AI is special because it is much speedier and doesn't have second thoughts. Both of those are disadvantages in this case.
The person can be sued for negligent, retaliatory, and otherwise crappy decision making.
People often tend to stop in these situations.
Judicially, you can hold a person accountable for "accidentally" killing 100+ children easier than you can a technology system. The technology system will always be used as the scapegoat for the government's atrocities.
I'm not sure why the "people make mistakes too" crowd can't seem to grasp this concept.
Do you have three examples from 20 years in Afghanistan of analysts being held judicially accountable for target selection errors?
Seems like a weird goalpost.
Doesn't invalidate my point. I didn't say it was easy to hold a person accountable, just easier than a techonology system, whose owners point the finger back at government.
I think we both want to see justice for those 100+ innocent children murdered (as well as those innocent lives in Afghanistan and Iraq) by the U.S. Military's incompentence.
There were never "weapons of mass destruction," although Congress was mislead to believe there was.
In the Minab attack, Congress wasn't even given the option to authorize.
