@gargron they think IA will be faultless, not like the human creators and want to transfer responsibilities to the machine, a virtual god. -

@Gargron This is what gets me about AI fantasies: The idea that our human flaws are somehow entirely unrelated to our human strengths, and the assumption that you could create intelligence that has one but not the other.
