I don't like it

2018-10-03 18:16:50 UTC  

simply for the fact that again

2018-10-03 18:17:06 UTC  

convenience breeds laziness and laziness breeds negligence

2018-10-03 18:17:20 UTC  

Automated cars don't drink, do drugs, play on cell phones, etc., they only drive , they will be able to communicate with each other as well. I don't know if they can solve most of the problems anytime soon, but I don't think all these huge companies would be pouring so much money into it, if they didn't think they could get to market.

2018-10-03 18:17:21 UTC  

I get the jitters everytime i'm not driving, so does my mom

2018-10-03 18:17:31 UTC  

The system can only improve. I do agree that it will make people more reliant on technology.

2018-10-03 18:17:46 UTC  

where does it stop eh?

2018-10-03 18:17:50 UTC  

wall-E?

2018-10-03 18:17:59 UTC  

i know i'm being a bit of a negative nelly here

2018-10-03 18:18:00 UTC  

Who knows.

2018-10-03 18:18:20 UTC  

but i'm honestly getting a bit tired of people trying to step towards pure automation

2018-10-03 18:18:25 UTC  

automated cars, yay

2018-10-03 18:18:33 UTC  

now buss drivers are out of business

2018-10-03 18:18:36 UTC  

and truck drivers

2018-10-03 18:18:44 UTC  

I think they will be rolling them out for general use in the next few years.

2018-10-03 18:19:02 UTC  

Did anyone just get a presidential alert on their phone?

2018-10-03 18:19:04 UTC  

how long until they automate forklights and otherwarehouse things

2018-10-03 18:19:06 UTC  

yes

2018-10-03 18:19:31 UTC  

What the hell. Why is this a thing?

2018-10-03 18:19:31 UTC  

National Wireless Emergency Alert System

2018-10-03 18:19:33 UTC  

yay

2018-10-03 18:19:46 UTC  

more ways for them to show they are connected to our devices at all times

2018-10-03 18:20:10 UTC  

I have a very good friend who is a truck driver, he's learning to program. He said there will be very few CDL jobs in 10 years. They already are automating forklifts and mining equipment.

2018-10-03 18:20:49 UTC  

Yeah. I’m concerned about the jobs thing. Driving is a major employer.

2018-10-03 18:20:58 UTC  

oh that's just excellent, what are you going to do with all the unskilled employees?

2018-10-03 18:21:09 UTC  

you can't just send them back to college

2018-10-03 18:21:16 UTC  

that's 20k and 4 years of their life gone

2018-10-03 18:21:22 UTC  

20k minimum btw

2018-10-03 18:21:35 UTC  

you can't have a required college education for everyone

2018-10-03 18:21:42 UTC  

and if you make every mundane task done by robots

2018-10-03 18:21:49 UTC  

unemployment is going to shoot through the roof

2018-10-03 18:22:01 UTC  

AI and robots are meant to be used as tools

2018-10-03 18:22:05 UTC  

not do the entire job for you

2018-10-03 18:22:35 UTC  

Didn't Elon say a while back that robot only factories were a mistake and that he needed to hire more humans?

2018-10-03 18:22:37 UTC  

i wouldn't want AI being the only thing standing between a murder and a conviction just as much as i wouldn't want it doing every part of a surgery

2018-10-03 18:22:59 UTC  

Humans are special creatures, sure we make mistakes, but we also have intuition

2018-10-03 18:23:24 UTC  

and if you make an AI that is capable of human level intellect, then you get into the moral argument

2018-10-03 18:23:47 UTC  

Do you enslave them to do your every will and hope to god they don't turn on you with the power they have

2018-10-03 18:23:57 UTC  

or do you acccept that you've officially played god

2018-10-03 18:24:11 UTC  

luckily, strong AI is a long time off, at least
