Thankfully we learned our lesson and will never make that mistake again.
@cammerman Frankly, given their penchant for naming their companies and products after evil lately, I'm quite surprised there isn't a "Radium AI" out there.

Radium is just but one element on the periodic table, all isotopes of which being highly unstable. There's noting evil nor good about it.
The things the tech bros name their "creations" after are deliberately constructed as such evils.

@cammerman Exactly. Every shiny new technology gets sold as magic before people understand the risks. Radiation then, AI and other tools now. Innovation is great, but guardrails matter.

@cammerman I once had a wrist watch with dials and numbers that glowed in the dark. And that was only 50 years ago.

@cammerman the thing is, radiations wasn't that poorly understood. factory bosses worked out that it was harmful when lots of their workers who were exposed to it a lot kept coming down sick with the same symptoms. they just surpressed the information for as long as they could, because people finding out would be bad for business
just like how fossil fuel companies were the first to discover global warming and made sure to proactively spread misinformation about it
