Doesn't change a thing, unforgivable.

Repeat after me: a computer can never be held accountable, therefor a computer must absolutely fucking not be part of the decision making process of a kill chain.
Jesus Christ.
I think the administration is lying, as usual. They have brains like teenagers and thought, "killing off their families will show them who's boss and they will cower in fear at our mighty might! And then the people will rise up and revolt against their wounded leaders". But in fact what actually happened is they gave the extreme right wing in Iran even more control by doing this. The extremists got to say, "I told you they want to destroy our civilization and take our resources" and the people unified and sided with leadership against the foreign invader.
Yes. The only newsworthy thing about this is that the administration is sufficiently embarassed that it's throwing AI under the bus. Nobody in the rest of the world is buying this cover story. The US is a terror regime that deliberately tortures and murders civilians.
Gonna be really fvcking awful hearing about what went on at the concentration camps in a few years.
They know it doesn't win wars. Israel doesn't want a resolved war. Only pure destruction of Iran, and all political power in US is Israel first. When cruelty makes the enemy uppitty, rulership just yells harder about how they just hate America.

I'm not sure of that. The myth that you can win wars from the air is a tenacious one, often propagated by people whose salary depends on not understanding the fallacy behind it.

Israel and Iran both want to establish a (local) hegemony, and both are each other's greatest local rival. Both want the other exterminated or at least reduced to a vassal that poses no threat to their nascent empire.
The resolution offered by the JCPOA (2015) basically gave Iran free reign to resume their activities, so long as they weren't a threat to the global powers. It's quite understandable that Israel would be just as upset with that solution as Iran was previously with the sanctions.
None of that excuses the cruelty either side inflicts (directly or indirectly) on the people in their way. Imperialism sucks.

This is Israeli lie repeated by genocide seekers often for public propaganda supporting hate for emotional war agenda, rather than any rational gains for Americans in serving Israel. It doesn't make JCPOA perfect. But pure demonic evil to force a war instead of any arguments for compliance improvements and trading Iranian prosperity for more certainty over nuclear programs.
I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing. I was talking about Iran backing Hezbollah and other anti-Israeli factions, which I'm pretty sure they didn't exactly make a secret of. The JCPOA was very much lacking in restrictions in that department, because ultimately, it's a local problem that the global powers didn't care too much about. This was definitely a flaw in an otherwise good deal.
You mention compliance, so I assume you mean Israel's claim about the "secret" nuclear program? Yes, that one was a very transparent lie. Iran had very good reasons to comply and get the great powers off its case. They'd have been very stupid to risk throwing away diplomatic credibility by randomly breaking deals, even unofficial ones. They wanted the sanctions gone, after all, which is why they were absolutely transparent about their compliance.
The alleged "secret" program had stopped in 2009 and been covered in the IAEA report. The director of the IAEA even said as much when Israel made that claim. They straight up fabricated a nuclear threat that wasn't there to goad the US (well, Trump really) into supporting their genocidal ambitions. That is absolutely evil.
They could also very much want the right wing in power in Iran which will then give them enough acceptance in the international community to invade and feed the ever hungry war machine. Palantir usage and therefore profits literally rise if that happens, so it’s in their interest to ensure war as much as possible.
I think the Pentagon is looking for a fall guy for the attack and they know Palantir will take it. While the Obama administration still continued bombings and assassinations, the administration required approval to go through the White House rather than trust internal DoD procedures. This went away when Trump took office.
My guess is that the DoD didn't have the procedures in place to figure this shit out but they now need someone to blame.
Who ever ordered it is responsible for blindly listening to the random generator.
Target-list work that once took hours was condensed into minutes.
Imagine wasting hours on a decision like this. /s
I would spend hours making sure I don't buy the wrong wheel bearing, in case I lose $123. Losing 123 lives because you don't cross-reference a target list is inexcusable.
They didn't lose 123 lives. The other team did
Where I was, the day-one news was mostly focused on the US bombing a girls school. It made the war unpopular from the very start.
This is a gross way to “other” a bunch of children. Please be more mindful in your thoughts next time.
Not a single company, it's the pretrained generative "AI" that's the issue
Whoopsie! Will try better next time, appreciate the absolute void of consequences.
