The New Yorker has an excellent piece on why the Titan submersible was going to kill someone eventually. The hubris of the OceansGate founder is just tragic - as hubris is. The larger ethos of Tech Bros culture - "move fast, break shit" - is going to screw us over. Maybe it will be mass dislocations caused by AI, but Titan was simply a dramatic manifestation of a flawed world view.
