Is the future just having a human slave in a third world country strap into VR and carry your groceries for you?

That's basically what happens right now. Remember Amazon's smart grocery store? It was just people in India watching cameras. Computer vision wasn't capable of it.

Makes me wonder how much of Tesla’s “Full Self Driving” is just some dude playing GTA VR with you in the passenger seat.

Well, I think the self driving taxis across the us apparently need human interaction every 6 minutes on average... So are they self driving? I don't know.

We can't use our phones and drive, but someone can have a screen and drive 6 cars at the same time...

And I only need human interaction every few days. Take that AI... :)
