I think the administration is lying, as usual. They have brains like teenagers and thought, "killing off their families will show them who's boss and they will cower in fear at our mighty might! And then the people will rise up and revolt against their wounded leaders". But in fact what actually happened is they gave the extreme right wing in Iran even more control by doing this. The extremists got to say, "I told you they want to destroy our civilization and take our resources" and the people unified and sided with leadership against the foreign invader.

Doesn't change a thing, unforgivable.
Holding people accountable that are responsible is kind of the most important fucking thing...
It doesn't mean you let anyone in the government off, it means when we get a rational government again, we hold this admin and the corps they collaborate with responsible.
You (and this should be really obvious) can't hold everyone responsible to account if you don't know who all was responsible.
Seems like they are blaming palantir. I see no names of the people who hit the button, at all.
They going to take all of palantir to court the next administration?

When a corporation breaks the law you think the only options are:
-
Everyone at the company is punished
-
No one is punished
They didn't with Theranos it was the CEO and company president they went after.
Which they won't do to Palantir because of the obvious interest in surveillance they both share.
They aren't going to do anything to anyone about this. If they were they wouldn't have tried scapegoating AI
Repeat after me: a computer can never be held accountable, therefor a computer must absolutely fucking not be part of the decision making process of a kill chain.
Jesus Christ.
Who ever ordered it is responsible for blindly listening to the random generator.
I think the Pentagon is looking for a fall guy for the attack and they know Palantir will take it. While the Obama administration still continued bombings and assassinations, the administration required approval to go through the White House rather than trust internal DoD procedures. This went away when Trump took office.
My guess is that the DoD didn't have the procedures in place to figure this shit out but they now need someone to blame.
Not a single company, it's the pretrained generative "AI" that's the issue
Target-list work that once took hours was condensed into minutes.
Imagine wasting hours on a decision like this. /s
I would spend hours making sure I don't buy the wrong wheel bearing, in case I lose $123. Losing 123 lives because you don't cross-reference a target list is inexcusable.
They didn't lose 123 lives. The other team did
Where I was, the day-one news was mostly focused on the US bombing a girls school. It made the war unpopular from the very start.
This is a gross way to “other” a bunch of children. Please be more mindful in your thoughts next time.
Whoopsie! Will try better next time, appreciate the absolute void of consequences.
