we should not be letting any company get away with blaming AI for their failures. I'm not even sure how we got to this point. people are like "it's just a tool" okay so is a forklift and we still hold somebody responsible when it goes wrong and hurts someone. this is YOUR AI!

My mom had parents who whipped her with a switch till she bled for talking back, who openly favored her brother, and who were so poor she was literally malnourished. Also they took in her grandfather with TB and she got TB from him.

My mom desperately wished I understood how good I had it, on multiple levels. I did eventually learn to appreciate her but it took more time than she would have liked 😂
