Ah, the "hidden" costs of #abstractions, because apparently, no one ever realized that making things easier could come with a downside...🤦‍♂️ Welcome to the world of #computing, where "focusing on the bigger picture" is just code for "forgetting how stuff actually works"—but hey, at least we have more #memory now to store all that ignorance! 🧠💾

Some overlap with the Lowenstein book but this's worth a look 'Israel labeled its 2021 war in Gaza as the “first AI War”. Since then, Israel has been promoting itself as a leader in developing battlefield-tested AI weapons and tools. For instance, to show and market its capabilities to European allies, a week before October 7, 2023, Israel brought the NATO military committee chair to the Gaza border to showcase Israel’s automated border' #israel #gaza #genocide #stateViolence #technology #combatAutomation https://www.thecairoreview.com/essays/gaza-israels-ai-human-laboratory/
