I really hope at Nuremberg 2.0 that “I was just following the AI” gets as much punishment as “I was just following orders”.

Speeding Up the “Kill Chain”: Pentagon Bombs Thousands of Targets in Iran Using Palantir AI
(www.democracynow.org)
I hope it gets even more punishment.
I think the legal questions should be fairly simple. The company selling the AI service should be liable for every error made and by that I mean all the way up to the management into the CEO's office. Of course, that will never happen but it should happen.
The consequences can't simply be monetary, because these people are stupidly wealthy. If they're found culpable, send them to prison.
AND take away their money.
Thousands of targets fully vetted as being accurate and ethical? Is this going to be one of those wars that no admits to being part of due to the crimes and failures?
