"Groundbreaking" never was MS's forte, they typically let startups test ideas and then buy or swipe an idea when it catches on.

I was just looking for Milton's Swingline stapler.

Boeing invented and tested the concept in the 90's.

I would assume the likes Waymo collect and perhaps produce training video on such. If not, they are lazy.

RubberneckGPT?

> That feels like an odd thing to be frightened of. It's not Mars where there are minutes of latency. Why would the Philippines - specifically - be any more (or less) concerning than if the drivers were in a building a kilometer away from the vehicle?

Half-way across the world and thus more prone to latency spikes. Not something you want when you need to be able to react quickly. Or have you never played a game on a server on the other side of the pacific?

Why is their AI having trouble identifying emergency barriers, uniformed people making hand-signals, big puddles, and emergency vehicles? It doesn't seem like the kind of thing AI typically fails at.

Maybe the bot-car should ask the passengers for help if not sure. I suspect it often over-identifies such that engineers turned down the reaction threshold. Instead, try asking the damned humans. "Possible emergency situation ahead. I plan to stop and wait. Please confirm if this is a the proper action. Press 'Other' for other options."

What country's leaders wouldn't want similar goon-modes embedded?

Almost all models are confused about their identity.

As more products and services have software and bots developed in unfriendly nations, the US banning them could put the USA at an economic disadvantage to nations that allow them. I'm not disputing its a legitimate concern, only saying the tradeoff may grow harsher over time.

We are already paying much more for EVs than we otherwise could. (Although part of that is from trade disputes rather than concerns over rogue XiWare.)

Maybe the military's plan for extra thick shielding is why Space-X is building such large rockets. Elon may be using manned missions largely as guise.

> if you think "being a sexual tease" is a bad thing, you could think that.

The implication was that is the only or default way women would build a system. If he said "it was programmed on a planet known for its pleasure industries" then it would play better.

Finally a real populist.

He sure is getting MAGA panties in bunches.
