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.

EM drives were intended for interstellar travel, not Earth orbit. The very slight but constant acceleration was claimed to get one close to the speed of light in a few years.

Spock's implication was that if not tempered by men, women would speak overly sexual. The two assumptions here is that first, women need to be tempered by men, and second that left on their own they'd become sexual teases. One fluffs the male ego, the other fluffs men's sexual fantasies.

Didn't work out well for the Enterprise.

(Warning: clip is misogynistic. The visitor asking about the computer is from our time, by the way.)

The proposed technique may detect existing weapons, but how feasible is it to make an undetectable formula?

Does that mean we actually get to date green Orion women?

What, only works in orbit? Shit, whadda tease
