Well yeah. What would someone admitting responsibility do? I really want you to think about it, I’m not just trying to have an argument, I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately.

We want someone specific to blame, that person gets fired, we move along. What did we accomplish besides getting someone who likely didn’t act unilaterally fired?

We are in the era where we realize there is no enforcement mechanism for anything but property theft, and we’ve shrunk that to tangible property theft (vs intellectual)now that AI is around.

I’m afraid the journal’s regrets are all you can expect and in the future you won’t even get that.
