Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

The police reported that the Model 3 "failed to drive in a single lane, left the roadway and struck the residence" at a "high rate of speed." The crash involved a woman, Martha Avila, who was inside the house. She was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead "due to injuries she sustained from the crash," police said. The police release said there were "no signs of intoxication" from the driver, who was also cooperative during the investigation.

Okay let's be clear that I fuckin hate AI but this still seems like user error rather than the car's autopilot killing someone? Like... you can still slam the brakes even if you're in autopilot mode. It's basically souped up cruise control.

Again, I hate AI passionately, but let's try to use our higher reasoning too, or else we're no better than the assholes who ask ChatGPT for relationship advice and basic math

I agree with you, but I think both Tesla and the "driver" should be liable. Tesla should be liable for how they market their vehicles "self driving" features. The driver for not making a reasonable attempt to prevent an accident.

Tesla has turned off their self driving right before crashes to avoid liability.

Im not saying that's what happened here but they have done this before.
