    I can see why it’s a spicy headline but we should appreciate a human override capability.

    Hopefully waymo is forced into transparency about this. Transparency 100% fully clear on when the tech runs into a variety of situations including humans intervening.

    That should be a mandatory for them to have the licensing necessary to operate autonomous vehicles anywhere in public spaces.

    After all, they are learning on the public’s dime and at the public’s risk. We have to know if it’s truly better and what kind of new risks are created that weren’t otherwise anticipated.

    Hard to tell if you’re trolling or trying to add value to the conversation and just missing it.

    A hammer doesn’t know what it is building but it is still useful.

    This is the nature of tools: for some they improve output, for some they don’t.

    People around me use AI all the time to get answers to generalized topics. More and more they use it like a search engine / information augmentation system.

    They are not technical people. They mostly know that the information needs to be double checked and might be wrong. But usually take it at face value if the importance is low.

    Honestly this is about what they did before. They would search Google, click on the first blog, skim it, and repeat until getting some answer they believe.

    I too use AI regularly for brainstorming, quickly summarizing massive text messages, and reformatting text from a jumbled mess into something more cohesive, etc.

    I don’t love it or hate it. In some cases it saves a lot of time and is useful tool. In other cases it outputs trash that we cannot use for any serious case.

    Just like a hammer or a shovel, it’s a tool. Can be used the right way and it can be used the wrong way.
