It says a lot about HN that a story like this has so much resistance getting any real traction here.

This sucks but the only solution is to make companies censor the models, which is a solution we all hate, so there’s that.

Thank you, “we just have to accept that these systems will occasionally kill children” is a perfect example of the type of mindset I was criticizing.

>“we just have to accept that these systems will occasionally kill children”

I think this a generally a good mindset to have.

I just see the hyper obsessive "safety" culture corrupting things. We as a society are so so afraid of any risk that we're paralysing ourselves.

That sounds a lot like the people who gloss over school shootings because they want to be able to play with guns.

Wow. Incredible framing, leaving absolutely no room for a rebuttal to have any legitimate, reasonable position.

I believe the de-utility of risk of school shootings is less than the utility of having people have the freedom to own guns.
