Comment Re:What was the argument against Airbus? (Score 2) 36

As I recall one pilot held their stick back to keep the nose up the whole time, which doomed them. Airbus averages the inputs from the two pilots. Boeing produces a "dual inputs" warning.

Because he held back the whole time, the other pilot's efforts to level the aircraft and gain speed were ineffective. As you say, it was noticed at the last minute, but too late.

That always seemed like a very weird design choice to me. But also, the crew should have noticed sooner, and they should have made it clear who was flying and that the other pilot needed to let go of their controls.

Seems to be more a case of enough AI tokens and the source code, and all bugs become shallow.

Presumably Microsoft has Copilot doing the same for Windows, and Apple has some AI working on MacOS and iOS, and we know Google has been using Gemini AI for Android.

They just quietly fix stuff before it becomes public knowledge, but Linux is open source so can't really do that.

I'd think so given it appears to have a monochrome low resolution LCD screen and controls that while I'm sure are functional, are far from "gaming grade".

The most interesting part will be what radios it has. The CC1101 in the original Flipper Zero is a great chip. I started using it long ago for work and soon realized it is extremely flexible.

Ironically it was exercise that screwed up some of my joints, due to undiagnosed health issues. It's hard to know what is best to do.

Stressing about it is probably worse than the damage a lot of this stuff is doing. Plus I need coffee, life isn't worth living without it. I'm not joking.
