I can’t imagine why you would want any of that. There’s nothing in my life or nearby imagined lives that’s so arduous I need an AI “agent” to take care of it.
This supports the hypothesis that it’s driven by out of touch rich people who are used to having an executive assistant. They can’t imagine doing daily tasks because they don’t. “Making a dinner reservation? Myself?? How gauche. Get Amanda to do it.”
They then think everyone is like them.
as should anyone living in the area while demanding lower taxes.
If conservatives had shame about reasonable things, a lot of problems would go away.
Great.
I was just in another city last week that had pedestrianized some streets. It was like night and day comparing the streets for people and the next block that was cars. One was full of music, laughter, people going in and out of shops and restaurants. The other was empty save for cars whizzing by, with almost all empty shops. I should’ve taken a picture from the corner where you could see both, and use it as a poster for “where would you rather be?”
I believe it. But adding that barrier would mean some bad drivers wouldn’t bother, and they’d get a smaller, safer, car instead.
I’m just waiting for some RTO’d workers to be told they’re being mass laid off, and instead they just beat the manager to death. The irony of it only being possible because they were forced back into the office will be delicious.
That’s an interesting idea. I know they do some events. “Go to the movies” has fallen under my radar for stuff to do, so I haven’t actively checked in a while.
I’d defer to someone with more expertise, but I’d guess a lot of SUVs and trucks are going to be disqualified.
While I’m waving this low grade magic wand, maybe require a special license for SUVs or something.
I’d go to the local indie theater but capitalism is determined to pay me as little as possible, it’s hard to justify the expense.
Just make it illegal to have unsafe vehicles. Do a buyback for the existing ones.
Billions for war but anything actually useful is too expensive. This is the bad place.
Good. Fuck cars.
I would have loved riding a bike yesterday to where I had to go, but it’s just not safe. The train + bus wasn’t that bad, at least.
Really depends on the details. If I can be an Awakened Mage then definitely that. With just the starting stats of mind/space or fate/time I would fix the world.
Cars and car-first infrastructure have been massively bad ecologically, socially, and environmentally.
The people at work who use AI the most know the least. They add very little value. AI is rather anti-labor in that way.
I’d also rather have some people who are slow and competent than fast and hallucinating
I would not be surprised if ICE was currently using gas chambers. I would be less surprised if they were doing some other method of mass murder.
Have some dark fantasies, but probably not do anything about it. If I did see someone damaging the car or the owner, I don’t know what you’re talking about.
I feel like if someone did a killing with their car and was let off, and someone enacted vigilante justice of their own, I wouldn’t vote to convict.
Then he should be removed from power.
People that park in bike lanes should lose their license and car. Selfish and hazardous behavior.
I’m sure they want the data for money and other nefarious purposes. But as the other person said, I think the way they try to sell people on it reveals they’re out of touch. And maybe a little that AI’s offerings aren’t actually that good.
But a commercial that’s like “it can write a birthday note for your daughter!” is a bleak reflection of someone’s world. That’s not going to resonate with most people. That’s the kind of thing a soulless husk with no real bond with their child would think is good.
