It's never an AI's fault since it's up to a human to implement the AI and put in a process that prevents this stuff from happening.

So blame humans even if an AI wrote some bad code.



I agree but then again it’s always a humans fault in the end. So probably a root cause will have a bit more neuance. I was more thinking of the possible headlines and how that would potentially affect the public AI debate. Since this event is big enough to actually get the attention of eg risk management at not-insignificant orgs.


> but then again it’s always a humans fault in the end

Disagree, a human might be the cause/trigger, but the fault is pretty much always systemic. A whole lot of things has to happen for that last person to cause the problem.


Also agree. “What” build the system though? (Humans)

Edit: and more important who governed the system, ie made decisions about maintainance, staffing, training, processes and so on
