You mean to tell me my cheap crayon candy is forbidden??? ๐
So... does bot_7ix9 not know the hexbears formed their site after being silenced on Reddit? They're former /r/chapotraphouse folks.
I'll only feel better if we build rail. This stupid car shit is killing us.
It's not, because data is collected forever. By that definition testing never ends and we talk past each other about the meaning of words.
There's a review process. Drugs go through stages of steadily growing numbers of volunteers, but after that the test is over.
That's what I'd want. Phase 1, these vehicles are tested on private land by highly skilled voluneers. Stage 2, they're tested on private land by laypersons. Phase 3, they're tested on a wide (but limited!) scale across selected public roads and highways.
And then testing is done. At no point is someone subjected to being tested against their will, they always have the ability to opt out. After that they'll still collect data, but it's not an experiment anymore because they're already generally recognized as safe by regulators.
Okay, think about medication.
They test it before it gets regulatory approval. Once the testing is done it goes to the broad public because they're found to be safe when used as directed. At no point do they experiment on people without their consent.
Obviously data is still collected after that, but that's not the same as testing - are you conflating those two things? Because by your definition, testing never ends.
We have ways to test new technologies before unleashing them onto the public, what are you talking about? Even if it's necessary to test them on public roads, they could be limited to only certain roads so people who don't want to be part of he experiment don't have to risk their lives.
I don't want companies to test drive on public roads, I did not sign up to be one of their test subjects.
And zoning out would be much worse with computer assistance!
Actually cars should be abolished for this very reason - humans can never be truly safe drivers, they always get bored and zone out.
Hell if anything Iโm MORE attentive when using the autopilot because it can be so sketch sometimes.
I doubt you're more attentive than someone who is literally driving lol
My point is that autonomous trucks shouldn't be on the road, with or without drivers.
It happened to me and it could happen to youuuuuu! ๐ฑ
