Comment Detroit has no one to blame but themselves (Score 1) 498

They continually avoid modernization efforts (either through a quest for profits or stonewalling from their unions) and their factories fall further and further behind in efficiency. In order to have ANY hope of catching up in a free market, most factories will need complete modernization efforts combined with a change in priorities. I'm not hopeful.

These aren't kids. They are adults. Old enough to go to war. Old enough to vote. Old enough to drive. Old enough to buy and carry firearms. Old enough to get married. Old enough to sign contracts. Old enough to take out debt. They are old enough to fail a class if they can't get their stuff together.

...but China is? LOL. Just say it. They are giving you a ton of money and letting you do morally ambiguous work that wouldn't be been allowed in the US. China is not a free and open society and they do not welcome outsiders (unless they have very specific skills). Best of luck to you.

Actually, any old parking lot will do. I could take my 10 year old to a shopping center and put them behind the wheel of a car and set them loose and he would not be breaking any traffic laws. Now, I'm sure I could get in trouble for some reckless endangerment of a minor, but I would counter if he completed his driving wreckless, it wouldn't be endangerment :)

Comment Passing a stopped school bus (Score 1) 95

If this were being used to catch those that pass a stopped school bus and only a stopped school bus, I would support. Here is how it ought to work. Camera records when the stop sign comes out. If no cars pass, video gets deleted immediately, otherwise it gets sent to the local PD.

No issue with this use case.

Mass surveillance, this is an issue.

In its fiscal second quarter ended January, Intuit reported revenue of $4.65 billion, a 17% increase, and net profit of $693 million, a 48% improvement compared to a year earlier.

Ya...that's some recession. A really deep recession. None of this is about AI, it's about profits. Companies have a "free" pass to cut their workforce and blame it on AI and they are doing just that.
