Comment Re:What about top speed? (Score 1) 92

Creep means you can park your car with only one pedal, if you have to actually push the accelerator to move and then the brake pedal to stop, parking becomes a hassle. If you stopped short, now you have to push two pedals to move up less than a foot - just that series of events is highly prone to error in timing.

But I guess one pedal drive fixes that to an extent.

ICE creep was the original one pedal drive, just the other way around. And much much more controllable for slow speed parking maneuvers.

Comment Supercomputer vs PC. (Score 2) 59

This is the supercomputer phase of AI; it needs huge amounts of space, resources, and expensive equipment. When an eventual successor is developed that reduces all those resources down to a small box that sits in someone's home or pocket and does the same thing faster and almost infinitely cheaper - all this debt will be worse than just throwing money in the fireplace.

Until then this idea of just making an AI database bigger will never be profitable. The only hope is that new developments quickly render this waste of resources obsolete before our world collapses under the weight of data center and infrastructure debt.
