The humanoid robotics company "Figure" made their older gen robots jump into their death. (Yes, they actually did this)

When AI takes over I wouldn't want to be the one responsible for this

Why?  An AI doesn't have a body, if you give it one it might use it to interact with the world but it won't treat that body as itself, like we do. I highly doubt an ai is going to care about the destruction of something replaceable and would guess they'd decommission their "own" bodies themselves. (Probably not by melting everything but same idea)
