You get fines for intentional false calls.
There’s a difference between prank calling 911, and calling 911 because you misunderstood the severity of a situation. Now let the latter happen multiple times, they may fine you.

Humans make innovations to make their lives easier.
AI is no exception.
Electric light? Don’t wanna keep refilling lamps
Cotton gin? A lot easier to separate cotton vs. by hand
Let the list go on

I know meta doubled their headcount, Amazon usually has around 15,000 interns (2021 numbers). 75% of them get an offer, let’s say only 60% accept. (I.e 60% return to full time, probably higher but can’t confirm.)
That’s 9000/year. Factor in industry hire and new grad hire, wouldn’t be surprised if they were hiring 15,000/year.

Presumably no,
A back door for one person, is a back door for everyone. Companies who are serious about security, understand this and don’t have back doors.
NSA does have tools to brute force encryptions, but they take time and can be patched out (assuming it’s a software, not hardware, solution.)
