Comment Ask the passenger (Score 2) 51

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."

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.)

"Citizens of those countries willingly staffed teh camps, and many fought on Germany's side" Many Americans would have done the same.

Well look here, "Many Americans would have done the same.

A little history for ya, superior being.

Did you know that at the start of the war, many Japanese Citizens were interred in Camps? Yes.

But there is a difference in the camps. the Japanese were not starved, they were well fed. They were not forced into Slave labor, and make no mistake, they were not gassed with the European's favorite gift gas, using Zyklon B. And they were let go eventually .

And here's the difference. We Americans are ashamed of that action. It was wartime, and well, many of us understand that while deplorable, it was a different time. There was a worldwide war happening, one in which the axis powers were killing "undesirables" en masse, and it was not a good thing to be in say Nanking or South Korea, during the Axis actions if you were female.

Meanwhile, your whataboutism is not true nor accurate, but you stood up for the holocaust by saying Americans would have done the same.

We did not, Europeans definitely did, and that is why you act all high and might5y, your deepest impulse didn't go anymore, just submerged a bit below the surface, ready to be enacted again when you get the chance.

100,000,00 Guinea Pigs thus has its 1933 direction of muckraking reversed. This book was on my RN grandma's bookshelf, and I devoured it when I was young.

Yup, and they still do that crap. While food is fairly well controlled, medicine is a disaster. As people become more and more expecting miracles in a pill, we're getting some freaky side effects.

Men are regularly put on meds that kill their ability to get an erection. A friend in his mid 30's was suggested to go on Cholesterol meds. I pulled him aside.. "You just got married last year, do you and your wife enjoy intimacy?" Oh hell yeah!" The you really need to check out the side effects of what statins do ."

Or constant fatigue, or permanent coughing.

And women have become victims of a constant and increasing antidepressant use, which has not branched out to prescribing antipsychotics. I suppose after they experience the chemical straitjacket and mental numbness, they might be about as "happy" as they can get - AKA numb - but yes, the sexual dysfunction, weight gain, and the special gift of Tardive Dyskenisia, those uncontrolled movements often kick in. But fear not, there are meds for TD - although one of the side effects is TD!

And that's the insane thing. We have all of this disinformation about things like vaccines. Yet people gobble down, like candy, meds that will wreck their lives . I've done my best to avoid getting into the system, I only doctor for acute things like injuries. No maintenance meds. They always try to get me into the system, I tell them to slag off.

here was hope that the agency under Robert F Kennedy Jr would take the threat more seriously.

There is only one hope that is ever truly justified in Robert F Kennedy, and that is he will do something unexpected at a cocain/heroin party. With a bit of PCP he's the perfect match for the Trump administration.

Weird that you were modded as troll. What you wrote was not only funny, but likely true. I always thought his presence was to make the rest of this administration look normal.
