We're going to have a social scoring system like China where the car reads the rfid of the upcoming pedestrian and makes a split second decision whether to grease them or you based on that.

aphid_licker posted:Fuuuck Probably. We're really bad at anticipating unintended consequences, and it sounds like making an evolving AI is just asking for them. It's like they never actually understood evolution. Someday, we're going to ask a computer to figure out the most efficient way to route traffic, and the computer will decide that the answer is to exterminate all the humans.

Rhesus Pieces posted:We could cut way down on commuting if everyone with computer touching jobs was encouraged to work from home as much as possible The problem with telecommuting is that you're basically working 24hrs a day. At least physically hauling your meat bag out of the office sets a psychological end to the work day.

SlothfulCobra posted:I did always imagine that self-driving cars could really optimize driving for better traffic flow and fuel management, but only if they were all networked together so that the system could actually make decisions across the board. Things like pushing extra traffic into side roads, squeezing cross traffic through little gaps between cars without needing to slow down, or fully utilizing the bandwidth of roads without a lot of complex maneuvering (or the human resistance to merging late). The great thing about the fleet wide coordination system is that it lets tech companies rent seek by charging more for priority access in traffic.

If they don't pay you, they certainly aren't going to get you a work permit, which then becomes leverage against you when your tourist visa runs out. Lol at being an unpaid illegal immigrant.

I don't know, that sounds like a lot of work to organize and sort and you'd have to pay live people to do it. Why not have users do the curating for you according to a set format?

It's loving evil. If you're late with the rent, they automatically cover it and you're on the hook for it. They'll also loan you the deposit up front, so you're never not in hock to them. It's great from the pov of the landlord because you don't have to do anything but collect the monthly payment.

I don't really understand why so many chuds are defending boeing to the death over an obvious gently caress up. Is Brietbart spinning this as a poorly trained non-white pilots thing?

Don't forget that boeing made the warning system that alerts the pilots to a disagreement between the mcas aoa sensor and the rest of the planes telemetry inputs an option.
