... Are you actually taking a "blame the baby" approach to "baby run over by lawnmower"?

Margaret was bringing in the groceries and her 18 month old went to pick a flower while she tried to get something unstuck in the trunk. Quiet street, nothing crazy going on. Kid darted off to the other side of the driveway, slipped on the dew on a small grassy incline and shot under the robot mower that had none of the safety features I mentioned. Margaret thought it was safe to let her child be within eyesight but out of reach in the front yard while the neighbor mowed the lawn, unaware there was no one there.

Are you satisfied that maybe the manufacturer has some blame in this tragedy, or are you going to continue to maintain that the maker of a thing is morally unencumbered by the impact that thing has on the world?

Consider what the world would be like if chatgpt just... Didn't engage with what appeared to be delusional lines of thinking? Or if, even if you promised it was for a story, it said it wasn't able to help you construct a plausible narrative to justify killing your mother?

We do not need the tool, and so defending unsafe design choices is just "personal responsibility stops at the cash register".

Fun fact: I think that firearm and firearm accessory manufacturers continued drive for high sales at all costs should make them legally liable for certain attrocities committed with the tools they made.
The argument that it's the users fault for using the tool in the way it was designed isn't a compelling defense, particularly when the accusation is that it was reckless to make it in the first place.
