  • As a reminder for those unfamiliar with the degree of self-driving afforded by Waymo’s cars, the IIHS points out that they are certified as Level 4, which according to the automation scale created by SAE International, means the computer can do all the driving with no human supervision under certain conditions.

    I’m sure they only compared to human drivers in the same conditions, right?

    68% is not that great of an improvement in this context. They should be multiple times better with all the tech built in and the constant oversight.

    They have Initiative if they are able to act on their own based on their training. As in they don’t require being told to do their job all the time, they just do it.

    If you don’t bother with training then you want self starters and hopefully you are fine with whatever shenanigans they come up with.

    People shopped for hemorrhoid medication and anti-wrinkle cream, among other products.

    Why would this involve a human or a chatbot in the first place? I prefer an interface that involves neither when shopping online.

    This is like saying people prefer being stabbed over being shot.

    That doesn’t make any sense as a statement. It sounds like you can’t force freedom on people, but yeah you can make them free without consent but I don’t get how that makes sense in this context.

    Multiple countries show socialism works perfectly fine for essential and shared services and other things a society needs. It doesn’t work for everything, which is why so many countries are a blend of socialist public stuff like universal healthcare, free education, and those kinds of things whle still having capitalism in the firm of private for profit companies for non-essential stuff like restaurants and clothing stores.

    Note that if the country has socialist in the name it probably isn’t actually socialist in practice.
