I tried once. I’m hardwired with compassion and a strong moral and ethical framework.

Last time I tried so hard at employee wage theft and I ended up giving my guys a bonus and the afternoon off. I’m just not cut-out for fascist oligarchy.

Bold of you to assume I’m not a fascist oligarch. Mebbe I am?

Just tell your campus book store that you self-identify as AI. FREE BOOKS!

Despite the offputting headline, it was a cool vid.

Tl/dw: Milimeter wave generators used to heat plasma for fusion research are being adapted as drill heads for geothermal bore holes.

We’re not just doing this for money. We’re doing it for a SHITLOAD of money!

Elon Musk masquerades a political project as Social Media.

"Both lead to immediate adjustments in driving, more quickly than any human can react. "

Again, sort of. ABS isn’t quicker than humans react, it’s a stopgap measure for divers without sufficient skill. It only turns on after you have fucked up and locked your breaks.

“I don’t know what it is, but they generally execute smooth comfortable turns.”

Likely a combination of software that defines comfortable zones, including adhering to speed limits and paired with an accelerometer.

I think we are still a very long way off from autodrive. Being able to handle changing conditions like freezing rain and black ice or a flooded road will take time.

“humans drive based on vision alone”

Not quite. We use our sense of touch and direction to feel our momentum, like how hard a turn or acceleration is. We can feel steering traction changes like when tires begin to slip under acceleration/deceleration. We feel when we’re starting to hydroplane. Cars are a cornucipia of touch feedback that drivers respond to.

Elon : some of you will die, but that is a sacrifice I’m willing to make.

Quarrantine, a cordon sanitaire.

Dems pretend to matter.

You guys got Prime?

Ah. My Kessler syndrome is acting up again.

And by US, the author means the world.
