If the camera system + software results in being 1% safer than a human, and a given human can't afford the lidar version, society is still better off with the human using the camera-based FSD than driving manually. Elon being a piece of shit doesn't detract from this fact.

But, yes, a lot of "ifs" in there, and obviously he did this to cut costs or supply chain or blahblah

Lidar or other tech will be more relevant once we've raised the floor (everyone getting the additional safety over manual driving) and other FSDs become more mainstream (competition)

Depressing comic week has been around for a while

I prefer to reduce demand, instead. Everyday people who feel happy and safe don't feel the need to be violent.

Authors didn't invent the alphabet. Painters didn't invent colors. It's rearranging pre existing work in a way that makes sense to the rules of a new system. Need a stronger definition to explain the difference.

What if he wrote the technology himself? Would that count?

What about games with "procedural generation" - does that count?

Do you really think the automation governments use don't understand euphemism. Just say piracy.

What are problems that Uber fails to address, that a customer cares about? Twisting words / rules so they can make more money is something public corporations are required to do. They HAVE to maximize shareholder value. Laws set guardrails against that, driven by what society agrees is "right"

Do you... remember taxis?

Yes, public transportation is awesome and I wish it didn't suck where I live. But publicly traded companies are legally obligated to look out for themselves. The problem is government, yo - that's what decides what corpos can't do according to what society feels is "right".

Please share a link to the conversation instead of just the screenshot.

The shitty chat bots do need high quality data. This is much better than scraping off reddit, since a glorified auto-complete cannot know that eating rocks is bad for you. You can't retroactively complain after having signed away your rights to something. But you can change things moving forward. If you are incorruptible and don't care about money, start an organization with those values and convince the researchers to join you. Good luck (seriously, I hope you succeed).
