I’m holding out for Kotaku or io9 girls. The nerdier the better lol.

Yeah pretty much. Except you have better odds in person because you can show your personality and supersede your looks.

so . . . just like real life

The Time Feriss Experiment had an episode on this. If you show a picture of yourself with a puppy you’ll get a lot more messages. People are suckers for that stuff.

You forgot chapters 5-16: Keeping Them So-Called “Women” Out of the Correct Restroom

It baffles me when people use the word “constitutional” in this context.

It’s unbelievable how protected these murderers are.

The governor is concerned with civil rights? I didn’t know he knew what they were what with him and his party blatantly violating them every chance they get.

So my employer can monitor my key strokes and have a camera in my office and countless other monitoring set ups and that is okay but a body cam on a cop would violate his/her constitutional rights. Come on now.

Put more accurately, the Knicks head surgeon will perform his next knee surgery.

that cant be, the car cant know if the hit is gonna break or kill you, it has to be simple, either kill one people or two, go for one never for two, if that person dies or not thats not the issue, the issue is the risk, not the result

you are wrong, the car doesnt have to know if its a child or a grandma or someone with terminal cancer or jesus, it kills the least amount of people possible, if faced with killing the single rider, or 30 pedestrians it has to choose to kill you.

“Having said all of that, I suspect that eventually people who grew up with them will just treat HAV-controlled accidents the same way we treat plane crashes. It’s something that happens that could hurt/kill us, but it’s beyond our control, and so infrequent that anyone who spends all their time worrying about it is…

Ideally, the car shouldn’t have to choose to kill anyone. The vast majority of accidents on the road right now are due to human error. Once that component is eliminated, there should be very few accidents on the road. There will be mechanical failures and things that happen due to weather and whatnot, but those…

yeah but the car doesn’t know who is at fault, the car has to have in it the programing that harms the least amount of people no matter whose fault it is

It will be a long time (so...ten years in tech terms) before cars will be calculating probabilities of deaths/damage.

you dont choose, its simple, all cars have the same programing, save the most amount of people, if you dont want to get into a car that would chose to kill you then you wont be able to get into any car

The Zeroth law says “protect humanity”. Guess what happens if the robot deems the passengers a threat to humanity.

Autonomous cars, even uberised, will be direct point to point travel. Unless you are very lucky, public transport will almost always involve having to change at at least one hub. It is even less the answer than autonomous cars. However the thing to bear in mind is that they are both part of the answer, and there will…

The more that I think about it, the more I can’t help feel that autonomous cars aren’t the solution: I think mass-transit of a higher scale/quality/consistency is the real solution. Plus, pushing more and more ‘rural’ routes, so that less urban areas are less dependent on driving everywhere. Humans, or even robots,…
