@v4lgrind The PR doesn't work that way. A few thousand deaths per year from AI vehicles will kill the industry altogether, regardless of how good the relative performance is. And they know this - that's why their trying to make it perfect before launching. They know even one death can end a company. Also, an AI with flaws can potentially be FAR more dangerous than humans - because AI's are standardized. So you'll have millions of AI's all making the same mistakes, leading to catastrophe.

@MrGamelover23 "the idea is that all these cars will be talking to each other" - no it isn't, cos this leads to a classic chicken and egg problem, similar to what's holding back electric cars today due to the paucity of charging stations. If you need all or most of the cars in the city to already be like your AI-driven 'solution', then your solution is only meant for pie-in-the-sky new cities like Saudi Arabia's NEOM project. They need to be able to work in existing environments to have any meaningful impact.

@Freshbott2 Sensible developers still have to work under budgets they don't control. And synthetic data is FAR cheaper than real world data to acquire so...

@robertoformi545 Also less jobs for humans. Yay?!...

@nescius2 I have literally zero idea what you're getting at wrt equality, since I said nothing on that. But if you're gonna give me that nice sweet universal basic income from taxing all the AIs, I'm all for it. But I'm not seeing it atm, just companies automating all they can to boost profits. What initiatives there are are hardly transformative. And don't bother with the Luddite tale, it's overdone. The economists who keep bringing up that story also can't come up with where the new jobs are supposed to be from beyond some huge expansion in healthcare. The primary sector IS depopulated, so is the secondary sector and now it looks like the tertiary sector is gonna be next. Last I checked that's all three sectors that they divide the economy into, so where're we to go next?
