I'm no prophet, but I'm gonna guess that it *will* happen again, and that the fancy autocomplete isn't sorry and won't remember shit.

@[email protected] I still get annoyed when the automated voice at the station tells me how sorry it is that my train is late.
Without contrition, there is no apology - it's all just bullshit designed to let the real culprits hide

@Floppy very much so. There’s no connection between its ability to produce output that looks like an apology and its ability to prevent the issue from recurring.

You’d hope that a ‘head of AI safety’ would understand that.
