I don't know. How about we ask some of the peoples who have been destroyed on the word of a single infallible malicious leader.
Oh wait, we can't. They're dead.
Any other questions?
- gretch 1y agoI’m saying this has happened multiple times in human history already. How does doing it with a computer add anything?
- DrillShopper 1y agoLook at the British Post Office scandal - "the computer is always right". Say what you will about a human, but unless you're a religious zealot or blind you generally don't believe the leader to be infallible. But through the magic of silicon you can shut people up more effectively. This makes computers an accelerator of the problem, and therefore warrants caution any time their output may be relied upon for life and death decisions.
