Yeah, but what does need to change? Replacing the binary at runtime without downtime is indeed one way. What about making stuff read-only on a much more expansive scale? Config, data, code, etc is all seen as the same thing and cannot be easily managed separately. Roll-back should also be made easy. Handwaving perhaps but I think additional granularity of permissions and control is inevitable.

There should exist a vulnerability disclosure intermediary. They can function as a barrier to protect the scientist/researcher/enthousiast and do everything by the book for the different countries.

Wait until you find out about WebWifi

Think so too. We will be an ancient artifact tied to a biological substrate surviving nowhere else in the universe and very dumb.

There also will not be one AI. There will be many, all competing for resources or learning to live together.

That's what we can teach them now. Or they will teach us.

Any background info on the betting on cameras alone? It sounds as silly as betting on an artificial version of our proprioception to be implemented in cars to measure acceleration. I also don't think they went all the way regarding neuromorphic engineering with spiking neural nets and artificial retinas. It's just so random to me what was decided to be good enough for autonomous navigation.

Tesla went from very expensive cars down to cheaper ones. It would make so much more sense to do the same for perception. First go over board and go for high bandwidth input and lots of processing power and optimize later.

"I've often found myself uneasy when LLMs (Large Language Models) are asked to quote the Bible. While they can provide insightful discussions about faith, their tendency to hallucinate responses raises concerns when dealing with scripture, which we regard as the inspired Word of God."

Interesting. In my very religious upbringing I wasn't allowed to read fairy tales. The danger being not able to classify which stories truly happened and which ones didn't.

Might be an interesting variant on the Turing test. Can you make the AI believe in your religion? Probably there's a sci-fi book written about it.

Building technology might be actually kind of easy compared to finding product-market fit. The latter might be better described as "sales team - network - existing practices - existing monopolies - adoptation rate - product iteration speed - right region" fit.

Retrospective questions would also be really great. Why did the lights not turn off downstairs this night? Or other questions involving history.

Through voltage glitching isn't it? Which rev protects against it? Must be quite new.

Makes me think of firebreaks. What are the equivalents of firebreaks in the sector?

I think this should be launched in Europe first. Fuel is more expensive. Regulations on how long to drive are strict.

And with 400 miles it's already that far that you're not anymore in the country I live in (the Netherlands).

Does this person respect certain people in their environment? Why, on what basis?

It seems something makes this person tick but it hasn't been figured out what that is.

It's not about the contents of those disagreements. It's about them not being in a collaborative mode. It might be lack of creativity, lack of autonomy, lack of perceived excellence.

Just my two cents with the little info I got here.
