Yeah, judging by the article, Tesla should take some responsibility here. Not that the driver should get off, if your car is blowing a red light at 120km/h you're just not paying proper attention.

Yeah, instead of playing along with this McDonald's scam, franchisees should just have a seperate ice cream truck out back and direct people there. Leave the machine out of order, no need to call anyone in, and customers can just get ice cream regardless if they wish.

Yep, that's going to be a small taste of what could happen.

A lot of oauth2 implementations don't really seem to have a mechanism to change providers or switch to email alone. It's going to be fun when one of the big providers like Facebook or Google decide they don't want to do oauth2 any more and a bunch of their users are suddenly locked out of millions of third party websites.

Eh, starlink at least works by all accounts. I guess the jury is still out if it's sustainable as a business because the satellites are deorbiting like crazy.

While true in general, I can't think of any unjust laws that bind the President. In fact, Trump has shown that there's not enough laws that rein in the President. Stuff like the Presidential Records Act not actually having any penalties or enforcement mechanisms (besides impeachment) are really giant oversights.

This meme is explicitly about the President committing crimes and getting away with it. I don't think this is something you want, whether the President's a Democrat or a Republican.

Yes, one person we can pin all of humanity's sins on, and then we just kill them. It's almost like a religious ritual.

Both this use and corporate use of AI isn't really about making things better, it's to avoid anyone having responsibility for anything. A human might have issues with picking out a target that kills 20 innocent people on the off chance a Hamas fighter might be there, and might hold back a little bit if they might be worried the ICC could come knocking, or a critical newspaper article could come out that calls you a merchant of death. AI will pop out coordinates all day and night based on the thinnest evidence, or even no evidence at all. Same with health insurers using AI to deny coverage, AI finding suspects based on grainy CCTV footage, etc, etc.

Nobody's responsible, because 'the machine did it', and we were just following its lead. In the same way that corporations really aren't being held responsible for crimes a private person couldn't get away with, AI is another layer of insulation between 'externalities' and anyone facing consequences for them.

And I don't have any issue with people taking advantage of dumb money like that. These aren't concert tickets (with a hard limit on supply) or GPUs (relatively cheap item where scalpers can screw up the whole market).

I mean, the actual car is illegal to begin with because it's basically a guillotine on wheels.

I don't think scalpers are anything to worry about when it comes to cars. Anyone who pays over the list price for a whole ass car has too much money.
