AI has had like 14 Chernobyl moments. Wasn't the US using AI to bomb Iran? That include a whole school of girls IIRC. And guess what? No one cares.
Chernobyl spread significant radiation over 8 million people with effects lasting for decades / generations. It spread detectable radiation across most of the globe.
I truly feel for the tragedy of the schoolgirls, but as Stalin said: one death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic. Chernobyl was a statistic level event, so many individual tragedies that people can't feel them anymore.
So we need one cool death? Basically another killer like the one that brought in the whole Luigi case.
