I’d like to volunteer, just add a strong wheel
The self-driving taxis and humanoid robots companies like Tesla are developing are just a thinly disguised way of getting around immigration law. We’re a very long way away from having autonomous humanoid robots that can clean your house for you. But one remotely piloted by someone in Bangladesh wearing a haptic suit? If the tech was cheap enough, that sort of thing would be profitable.
It’s effectively an extremely perverse and exploitive form of immigration. When we bring immigrants in, they typically take low-level jobs. But they also get opportunities to advance themselves further. Moreover, in the US at least, any children immigrants have on US soil automatically become US citizens. So yes, immigrants come in on the bottom of the social ladder, but they have an opportunity to climb.
Here though? This is a way of getting all the labor we want from immigrants but without offering them the usual deal in return. And even worse, they won’t even be owed minimum wage.
So does he now want people working from home or not?
He’s very inconsistent.
Oh, don’t mistake. They’ll still have to go into an office, they’ll just be driving the cars remotely, most likely.
“How was your day, honey ?”
“I killed thirty people in a pile-up on Hwy74 remotely. I’ll be a little late.”
Should be totally shut down until self diving is perfected. Shouldn’t even be allowed the chance to lie about it.
Also they should get taxed into the ground. Like $5,000 Bill for signing a new customer up, and $60k every time the service is used. Daddy Warbucks can afford it and he be fixing the economy.
Ah yes, you know what’s better than a taxi driver? A taxi driver who relies on a camera with a limited field of vision, experiences input and video lag, and receives none of the tactile sensations that allow drivers to gauge road conditions.
also one that has no personal stake in the safety of their driving
Yeah, but you’re ignoring one thing. I don’t have to sit awkwardly hoping the driver doesn’t talk to me. The risk/reward here might be screwed but I live dangerously.
Plus I welcome the opportunity to sue/fuck-over elon.
It’s a good thing that’s not what’s happening, but I guess that doesn’t help the “Musk Bad” agenda
is planning to hire a human team to remotely troubleshoot its robotaxi operations.
People who don’t drive themselves will be responsible for the UI of all this.
This really just comes down to people in a certain income brackets are uncomfortable being in close contact with a working class person.
That’s why they don’t like trains, that’s why they don’t like taxis.
I just love we have this nice simple solution to fix traffic congestion and its been around for so long. It even hurts when people say “im forced to take public transit” like really? Owning a car is not a right. I personally do not get the hate for public transportation.
My father when he visits the city to see me refuses to use the subway, even though it’s a five minute ride from where he parks his car - he ubers instead. It’s because he is frightened being trapped in a box with the poors.
When i got into work, coworkers asked me how i got in and i said Subway, they joked about having to avoid getting stabbed.
My friends are voting conservative in the upcoming election because they’ve seen too many poor people on the street engaging in anti-social behaviour (being drunk, and talking loud)
It’s fucking insanity to me.
mindblowing that people think you just get stabbed all the time on the subway. I live in Toronto and have taken buses, trains, streetcars, the SRT and the subway. The only complaint i have had is that I wish there was more funding for public transit to improve service. I have seen drunks and homeless people on the subway/bus/streetcar before, but never have had a problem. What people SHOULD be making an issue about is how these people end up in this situations, and how we can help them, and also be proactive and avoid it from happening in the future to more people.
I’m in, with generations of GTA experience
Basically what the self driving food delivery robots do in Berkeley, then
They are pretty autonomous, but if they get stuck then someone in Colombia takes control
Just subreptitiously sell it as a video game, you won’t even have to pay the drivers. I don’t see what could go wrong with this plan.
So Crazy Taxi, right?
Leon just announced he’s starting an AI based gaming studio.
With how popular trucking sims are… I don’t think you’re entirely off the mark
We already knew this was coming.
And to quote the comic:
“Crowdsourced steering” doesn’t sound quite as appealing as “self driving.”
This, but it’s identifying the Muslim to send to the camps. And if you fail, they force you to take a selfie to appear in the captcha yourself
3 weeks later:
“Your honour, it was the ping!”
Prosecution calls first witness; my teenage neighbor nemesis, his 28.8k baud modem, and Warcraft2
Waymo is doing the same. Mostly self-driving but when they get stuck a human at a help center takes the sticks. There are a lot of edge cases in the real world so it makes sense to just have the car programmed to be very conservative and let a human deal with it.
My concern is that some driving situations need to be resolved immediately. That handover could be an issue.

How can I apply?
“CLASS D LICENSE!”
So can I also start remote driving my car?

Ok so they’re not remotely driving, as the title would have you believe.
