This AI BS is wealth concentrating and selling us back our own content and culture. It creates something that is vaguely like the real thing and not entirely awful, but cheaper, because no human had to be paid.

We should just refuse this garbage. And AI in driving has not been great so far. The technology has 'just been around the corner' since decades. What we really need is more good public transport, cycleable and walkable cities, and less individual robotic clown cars on the road, no matter if they are slightly less foolish than the human ~~ clowns~~ drivers.

Fuck robot trucks, bring back equines and bovines, there's some real intelligence for you, plus they turn their fuel waste into fertilizer.

The future is simpler, I hope. But I guess most people are in this community for the spaceships ...
