You're right. The McMurty is an actual car with a driver in it.

They'll make a handful that a select few billionaires will get to keep in a hanger somewhere for bragging rights.
There's a reason we don't see a driver in these demos and they don't do anything beyond very choreographed stunts. There's no way a human can actually control those thrusters in a way that doesn't kill you. Unless you're a fighter pilot.
The strictness index (which is what I'm assuming you're referring to) varied over time as the response changed.
The international border quarantine was quite extreme, but the rest of the country was (mostly) business as normal.
The only reason sprawling suburbs can exist is because they are subsidized by inner cities.
Building and maintaining miles of roads and utilities is not cheap and the number of people in these areas makes it impossible for them to cover these costs unless they're astronomically wealthy.
Because there's no value in something that you offload to AI without effort.
If it's something that anyone could do, without skill, why would anyone be impressed by that?
The infinitely scrolling marquee makes me feel like it is.
Yeah I can see why LLMs don't reflect your world view (it's fucking stupid)
Conservatives spread propaganda about woke universities -> conservative kids are less likely to go. Do this for decades and you end up in the situation we're in.
Either that or conservatives are just stupider and less likely to be academics; which is, in my opinion, more likely than your hypothesis about grand conspiracy.
doesn't really sound the same to me but I guess we can just agree to disagree
Incredible argument
It is considerably easier to manipulate someone if you have a lot of data about them, yes.
Besides, even if it was just about twitter, it can only take a small portion of the population to swing an election. Word of mouth is also downstream from twitter. People might not see something on twitter, but they might hear it from someone who saw it there.
You seem weirdly invested in defending bad decisions.
Even if you're and AI booster, shouldn't you want a better UI?
They're a multi billion dollar company. Surely they can dedicate a small amount of their resources to improving UX?
I've been to the ER in my country because of abnormal stomach pain. Obviously I was triaged and had to wait hours because it was not considered life threatening. But in the end a doctor saw me for free. I think if I were in the USA and didn't have health insurance I would have just stayed home and avoided the risk of an expensive bill.
All I'm saying is that if you were shown undeniable proof that you were in a simulation I think it would change how you felt about "reality".
I don't think this is true. I think that if you found out you were in a simulation and that all these things were just electrical pulses being sent to your brain in a jar it would vastly change your perception of the world. And I think that's a good analogy for AI
Respectfully, they are.
My point is that I just don't think the value-add for any of these are worth the existential dread most people have about losing their career. Then there's the scams, misinformation, trying to find a job when every recruiter is using AI to filter job listings, etc.
