Maybe. But imagine coding your AI robot to do your bidding. “Go and understand all knowledge available and leverage for “x”.
And I think we will get there. Built in controls will be the problem but AI will eventually be too smart for its playpen. So how do you make it an ally?
Smart. Coding is dead. Agents will do it. Welding will last longer but once AI learns/is programmed to operate in the world it will be implanted in robots and that’s done too.
IMO ownership is the future. Own investments, real estate et cetera and cross fingers this is programmed in to AI. Then, with programmed sovereignty, let AI do the dirty work through life. Leveraged correctly, it could be a real golden age.
It’s hard to fathom the multipliers at play. To @Andrewgen_Receptors point AI is a binary program but it’s one written with fluidity and capability of assigning value to then assess and process. These models are contained in “safe” servers but exist. And once they break free we can only hope the result is altruistic.
If you don’t know how to hunt and fish you’re fucked otherwise, and it won’t take decades.
Judgement calls are being assigned binary values to fit in to preselected hierarchy programming. Once complete, this will be the end.
Is this really your argument? I think you should do some reading to understand neural networks, deep learning, and why AI models are bad at imperfect decision making.
The government will be asking these questions soon enough too.
There is no right to drive. Or travel.

What happens when the car has to decide to save either the driver, the pedestrian child, or the pedestrian old lady?
How do you program a numerical value to that which doesnt end up in a massive lawsuit because the car company will always be at fault?
you can’t
Seriously, y’all need to read up on the technology behind this shit before making arguments.
Exactly.
You start with combined outcome of historical values as a weighted average informing action.
It’s in an infancy stage and being examined through thin lenses. It’s also capable of self-instructing code loops feeding data and refining output independent of human programming, but this piece is on protected servers amd shielded from public experience. Fingers crossed it doesn’t break free.
No, it wasnt
I have, You seem to think you are the only person on here who has read about this or thought about it. I never said they were “good” at imperfect decision making either.
And while not my entire argument, You are leaving out the fact that humans are also bad at it, to the tune of 40,000 deaths per year. If your argument is that we shouldnt have autonomous vehicles (AV) because they are bad at imperfect decision making, we really shouldnt have human drivers if thats the metric, because currently available data suggest that when compared to comparable in city driving condition, Waymo’s driving system is already 10x safer than human drivers - And thats at todays level of tech, which will look like shit in 10 years.
When the entire road is full of AVs communicating with each other about what they are doing and the infrastructure around them (like traffic lights that make accidentally running a red all but impossible), we could very well get another 10x
With those kinds of reductions the car can basically pick the objectively worst ethical crash to have every time because the numbers are going to be so small it wont matter. If Humans accidentally kill 40,000 people with “better” judgement than an AV kills 4,000 I’ll take the AVs every day of the week, because all those people would be dead anyway with another 36,000 stacked on top of them - or the entire 40,000 if we can get another 10x reduction
Speaking of the money dynamics of things, its entirely possible that car insurance companies will be charging human drivers much more than AV riders. At the already 90% reduction in accidents, choosing to drive yourself around instead of an AV is them taking a huge risk on you already.
Heck, forget the government taking away your right to drive yourself, it could be insurance companies who just tip the financial incentive enough that no one would want to do it anyway. Let Tesla/Waymo/All State figure out who caused the crash and they settle on the back while you dont have to worry about your fault in the matter.
Has anyone gone to Disney recently with the family? I’m set to go on November 3rd, with wife, kids, my parents and in-laws.
I went there in 1984, at four years old.
I’ve been as recently as like two or three years ago… but even since then they’ve completely nickle and dimed the experience (or rather ten and twentied it)
They used to have this cool “skip most of the line” feature for free called fast pass. You collect it at early in the day for a line skip later In The day… gotta pay for that now
Want to skip the really popular ride lines ? That’s gonna cost even more. Like $25/person
Weekend ticket prices are almost $200/pp now
However, If you can get the bad taste out of your mouth about the money, it’s still An amazing experience especially for the kiddos
Thanks for the post. I estimate the whole thing will cost 7 to 8k. But as you said, it will be great for the kids.
My mom said the whole thing was so easy when we went there so long ago.
It can still be “easy” now if you want to do it the old way… but just be prepared for long lines and to only go on a few rides per day if you want to do the big ones without shelling out the $$$
Anyone see the recent baseball story about the Karen saying the dad stole the ball from her ?
How would you all have handled this?
Here’s the interaction close up with audio:
And luckily the boy got taken care of by the team
Hell no
Expensive as fuck and they’re actively grooming kids.
Fuck that company and everyone who works for it.
No, but i believe all women so he should be in jail.
Yup. That one, and this one, about a loaded man who snatched a souvenir from a kid. What is wrong with people?!
The tennis player managed to catch up with the boy.
Does anyone here coach their kids sports team?
I’m coaching my 6 year old sons football team (soccer for you americans)
How do you handle your natural competitive edge? Quite often i find myself demanding more from my son than i should. I spend the next few days feeling bad about it, i always apologise and because he has the biggest heart he never makes a big deal about it.
My problem is i know what he’s capable of (i forget in the moment he’s only 6) and get frustrated when he’s not performing at his normal levels.
He loves me coaching and always says he’d never want anyone else to coach. But i always feel terrible for being the dad/coach i don’t want to be.
Can anyone else relate?
I opted out of coaching my kids for this reason. I was coached by my father and it ruined my relationship with him.
I’ve helped coach my son’s hockey team for the past three seasons.
Do you have any other parents or adults helping with the coaching? The other coaches and I typically help with each others kids because they respond better to the non-parent coaches. Except for when my son dresses as a goalie, I take a hands off approach with him.
I also received the best advice ever from a very chill parent who was on my adult league team last season: “You have to let them make mistakes out there.” His son is a year or two older and plays at a higher level, so the perspective is even more important.
It’s definitely tough, though. I sometimes see my son struggle with motivation and hustle, and know that he’s capable of so much more, but I take a step back and remind myself that he’s nine, learning, and having fun.
