Some, sure. Harold's death, no. She has no way of knowing that kind of thing on her own.
She's a computer hacker by trade. Do you not think she would figure out that once Harold accessed the trojan, that Samaritan might be able to track it back to him?

But it's not a matter of willing anything because the machine did not come up with the plan that set his death in motion.
While it didn't come up with the plan, it did make the decision to not have Root intervene. And if the machine thought that there was a very high probability that Harold's plan would get him killed, then by not letting Root intervene it was basically willing/allowing for Harold to be sacrificed.

It could still be making a calculation that this is their best chance to take down Samaritan, and so likely sacrificing Harold would be worth it. Without taking down Samaritan, they are all dead anyway most likely.
The main questions I have at this point:
- why the heck is the machine texting her? That is very out of character.
- will we learn more about Samaritan motivations and goals?
- what would happen if the machine and Samaritan directly spoke? I would be afraid to let that happen, because I wonder if their goals are similar, even if methods differ.
