Hertz had a bunch of bad shit in the news but this one… wow. and the impacts downline on people’s lives, all upended for the simple act of renting a car, yikes.

Why would anyone rent from a company that was convicted of persecuting their own customers because of the incompetence of the company?

Hertz fucked up repeatedly and people lost their jobs, were imprisoned and had their credit scores wrecked because Hertz couldn’t find it’s own cars on it’s own lots.

Why anyone would give them a fucking nickel is beyond me

christ wept…

The “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation” is a fucking disgrace and only baits innocent people into free fire zones. I despise Hamas, but this shit is beyond any decency, it’s absolutely gut wrenching day after day after day. And that’s when Israel isn’t bombing hospitals and schools.

But thank goodness they started a war with Iran to distract everyone.

a human can literally not program a computer to be smarter than a human

I’d add that a computer vision system can’t integrate new information as quickly as a human, especially when limited to vision-only sensing - which Tesla is strangely obsessed with when the cost of these sensors is dropping and their utility has been proven by waymo’s excellent record.

All in all, I see no reason to attempt to replace humans when we have billions. This is doubly so for ‘artistic’ ai purposes - we have billions of people, let artists create the art.

show me an AI driven system that can clean my kitchen, or do my laundry. that’d be WORTH it.

they got theirs, fuck everyone who comes after. literally pulling the ladder up behind themselves

the things they can justify with religion should give anyone pause.
