A buddy has been testing whether his LLMs he puts together are properly jailbroken by asking them to explain how to build the silliest bomb possible. I find that terribly amusing. Unfortunately they don't usually come up with anything particularly silly.
I read the Annihilation books first and so was almost disappointed by the movie, but they did it differently in such a good way that I still really loved it in the end. Excellent stuff all around.
Microswitch lever fatigue is what this sounds like and it's really not the kind of thing that a QA team could ever detect without years of testing. This is just how it'll go as we add more bells and whistles to all our cars. More obscure new issues will be identified years down the line and added to institutional knowledge for future use.
The only way the hood can pop open on the highway is if it was open before you departed, so the warning would alert the user just like the switch did before they can drive to a dangerous speed.
The lowest tip value should be higher to reflect current tip pressuring tactics.
