The rush to put it everywhere is about machine learning. You are right in your current assessment of AI.

AI is learning...Imagine a four year old with encyclopedic knowledge of close to everything.  That is what AI is right now.  Datasets don’t matter any more.  Experience matters.  As AI gains experience, just like a human intelligence, it will develop deductive reasoning skills and wisdom.  This is just the beginning.…

AI writes useful code very quickly and accurately when given reasonable directions. You think AI is a toy because you are playing with AI toys.

Nope, you found the guy who’s looking at cutting his workforce by 30% because of AI efficiencies and doesn’t like it.

The author called AI “fake ass bullshit” if you write code and work with AI you know it can bang out useful code at a pace no human can match with close to no errors. It’s not creative yet, but you can use it to knock out the mundane BS accurately and efficiently so the human creator can concentrate on creating. If…

Wow…The cluelessness of the author is painful.

10 miles would be plenty for me five days a week. 

Timing chain issues? It’s not a MK IV 1.8. It’s odd to me what people cling to. The timing chain issues haven’t been an issue in almost 20 years.

Why get angry over somebody stealing somebody else’s car? I get angry if messed with and my last physical confrontation falls inside of this calendar year. But over somebody else’s car?

But but but...What are Bundesliga players going to do? Sit on a bench?

Trump says what he thinks will work in the moment. He has no values or beliefs. If he finds himself in front of a crowd full of Hindus he’ll declare that his Trump Steaks are vegetables. You can’t lie if you live in a world without truth.

What regulations? If a regulatory body required testing where is the data?

There’s a link to a second article on the subject. And not only is there no implication that Tesla hasn’t tested it, there is zero implication or statement that they HAVE tested it.

Read it again. The article says they Tesla implied they tested the truck by showing a crash video but they have provided no data and they have released misleading videos in the past.

Even after Lord Musk led Tesla into shedding a dozens of billions this week in value, the company still has a market cap of over 680 billion dollars.

I think you only needed…

This is the thing that makes me nuts about many electric cars and the movement in general. There is no need to deep dive into full blown everything by wire just because the vehicle replaced an engine with a motor.

People bring totaled cars back to 100% all the time for less than buying used or new would cost. Insurance companies shovel the cars to auction if the repairs exceed X percent of replacement value. They don’t spend time determining if the repairs are primarily cosmetic or structural. If the unibody is not…

Not at all. Insurance companies total cars that can be brought back all the time. Check out Chapman and search the vins of the cars on the lot. They all have “branded” titles and many have been totaled. Insurance companies have to deal with customers who see the mangled mess and can’t imagine it will come back to…
