I have zero sympathy for any Tesla owner that believed anything from Elon's mouth. That's your own fault. Tesla has shown time and time again to be hostile to its own customers in a variety of ways.

And plenty have failed. Perhaps a smaller problem space but still really, really hard. Some self driving freight company failures: Starsky, TuSimple, Embark, Ghost, among others. One promising self driving truck startup, Aurora, was forced

I know this is somewhat besides the point of the discussion, but.. many Ubers have recording devices inside the car too. The drivers have gotten savvy and protect themselves from false claims or even harassment.

I very much enjoy this feature. My next door neighbor is on vacation, and I'm feeding his fish for him. I took a picture of the fish tank and asked Gemini to put the fish tank at various local tourist attractions in my city, as if we&#

When you upload a video to YT, it's heavily compressed. Your pristine creation is converted 10 ways to Sunday, which then can be played back in a variety of formats, speeds, and platforms. Long before you even uploaded that video, for

How does property/real estate ownership work in this case? Seeing the land shift so clearly by several feet makes me wonder. What was on your property is now on my property!
