In my opinion it's about time to clarify rules and standards for automated systems that can for example kill someone if their output is incorrect.

ChatGPT and stable diffusion are killing people now? I think incorrect output of regular software is actually killing people but we don't need a license to write code.
I chose my words to include this "regular software".

Do you plan to integrate ChatGPT or Stable Diffusion to a high-risk system? I would advise against it at this time.

Maybe we should, for high risk applications.
You think software is bad now? Imagine if the world got 1% as much practice writing software because it was a licensed profession.
Why is that a problem for software but not other licensed professions such as law and and *actual* engineers.
Well, for starters I don’t want to live in a world with better lawyers, and secondly, by “actual engineers” do you mean civil engineers? In the US anyway, most engineers are not licensed excepting some civil engineers.
