   For a contrarian take: I think it’s true. When there’s a war, you make this kind of tragic mistakes, either with AI or humans.

   The point is that the war itself is pointless. The tragic mistakes, and the other civilian deaths, accidental or totally expected as “collateral damage”, are not part of some project that, despite its costs, makes the world a better place.

   Though of course the AI bros take is also “don’t hold us accountable for anything, ever”, and that’s pathetic.

      Hegseth dismatled units whose work was "ensuring this does not happen all that often". They were too soft and woke Then bragged about lethality. Then president proceeded to threaten more war crimes then again in escalating amounts.

      Same people are murdering civilian on boats in pacific.

      Civilian deaths are by design.
