No it didn't, if there was oversight they saw the target and didn't care. AI is not the problem, its the scapegoat. They want to be able to shrug and point at AI, saying there was a misclassification and that it wasn't their fault. Meanwhile they ignore the fact that a human at any point in time could have stopped the attack or double checked the target. They chose not to because they don't care. Collateral damage, wanton destruction, and civilian casualties is the goal.

This is the WHOLE point of why these generative models have been pushed so hard the past couple of years. They tested the waters to see if people would accept "it's the computer's fault" as an acceptable excuse, and then slammed on the gas.

Accountability sinks, as Dan Davies has named them, are the whole point. It's everything a slimy corporate CEO or government official has ever wanted.

Can we get a better source on this?

What about the other schools that the US and Israel have hit? What about the hospitals and civilian residential areas? What about the fact that the US military seems to want credit for the bombing?

So we're just sailing into a time where AI will get blamed for anything and everything and, no-one will get held accountable or punished?

Oh for sure, they’re taking big tech’s lead.

Tech has been blaming AI for layoffs for a couple years now, when they hired an insane number of people during and after COVID. They literally hired to lay off. I found this graph illustrative of the boom and bust.

The people in this administration love when tech can get away with something (see the Cambridge Analytica scandal around 2016) because they will too.

It's not like before a.i. the US was held responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of children.

It's all fun and games until someone loses a school.
