Looking forward to the same amount of scrutiny happening to AI, and quite rightly, also happening to autonomous vehicles. The grift and playbooks are the same. Wake up.

Discworld QOTD, from The Wee Free Men

The stories never said why she was wicked. It was enough to be an old woman, enough to be all alone, enough to look strange because you have no teeth. It was enough to be called a witch. If it came to that, the book never gave you the evidence of anything. It talked about "a handsome prince"... was he really, or was it just because he was a prince that people called handsome? As for "a girl who was as beautiful as the day was long"... well, which day? In midwinter it hardly ever got light! The stories don't want you to think, they just wanted you to believe what you were told...

There are way too many & daily complaints of Waymo robots illegally blocking egress from ~every possible venue (eg garages, parking spaces, and fire stations) to post them anymore, but this and its comments are good examples. Waymo robots don't know/obey what Paul Baran called "kindergarten rules."

r/phoenix - Today I was temporary detained by a Waymo

I pulled into Nobel Eatery (amazing sourdough bread) As I was pulling out to leave a waymo pulled up behind me a man got out. The. The car just sat there. I slowly backed up and it just honked at me. 5 minutes later the man came out and said it was his Waymo and he thought it would park and wait for him to return. He then went back into the store. I attempted to back up slowly again and it honked again but didn't move. There were at least 7 open parking spots around me. This damn thing didn't move until the guy got back in.

Turns out you can still have a crappy mic sound, even after all these years. You and your co-host can go for a record to see how many times "uumm" is said in an episode. You, yourself, can talk an awful lot of drivel that needs removing. Having a cold is crap. In such a bad mood now.

I find it odd how schools spend YEARS sending students links on “online safety” And then on results day they post social media pics with the name of the child, and their destination. Such as college, workplace or uni. Absolute stalker dream. But I guess “online safety” comes after “get ten likes”
