What are you talking about of course scenario A is theft. Full on theft?
- Dylan16807 5d agoDid you miss the word "regarded"?
- apexalpha 5d agoNo.
- Dylan16807 4d agoIn both situations the lawnmower scoots up and takes fuel without paying, so it's meeting the basic requirements for theft. But the question was whether the lawnmower was trying to commit theft, as much as a computer can try to do things. In scenario A there's strong evidence it got confused and did its best to make a normal purchase. Lawnmower A didn't regard its actions as theft, while lawnmower B did.
