That’s not really an LLM thing though - if she made the same comment on a Facebook post, she’d face the same consequences.
Is there no difference between posting something publicly and prompting a tool privately? Intent seems different to me.
I’ve said some pretty obscene things to Siri out of frustration and haven’t gotten arrested yet.
While I'm not a lawyer and this isn't legal advice, Florida's law seems to cover any electronic communication of threats like they made. Telling Siri off is quite different from what they did.
