> features are never "responsible" for toxicity or any other behavior.

people have a habit of blaming tech: "computer says no", using it as an excuse- machine learning algos encourage users to do dumb things. someone joked llm stood for "limited liability machine" and thats apt.

otoh its scapegoating, but also its like an abstraction over responsibility.

everyone knows computers produce unexpected results. "what can you do?"

tech IS to blame in practice, but thats too convenient.
