The machine didn't do anything. They built a targeting "AI" that is trained on bullshit data, which likely doesn't distinguish between Hamas targets and civilians, but it's ultimately these genocidal bastards who decide when to kill and they choose to do so far more often than not. They're throwing the "AI" buzzword in to add a layer of abstraction between themselves and the genocide they're perpetrating.

And knowing some Israelis, people to say this know full well what they are doing, just think everybody else is either a bastard or an idiot.
It's a real cultural problem, they have a very simplistic society in terms of discussing politics and morality, seems like some small town, only it's a country of 8 million.
Human life dictated by a machine on who to kill. You need to be so fucking cold and evil to be okay with this.
Not only is it heinous it’s also obvious this is just a testing ground for it. Think about it, a testing ground that the test is how many you can kill using AI. We need an amendment to the Geneva convention
Even if you got US and Israel to sign it, Russia, China and The Saudis would never.
Who do you think is selling this capability to Israel? Hint: it's not the Saudis.
Ai is trained on input data, and if their input data is on past idf strikes then it's no fucking wonder they've killed so many journalists.
this probably wasn't supposed to be funny but holy shit lol
Input data was literally just a map of Gaza
The AI in question: targets.forEach(target => target.isHamas = true);
ClassCastException: Cannot cast null to Boolean
Beep boop beep. Wirrrr. Targeting backup test data due to failure in main subroutine. Target acquired.
targets.add(civilians).add(aid workers).add(journalists)
Brrr beeep boop bop
Wasn't JavaScript evil enough?
International law, who needs it I guess? Seems to me like Israel doesn't need allies.
I'm sure the machine running it was quite warm actually.
So they built skynet?
Don't disrespect Skynet by comparing it with our trash pattern-storing-and-matching "AI". It figured out time travel all on it's own after all.
Sounds more like Project Insight to me
Woo hoo, Weapons of Math Destruction meet Weapons of Mass Destruction. (good book by the way)
The purpose of a system is what it does
According to the cybernetician, the purpose of a system is what it does. This is a basic dictum. It stands for bald fact, which makes a better starting point in seeking understanding than the familiar attributions of good intention, prejudices about expectations, moral judgment, or sheer ignorance of circumstances.
The AI is "supposed" to identify targets, but in reality, the system's purpose is to justify indiscriminate murder.
The AI was just RNG applied to a census.
1% of which was just a bowl of guacamole.
It looks like they tried "kill all the poor".
