That single gun didn't kill hundreds of children, this computing cluster did.

Look, we can also prosecute people responsible, absolutely. But at the very least, the pentagon's AI program should be dismantled.

Some tools shouldn't exist.

Stop shifting blame off of humans. You're playing into their hands.

A human typed shit into an LLM, that LLM spat back garbage, that human took that answer and decided to launch a missile based on that response.

A human made the decision. A human pushed the button.
