Seems like people will keep being needlessly negative and dismissive of AI right up until the singularity. But really, what did AI do to this guy? ML really does have real world applications. Though many self driving start ups are overblown

Wow, there are a lot of people in this thread arguing whether or not John Carmack has the right skills to help AGI, or about the specifics of his knowledge. Do you all realize you're arguing about nothing? Good for him for doing someth

I think I'm missing something here. You'll protest people in Germany getting jobs because the CEO "makes an ass of himself on Twitter"? Like, why do you care?

Yeah so I don't care about the blutooth because my car DRIVES ITSELF a big percent of the time. it's fundamentally changed how I view driving. Stop and Go traffic no longer makes me mad. Road trips no longer exhaust me. There'

Yeah I've seen this, it also looks like a submarine commercial to me. What I'm more interested in is it's specs. Can it really charge as fast as they say? Does it really have that range and acceleration? I've seen the sh

Honestly this is a good move, I just have a quick question: Does anyone anywhere have video footage of a Rivian actually being driven? Like, not in a commercial, someone genuinely driving it. I just want to know if they are anywhere close t

Yeah I would imagine because most trips to the hospital aren't planned. I'm not flying to India or anywhere if I have a fever/flu and just need to get looked at. I would definitely fly somewhere for a planned surgery.
