It said people taste like bacon.

Wouldn't that be advocating suicide? Cause I'm pretty sure it's illegal to tell a person to kill themselves and actually mean it.

From the article, it's not telling people to kill themselves, it's simulating what an incapacitated patient would say to help the doctor and family members can make a decision on whether to resuscitate them or not. Incredibly misleading, of course, because AI involves no independent thought and is just a computer program guessing what someone would say based on things they've said in the past. Which I'm going to suggest might not be a good thing if that person has a history of depression.
