Indeed. If only we could find them all and kill them before they strike again.

Or, you know, replace them with machines that are safer.

My point was in how we frame these things--the human relationship to technology. Specifically, it's about how we can raise the important point that humans can be made safer by technology, without it being a value statement about the human race.

I don't know how one can relate how good humans are at a task with how good a state-of-the-art machine is at a task without making some sort of value statement about the human race.

Either way there is a huge difference between "I'm fine with hurting people's feelings" and "I'm fine with killing people"

Those aren't the choices.
