> industrial machinery that chops off hands In the US South there's a ton of poultry workers that have lost fingers and parts of hands to machinery. It's gotten a lot better lately, but for a long time it was a very bad problem. Since most of these workers were Black or from Latin America, there was very little was done to protect them.
"Since most of these workers were Black or from Latin America," more like, "Since most of these workers are poor,"
American Descendents of Slavery haven’t gotten their reparations yet, and LatAm is still an American-managed cluster fuck.

#103The answer from the federation is unconscionable. They blamed the boy and then said they could not be held responsible. Fuck off, a kid made a reasonable kid movement. If the robot wasn't ready to be around children, it shouldn't have been deployed around children. And there should have been a big red button that immediately everything, within reach of every player.
Are you really going to go for the "think of the children" argument...? Although I do agree with you about having an e-stop.
"OMG did you just use the 'think of the children' fallacy??? Invalid!"

Honestly, as someone that researches ML, this is my major concern. It isn't AGI that has the potential to kill us, it is current ML systems that can't handle OOD data and engineers put it in place because "that's the user's fault." Same reason we have Teslas crashing. AI safety might talk about AGI a lot, but their main area of research is modern systems and concerns over that. OOD data is really hard to deal with FW…

#106Looks like a robot that could load a 20kg bar of metal into a lathe.

There are in fact times when we need to think about children. If we don't, humanity won't have much of a future.
