   How commonly are human provided target identifications wrong in comparison?

      How often should we allow machine provided targets to go unverified by a human before killing every innocent student inside the target?

      That's Hegeseth's Pentagon today, now that all the experienced generals loyal to the Constitution have been purged.

         How often should we allow human provided targets to go unverified by a human before killing every innocent student inside the target?

         That is, the question of whether targets should be verified is orthogonal to the question of whether humans or AIs supply targeting data with fewer errors.

            Not often, and when it does happen, those that commit criminal negligence should be served justice.

            It shouldn’t be hard to gather intelligence that shows “kids go to school here.”

            Then again, bad American intelligence dragged them into a very expensive war in Iraq on false grounds and we’re still trying to get justice served 23 years later.
