I'm not the original poster.
Nexperia, I don't know. But the US did have issues with China having access to the technology from its Dutch sister company ASML.

So it's not far-fetched to think that the US has something to do with this issue with Nexperia as well.
If it were a Chinese office with a Netherlands owning company, you can be sure the
That couldn't possibly happen!
Foreign companies (Tesla excepted) are not allowed to own more than 49% of Chinese-based companies/joint ventures.
To be fair, (with the exception of Tesla), foreign companies are not allowed to own more than 49% of Chinese companies.
So if international law was truly applicable, then there would be parity between nations about foreign majority ownership.
When you buy your ticket, you can just specify that you're disabled and that you need a paper ticket as a special accomodation. After all, they already have these questions for people who need other accomodations (for wheelchairs or food). It shouldn't be too hard to add one more to the list.
And for the passengers that don't have the foresight to check that box when they buy the ticket, I'll bet Ryan Air will be more than happy to supply a paper ticket for an extra $75 fee per boarding pass (or per leg of the journey).
And yet, I know French workers that were able to bootstrap their own businesses in part thanks to the generous severance packages they got from their former employers.
Zoox doesn't have a steering wheel or pedals. You do not have control of it (except for the emergency red stop button).
Right now, Zoox can not even deviate from a hardcoded preprogrammed route, so it's a long ways to be true self-driving either.
Notice how the routes it does in San Francisco or in Vegas are always the same circuits.
Getting a DUI on it wouldn't make any sense.
You're thinking too small.
If we can do this with a plane, we can do this with a continuous giant ski lift (or a sky lift).
You're not wrong, but you should know that Copilot is behind the foundational models.
And using Copilot as a benchmark for anything isn't an accurate representation of what's possible right now.
You're getting confused.
Llama does not claim to be open source. It only claims to be open weights.
Tesla was the first one to run out of EV tax credits. That's because Tesla is the biggest EV car manufacturer in the US market and those tax credits are capped based on the number of units sold. In other words, those tax credits were mostly helping his smaller competitors, not Tesla.
As to the rest of his antics, I can't really explain them either.
It's not news that ignoring robots.txt gets you access to more content on the web.
It's also not news that this is usually not going to get you any better content.
Even Google ignores the robots.txt. They made that decision after the California DMV (Department of Motor Vehicle) blocked them with their robots.txt
And frankly, I can't blame Google.
If you don't want your content to be accessed by everyone, don't put it up on the public internet.
Badly written bots are a separate issue.
Yes, this was decided after the California DMV decided to use their robots.tx not to have their site indexed.
Google's reasoning was that it would become a pretty bad search engine if it didn't couldn't index the DMV site.
The legal firm concluded that Cruise tried, but failed to point out the importance when technical errors happened.
The legal firm is a fucking paid shill and fixer. Their rationalization about the buffering of the video doesn't make any sense. And even if you could believe their excuse for the press conference, it doesn't explain why Cruise lied to the authorities also.
And yes, the legal firm hired by Cruise over the incident absolutely lambasted it for having serious corporate culture problems.
"lambasted" is not the word I'd use.
Any four-year-old would understand that the law firm completely lied about what happened during the press conference.
The authorities may have received the video later.
You're right. I may have jumped the gun in my outrage. But why not say so, and why not reschedule a second press conference where the real video is shown (but not given to the reporters).
And why wasn't the video leaked/published yet anyhow? Dozens of Unions, citizen's organizations, and tabloids are probably suing right now to get a copy of everything. If anyone in authority has ever been shown everything, mark my words, they're on the GM/Cruise payroll. Those cars were driving on our public streets unsupervised (and they're starting again in Arizona). We have every right to see what happened.
Also, guess who is a major sponsor of NPR?
That's right. GM/Chevrolet (main financial backer of Cruise) sponsors NPR.

No wonder most of the story has been scrubbed and watered down.
That said, your citation doesn't support your assertion that Cruise either lied at the press conference, or...
Do you work for Cruise? What do you think this means?
"Cruise, which owns a fleet of robotaxis in San Francisco, then failed to adequately inform regulators of the self-driving vehicle's full role in the incident."
...or even refused to share the video.
I'll admit, that part has already been scrubbed from the NPR article (even the original audio is no longer playable!!)
Here are the edits:
https://wayback-api.archive.or...
Please back up the edits (take screenshots and download all the versions) before even the version history gets scrubbed. It's very easy for NPR to do that, they just need to change their robots.txt/sitemap.xml and the way back machine will respect it.
Also, if anyone can find the original audio version (because I can't find it), please make copies of it as well.
You had mail, but the super-user read it, and deleted it!
