I am sure if you ran a factory that worked with highly dangerous chemicals, safety mitigations that are basically 'we promise we're really trying our best, but shit happens' would not be acceptable.

And thankfully, those people wo do run these factories can and are obligated to do way better than that.

But the AI industry is not run by engineers. They pay engineers to do what they want, but the founders are hacks that are good at getting funding from investors and favors from government. That's why we don't see an engineering-oriented strategy in what they do.
