on Waymo pulls over, calls cops on juvenile riders who had 'ghost gun,' authorities say in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 3d ago
And the parents made zero agreements with Waymo before putting their kids in one? Sounds pretty unlikely.

I agree with that for the most part.
I’m not sure if being children has another layer to it in this case. To a point, school are not accused of false imprisonment if they “detained” a misbehaving child in detention. It is not obvious to me Waymo did something illegal or immortal.
But overall I agree we should pay attention and the same facts with an 18 year old would probably be different (gun probably legal, ect).

I agree the headline and article don’t match. The ghost gun part is actually confusing. Waymo had no way of knowing if it was a ghost gun.

It seems like a pretty weird outlier event in which the worst thing did not happen.
I would want anyone on the street to report children going around with that gun. Call me crazy.

I would suggest people read the article. Their is no way in hell an Taxi/Uber driver would be ok with kids bringing a “Loaded AR Style Assault Rifle” into their car.

on OpenAI’s feud with mathematicians is only escalating in c/technology@lemmy.world · 13 Sep 2026
Depends. It is way often more right than it is wrong, however if you have a long enough chat, the chance that it produces a falsehood approaches 100%. Of course humans produce errors too.

on China’s Huawei branded a criminal enterprise as tech firm’s US trial opens in c/technology@lemmy.world · 12 Sep 2026
Pretty much. Most administrations historically try to use the US spying power, financial power, ect. prudently. Trump has taken every little advantage we have over other countries (especially financial institutions) and put the screws to everyone. A century of trust building pissed away for his personal gain and random grievances. Not saying no one else did this, but several magnitudes less.

on Auto Companies Call For Ban On Chinese-Made Cars in c/technology@lemmy.world · 5 Sep 2026
Screw these guys. US automakers have basically abandoned any attempt to build an affordable, small, electric car leaving a giant gap for the Chinese to fill, and we would all be better off if they did.
I’ve owned a Chevy bolt for 4 years and love it, but Chevy/GM keeps trying to kill it (2nd cancellation in mid 2027) and move everybody to an electric Equinox. If they don’t want to build small affordable (hopefully electric) cars, screw them, no sympathy. They clearly know people would buy these Chinese electrics.

on US government sides with OpenAI on issue of training LLMs on copyrighted material: »it is critical for the United States to ‘retain global leadership in artificial intelligence.« in c/technology@lemmy.world · 3 Sep 2026
I consider myself somewhat of a LLM.

on The Internet Is Kind of a Predatory Cesspit Now in c/technology@lemmy.world · 30 Aug 2026
It’s crazy to me how much money these companies can make off of human attention. Trying to inhabit places that doesn’t have monetary value.

Yep. Sick of giant phones. Crazy hard to find a small phone with decent specs.

I definitely don’t have that problem 😂.

on The best Spotify alternatives to ease your conscience in c/technology@lemmy.world · 15 Aug 2026
I have tried: Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, You Tube Music, Tidal
I now stick with Tidal. Started by (very rich) artists. They pay musicians 3-4X more than Spotify. Highest sound quality available. Good app and works with smart speakers.
BTW with Soundiiz it is easy to sync you playlists across multiple platforms, so no friction with switching.

on Spotify threatens industry with ad-skipping tool: "Skip Ahead" is available for Premium users in selected markets, and enables them to skip entire ad breaks, intros, sponsorship messages. in c/technology@lemmy.world · 11 Aug 2026
Spotify is terrible for artists and pays peanuts compared to other services like Tidal. I understand the app is great, but it is not worth it. Spotify is all in on AI music to save even more money. Terrible company.

on Now we have a timeline of the OpenAI accidental attack against Hugging Face in c/technology@lemmy.world · 9 Aug 2026
They would also sell the body armor in that analogy. The good news is AI is so unpopular, there is no way they are getting immunity like social media platforms.

on YouTube’s AI slop detector incorrectly targets Kurzgesagt as other creators fear same fate - Dexerto in c/technology@lemmy.world · 8 Aug 2026
I am super sceptical of anything made in the last year. Youtube will close to being worthless if the trend continues.
The comparison is ok, but aren’t there a few magnitudes more viruses than cancers?..and wouldn’t they get a ton of positive publicity from just solving one?..like way more than solving a math problem?
