Have you actually seen a helicopter? Know anything more than they are rotary wing aircraft? Do you know about rotor wash or range, especially when carrying a load? Do you know how difficult flying with a hanging load it is and how much stre

> $25/gallon once it hits mass production. Which one? I’m guessing you just did research on this and just learned they existed? One of them costs $80/liter now, but said they can get it down to $6/liter through scaling. &g

Great, and I’ve live through a hurricane where there was no power for a literal month yet national guard easily brought in gas trucks and cans. Judging by your idea that electricity is always available (why do people in FL have 5kw generato

In Canada you are concentrated into mostly the lower 1/3 of the country, which is smaller than the US. So sorry but no. There’s other places, like leaving CA, WA, and OR now and the tornadoes in the middle. Average people don’t charge

Except you run out of charge during said stop and go traffic. With a liquid fueled car you just add more. I’m guessing that since you’re using km instead of mi you’re outside the US. Perhaps your experiences won’t translate over here? The U

Because I can fuel my car up at home in 5 minutes. any liquid or even gas based fuel would be capable of the same. But now I can only use a level 2 charger at home. We haven’t even touched on evacuations and how many people will be killed b

> Perception by non-EV buyers that charging is difficult, slow, unavailable, etc. This is what Tesla fought against at the beginning and arguably has one of the best "solutions" for. There’s also an entire segment being ignored

Yes, lets go with the least cost example instead of the average. Whether or not the CEO of walmart drives whatever supercar is irrelevant. Supercar tires on average do not cost $2k a set. Lets get real.

You cannot land a helicopter everywhere a mule can go. You clearly have no experience here.

Then you've created a net deficit. You can't ignore algebra and pay more than it costs to make something and put it on the shelves. Without those paying people to put it on the shelves making more than it costs to pay those people

Bring this back to the real world then, how can this happen? If it's possible then someone who doesn't care about profit would create this already. Therefore not possible without forced adoption.

I also certainly don’t know my own account numbers, much less a relatives. How am I going to know if they’ve given me the correct account details?

History is circular. Another example, we have cars and yet are pushing to move back to not having them.

I’m all for capitalism. What Im tired of is tech workers, of which I am one, automating people’s jobs away.

by tekknik 4y ago
No, nobody can and that’s the point. Except the flaw in your thinking is your applying what happened in the past to the present. Nobody has every automated a human brain before, they mostly automated muscles away. This time is different so

It also implies the market can handle, and needs, the scaling. In some industries, like say food services, the problem isn’t lack of people.

Because most engineers document, in English and great detail, the designs of their systems. So the English already exists and will continue to. Taking this English and turning it into code will be the job of AI, not a programmer.

Just stop, this entire argument that a child comes out capable of speaking, understanding speech, and other concepts, is just ridiculous. We all know a child doesn’t come from the factory this way, we can stop over thinking it.

So push forward and if it destroys humanity then so what? Is that also a separate problem?

by tekknik 4y ago
So forced adoption? If they wanted it they would vote for it. You don’t see a problem with forcing people to do something they don’t want? This is scary, some people seem to be so gleeful at the idea of AI taking over everything they’re wil

If everybody makes the same amount then all you’ve done is inflate the currency. Money is used to control access to finite resources, with the goal to get more tokens than the other person. If you give everybody X tokens per month, then in

You’re glossing over a lot of specifics. Who owns the machines? Who dictates how much food you get? Medical care? Who says who can have children? And how many? Or will this result in infinite food, water, and shelter?

So then they move to another country, who maybe wants to use it for nefarious reasons, who won’t tax them.
