It is funny that I ended my last comment with the following: "It is pointless to debate whether definitions are or are not important when the actual issue being debated here is whether Tesla is good or bad." and you're seemin

Yes, this is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. A Tesla fan could also give you an equally logical explanation about how the "regulatory definition" of "recall" is outdated because it is from an era in whi

Maybe not recalls specifically, but the continued improvement of Tesla's software even after purchase is absolutely a selling point of their cars, especially in the era before widespread Android Auto and CarPlay when the software in ca

The specific example that other user gave clearly did not have OTA updates. But like EVs in general, the industry wide move to more OTA updates was in large part due to the competition that Tesla presented forcing the rest of the industry t

You're ignoring the difference in the Tesla update being pushed out to cars immediately, while the other manufacturer's update waited until you happened to bring your car in for servicing. How many miles did you continue to drive

It is funny how Tesla fans' and critics' philosophy on which definitions to use depends entirely on the topic being discussed. For the Tesla fan, the colloquial definition of "recall" is what we should go by because the

I'm not talking about this philosophically so you can call it whatever you want sentience, consciousness, self-determination, or anything else. From a purely practical perspective, either the AI is giving itself its instructions or ta

> Evil human masters might impose a dystopia Why are you assuming this is the worst case scenario? I thought human intentions didn’t translate directly to the AI’s goals? Why can’t a human destroy the world with non-sentient AI?
772.
by slg 2y ago
You are choosing to pick a nit with my phrasing instead of understanding the underlying point. The "intentions of their human masters" is a higher level concern than an AI potentially misinterpreting those intentions.
773.
by slg 2y ago
I agree, but that is removing the nuance that in this specific case Y is a prerequisite of X so focusing solely on X is a mistake. And for sake of clarity: X = sentient AI can do something dangerous Y = humans can use non-sentient AI to do

I think that is missing the point. The AI's goals are what are determined by its human masters. Those human masters can already have nefarious and selfish goals that don't align with "human values". We don't need
