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?

Do we know this? I don’t follow the comics at all but do they ever go into the things Bruce Wayne does as CEO of Wayne Enterprises? I can’t fathom we have gone decades without someone touching on this.

Trump is probably so jealous. The two kids he wants to be best friends with are hanging out together without him. They are going to become best friends and won’t want to hang out with him anymore. So sad.

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.

Sounds like your growth is your realization that people aren’t intending to harm you. That, yes, they are just people bopping along trying to survive. That their indifference to you isn’t malice. A great life lesson.

However, that doesn’t mean they aren’t also idiots.

You should have added “but will anyone think of the shareholders?” in there.

It’s not even AR… Didn’t they back down from that? Isn’t it mixed reality or something?
