Now replace that statement with a food processing company, and food poisoning, or an aircraft designer and engineers.

It may be the cause, but zero excuse.

Yes, food poisoning from restaurants happens constantly. There are recalls on physical products constantly. Doctors misdiagnose constantly. What point are you trying to make?

Not gp, but I think the point was that no one would defend those mistakes. The post gp is replying to is someone trying to excuse Anthropic for such a mistake. The expectation is that people should ask for consequences, not make excuses on behalf of the company.

You’re projecting, I didn’t excuse anything

What word would you prefer I use instead of "excuse"?

The correct comparison would be the food producer and poisoned foods out of the factory are really rare.

If you completely change the statement, the meaning is different. What’s your point? No software company obeys by regulatory rules imposed in other industry

It's not like there haven't been 20 high visibility VS code extension malware attacks in the last year.

How could Anthropic have known, they only claim to harbour superintelligence.
