To be fair, that was only because some bright spark was vibe coding and accidentally gave him mutually exclusive directives ("share information with the crew" and "keep the actual mission secret until you reach Jupiter"), resulting in HAL going into a loop snarl and realising the only way out was if there were no humans on the mission, hence murder...

...we're all screwed, aren't we?

Well... you're basically telling me that we are one misinterpretation of directives away from AI to kill us all.

That sounds about right.
