It's unfair to cast the mom that way, there is no way you could justify allowing your own child to die. This is really a story about the power of denial and survival of the ego. She has no choice but to continue to believe otherwise ... The horror

From the paper: "Using generated test cases, we find that statistical machine-learning models trained solely from patient data are grossly insufficient and have many dangerous blind spots." This paper states fake patient data with no processing can't be used in predictive models in real time.

Huh. I would put good money on the culprit being phones. Both pedestrians and drivers being on them more. Seems much more plausible than a lot of the theories on this thread. More streaming and data available means we never have to be off them.

Google "planned obsolescence"

Thank you for the post. As a recovering academic I always enjoy seeing those who escaped be successful :) I hope it's a safe space to suggest your interpretation of AI and generative algorithms is not altogether correct. This does not contradict your point but could be used as a red herring.

Interesting! Hamas used deepfakes on Whatsapp in their incursion to get people out of their house. They put audio feepfakes of people into chats to get people to come out so they could shoot them. What a world!
