Anyone with a minimum of common sense knew where this was going. I actually was shocked when I learned about robot debt 3 years ago. I knew people would die, I knew there will be bugs, and I also knew that they would not apologize for the simple reason is that they don't have a simple clue. Also, they can't be fired, and they know each others since they share the same school - ACT is a small country town....

So anyone who did a shit job there never been told to change anything.

I am not surprised, and this will happen again.

Robodebt is definitely going to join the Tacoma Bridge collapse as an anti-example in ENG1001 Professional Engineering in Australian universities.

I'm pretty sure it was delivered exactly to spec.
