That’s how AI is going to kill us… It will fake something and make us bomb ourselves.

It doesn’t help that the people currently in charge are fucking stupid, trigger happy, and emotionally insecure.

Competent people would have taken care of this problem. Looks like you can count the competent Americans on one hand.
