And yet you will never hear the 2A crowd chant the implied variant of their favorite mantra, “AI doesn’t kill people; people kill people.” 🙄
The NDAs and TS/SCI labels are going to obfuscate the decision chain to the point that culpability won’t be able to be established at all.

TBF, this kind of disaster planning is not uncommon even outside the current context.
Most major metropolitan hospitals have disaster planning/simulation committees that regularly game-out responses to catastrophic incidents, including a nuclear bomb incident.
This also isn’t the first time WHO has done this kind of disaster preparedness (yea, even for nuclear weapon usage).
Actually, I think that’s the main process of enshittification, but I don’t think enshittification is always deliberate.
Very often software products are tweaked, changed, or even degraded in an attempt to “simplify” or “improve” a particular user experience at the expense of another UX.
And to make matters worse, some companies end up with a Frankenstein product of confusing functions because they are trying to cater to two entirely different user bases within the same product.
E.g. Microsoft may genuinely have believed that changing their system settings UI in Windows 11 to “consolidate and reduce drift” of system configurations would improve the everyday user experience, but they failed to account for the decades of inertia they’d built up from their prior OS user base and how that would piss off a not-insignificant number of other users who had grown accustomed to the way the product had previously worked.
Maybe, but I think sociopaths have a real “ok, well fuck you, too, then. I’ll do/get it myself!” mentality when it comes to God.
