it an excessive act, regardless self defence.

        LLM code can cause deaths (i.e. in hospital software), or otherwise great human or material loses (i.e., bank software or a shelter’s software), or even cultural loses (it actually does them right now, but you can also think about i.e. a museum software).
