Oh, you can, no problem. But you’re also wrong, and getting downvoted because of it.

I'm wrong for pointing out that this entire line of thought - AI companies are trying to shirk blame by pinning it on their software - is unhinged?

No friend, I am not. It is hysterics pure and simple.

  • A few excerpts from https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html worth a careful re-read:

    > In Comments

    > Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.

    > Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.

    > When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."
