It isn’t a matter of which is better - you use both, and more.

To be fair, the LiDAR was primarily used for parking. Still a stupid decision to remove it. There were plenty of values it provides…but those cars were never going to drive themselves even if they did have LiDAR.

Might I suggest you use the time machine you created to go back and talk yourself out of making the climate change reversal machine. I can think of nothing worse than for you to feel like you are stupid.

The problem with this way of thinking is that there are solutions to eliminate accidents even without eliminating self-driving cars. By dismissing the concern you are saying nothing more than it isn’t worth exploring the kinds of improvements that will save lives.

Correction - Older Teslas had lidar, Musk demanded they be removed because they cut into his profits. Not a huge difference but it does show how much of a shitbag he is.

low visibility, including sun glare, fog and airborne dust

I also see a ton of accidents when the sun is in the sky or if it is dusty out. \s

Overlooking the concept of a failsafe? How did they get past the concept of the subscription model?

so they fired them all

Even fictional evil companies need to meet goals set by the board.

Did the lady have 5 kids to feed?

Could probably pull that off with meta information to determine the age of the photo.

Eliminating QA is a huge value. We all know it reduces costs relating to employing people, but that’s just the start. It eliminates the number of bugs found and reduces the amount of work that comes with it. All in all it helps projects to release on time. There could be no problem with this, clearly.

Great, neither Google search or reddit work anymore. They deserve each other.

Maybe instead of “Alive” you should go with “Currently able to form full sentences”. Because Biden is just as “alive” as Trump in regards to how you are trying to frame him. The same issues Biden has, Trump has - just Trump’s cult doesn’t care.

“AI pictures” are AI in name only. There is no actual artificial intelligence involved in any of this bullshit.

I would take 7 people to McDonalds.

Remove the unnecessary outwardly facing “eyeball screens”. There, cheaper.

There are dozens of us.

Upgrade infrastructure?! No, no. That money needs to go to shareholders. There’s no way millions of people need decent internet speeds more than shareholders need their 12th yacht.

Old people living longer.

Sadly, while we would value your support for stopping multiple genocides by voting against Trump, your numbers are far outweighed by that of moderates. I am sorry you can’t comprehend very basic cause and effect and if that costs us our country, I guess you can rest well being so stupid you won’t think you were part of the problem.
