Human error causes most crashes — but autonomous systems introduce new risks: software failures, edge cases, outages, and public distrust. Safety isn’t just statistical. It’s systemic.

![What a surprise to find a comic strip on Artificial Intelligence written by somebody called Montaigne!: Marion Montaigne présente l’Intelligence artificielle: https://youtu.be/DtdoNksCtmE
Indeed, Montaigne discusses in the Essays whether the savages found mainly in Brazil are human beings or not and whether they should be considered humans, the way the barbarians in Ancient Greece have been finally recognised as such. As it is growing more and more difficult to recognise an artificial intelligence from a human being; I think reconsidering this classic is relevant as it challenges again human identity.

This point was also addressed in the film the Dispute in Valladolid, which is a reenactment of a historical event, or by Descartes with his concepts of “cogito, ergo sum” or “machina animata”.

From the conquistadors until now the concept of humanity has evolved. On the other hand, what is common to humanity, at each step, from the cannibals till now; is some human beings’ will to build weapons to kill others. Each time a new science has risen, some people have tried to find out how to use it to kill (physics, biology, chemistry and now AI).
