    @momotro018 claims US military AI nearly struck a Chinese ship

    An X post states that US military reliance on AI in operations nearly led American forces to attack a Chinese vessel due to an AI misjudgment, and says some assessment holds the incident 'almost caused a war.' The same post ties this to an earlier claim that AI misjudgment caused the bombing of an Iranian elementary school.
