Unnecessarily hostile comment, too bad that attitude didn’t stay with Reddit.

AI doesn’t make me squeamish at all. Ignoring the context in which I stayed my background with automation was a choice, but the tub is using the general public to beta test hazardous equipment. Humans make errors and can be held responsible; corporations putting people at risk for no responsibility is reckless.
