You are my people! Would be a wicked track rig for a weekend racer, especially if what you raced was motorbikes.

Now they need to redesign their boxes to look like various scales of the truck. Then I will order die-cast models of this truck so I can receive a box, packaged inside an identical box, delivered by an identical box.

Jaywalking across five lanes of traffic on streets with little to no illumination is something of a pastime here.

Isn’t it an issue of scale? Humans scamming other humans happens 1:1. An AI could do it 1:bajillion.
