rydevos.bsky.social @rydevos.bsky.social · 16/09/2026This is how I feel right now. Like mist things, especially technology, it’s likely in the middle where we focus our attention and energy when it comes to rules and regulations. This is where democracy, experts, and government all have important roles. Collective decisions require collective response 000

Stea @jonathanstea.bsky.social · 29/08/2026There’s something hilariously absurd about social media that leads some people to deceive themselves into believing that their brains have suddenly downloaded the expertise that is painstakingly acquired over countless years of training/experience in a highly specialized domain. 97817
rydevos.bsky.social @rydevos.bsky.social · 29/08/2026I can see technology like this being useful by taking humans, with our irrational decisions and unconscious biases, that largely results in innocent lives being lost, off of the beat. I’d definitely like a very robust set of regulations in place when programming these robotics. Study it. 000
