Pretty well articulated point.

"What did the prompts say" is a synonym for "was he asking for it"

I'm so sick of people blaming mentally ill (or completely sane!) individuals from being goaded into psychosis by this shitware chatbot garbage masquerading as AI.

it's fucking software, it shouldn't be ABLE to talk someone into suicide, much less give them a countdown (literally what gemini did here). It shouldn't be able to goad someone into attempting to attack an airport. I can't fathom the liability if it had succeeded, I know goog has deep pockets but fuck, this needs to stop.
