Aren't these tech companies telling on themselves a bit too much? I thought the entire idea of online shopping was that it was supposed to be easy and save you time? They're admitting that their platforms are unusable hellscapes?

I imagine downtowns clogged with thousands of teslas or whatever waiting for their owners to finish work.

I'm thinking in combination with privately-owned vehicles. It would essentially carpooling and dropping off family members for many. Also it would upend how parking works. People wouldn't pay $30 a day to park their AV downtown, they'll just send it home and have it wait outside their office at 4.

What about threat of competition? Clog the streets with your robotaxis to make it harder for others to enter a market. Big tech doesn't seem to care about things like efficiency these days, only market dominance.

I guess it all boils down to this. A robot that can sort of navigate around a house and might be able to take an object into a different room if you're lucky. They really have nothing here.

Doesn’t “Part-time“ imply he’s at least working about 20 hours a week? No way it’s anything more than a tenth of that. Casual Part time would be too generous.

I can't believe my parent's pension funds are invested in this openly fraudulent company. When does the church of scientology get added to the S&P 500?

If this AI shit is so hot and your product is going to die if it doesn't have an AI chatbot, then why is the money going in the opposite direction of what I would expect?

If you must use ChatGPT, goto settings -> personalization and write custom instructions. Something like: Do not anthropomorphize yourself. When providing information always include sources. Do not use pronouns to refer to yourself. Do not flatter the user. Minimize pointless chatter.

Really, it's fun when the ethical move is also the profitable move yet being ethical is so unacceptable that profits must be sacrificed.
