Without opening the link, the problem with every piece of data I’ve seen from Tesla is they’re comparing apples to oranges. FSD won’t activate in adverse driving conditions, aka when accidents are much more likely to occur. And/or drivers are choosing not to use it in those conditions.

Yeah, it's a dupe of the one that gets manually kicked off the front page after less than a day.

Shameful, really. The importance of public critique & awareness of OpenAI's leadership should go beyond the interests of YC.

So what happened to Daniel Kokotajlo, the ex-OAI employee who made a comment saying that his equity was clawed back? Was it a miscommunication and he was referring to unvested equity, or is Sama just lying?

In the original context, it sounded very much like he was referring to clawed-back equity. I’m trying to find the link.

> Half of our DNA is just old viruses which every cell in our body reproduces for no reason.

Seems like every time people think big things in the body are there for no reason, new developments later show them to be wrong.

I don’t care to say more than the above because I will already get downvoted for even this much.

Please re-read and reconsider the context of my post. This reddit-tier "must seek to contradict and attack others" behavior doesn't do anyone any good.

You only get knee and back problems when you're old, which is because the body just stops repairing itself as effectively as it does when you're young.

It's going to be far easier to re-enable the ability to self-repair our bodies as we do in youth than to completely change the function of two of our limbs.

Check out Rumble. I go there by default nowadays because most of the content creators I follow have been banned from YouTube and moved there as a replacement.

It is true.

See, I can do argument by contradiction too.

Even if that were true for all human populations and not just a select few, 100,000 years is still very short compared to 2 million estimated years of hunter-gathering.

Lots of studies out there which are correlational and thus meaningless, or worse, studies which intentionally produce false results due to being bought-and-paid-for. I don't have time to look at each link that page cites, but for example the American Heart Association is a terrible entity with worse than worthless recommendations which are completely not backed up by science.

Most of human evolutionary history was hunter-gatherer times, and they were not eating wheat. Farming is a relatively recent invention.

Before long OpenAI will be able to implement FSD by trivially handing the video feed and API calls to GPTX and asking it to drive.

I think the Tesla AI team is just unserious about the problem, probably largely because of Musk being a poor leader for the project.
