The video strongly discourages the idea of data centers in space, portraying it as a speculative venture driven by the AI hype bubble. It argues that insurmountable technical challenges, particularly related to power, cooling, radiation, and bandwidth, make the concept practically infeasible in the near future. The analysis critiques the lack of feasibility of space-based data centers, and offers the Tyrannis checklist of problems that must be addressed, before the data center in space idea can be realistically considered. Ultimately, the speaker urges listeners to be wary of those capitalizing on the hype by selling an alluring but ultimately unworkable vision. The video info is summarized by transcriptly.
Waymo released safety data for their autonomous vehicles, and the numbers are pretty damn impressive. Having seen them in action this summer, they do some amazing things. They're coming to Philly next year, and I think this is a trend that is going to permanently change transportation.
The data to date indicates the Waymo Driver is already making roads safer in the places where we currently operate.
Specifically, the data below demonstrates that the Waymo Driver is better than humans at avoiding crashes that result in injuries â both of any severity and specifically serious ones â as well as those that lead to airbag deployments.
This hub compares the Waymo Driverâs Rider-Only (RO) crash rates to human crash benchmarks for surface streets. It leverages best practices in safety impact analysis and builds upon dozens of Waymoâs safety publications, providing an unprecedented level of transparency within the autonomous driving industry. By sharing our data and methodologies, we also invite you to join us as we push for advancements in measuring safety impact.
The Cloudflare outage this morning has all of the AI's down (at least ChatGPT and Claude). Productivity in the US this morning is lower than on New Year's Day.
Just had a moment where for whatever reason this thought about A I popped into my mind.
The earliest warning about our future with A I that I can remember came from Kubrick in 1968 ...
. "Open the pod bay doors, Hal," . "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that"
I was 15 back then. Been thinking about it ever since.
ymmv ...
Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose...
the crux of the matter, as it were...
