    A sign of future things to come - a prelude to AI.....

It's nothing new, and it's perpetrated by human, not artificial, intelligence.

Major corporations, which MGM certainly is, carry insurance for this sort of thing. So they may lose a little money and time, but that's all.

It's proof you shouldn't over rely on technology or automate everything because when things go wrong they really go wrong.  I suspect a lot of people are going to be getting comped stays this week.
