Look no one's cosigning her application to Mensa but the issue isn't whether she's an idiot or whether it was responsible for the service to report her, it's whether she should be arrested (much less convicted) of a felony for talking to a chatbot.

As has been said she wasn't talking to a person so I wouldn't expect a conspiracy charge to stick. On the other hand there should probably be some kind of deterrent for doing this because Tumbler Ridge has already happened. I'm just not sure whatever law might prevent the next one exists yet (here or in the US)

You're being obtuse. Something did happen: she was arrested on felony charges. What didn't happen was something that would usually be considered a crime.

The fact is she was arrested for talking to a computer. Society will have to figure out if that's what should have happened.

For sure. The article specifically states nvidia but I imagine the agent doesn't care what's running the model.

The problem is the R9700 is a 9070XT with double the ram for $1k more. Even considering the rampocalypse $1k for 16 more gigs is Fing insane. That's double what even Apple charges for RAM! The other problem is 32GB isn't really enough. Sure you can fit the weights at Q8 but then you have to choose between a tiny context window or dumbing down the model with even smaller quants. Even with triple that RAM local models are only barely usable for real work.
