    “Sorry I endangered your life, but I cannot be bothered to reroute for a minute.”

    Yes mistakes happen, but the healthier solution is for people to accept the consequences of their actions. Your view is a manifest to the egocentric society we decry every so often.

    If someone crashs into you doing an invasive lane change (or any other mistake correction) I hope you’re thankful for them not adding to the world’s wasted hours.

    What the fuck man.



  • Yes, but not in the way we envision it.

    Wealth inequality will increase. Drastically. There will be a small group of people owning basically everything. But they still need cheap labor and subjects, plus someone needs to consume their products. Because jobs will be limited UBI will be implemented: as a baseline to keep us alive, not as a tool for general prosperity.

    Watch “Elysium” how this bleak world may look. It’s not a great movie, but has that “everyone but a few people is super fucked”-theme locked down.



  • They understand the theories and underlying principles, but the sheer amount of data makes it impossible to actually verify it.

    An ELI5 comparison would be a hill of stones: you know when you throw more stones onto it, a “landslide” will occur and rearrange the hill. For a very small hill of 10 stones you may even be able to know input and output (“if I throw a stone there, the stones will be like this after the landslide”). But you cannot predict the same for a hill of 1000000 stones, even tho the “rules” are the same. You know what will happen, but you have no way to predict the outcome, or verify that everything went as expected.

    The theory / math is not the problem. The scale is.
