nobody who works for waymo will see the kingdom of heaven. anyone who supports these companies at the policy level gonna enjoy the other place
At least five FUBARed Waymo robots:
Market & Guerrero, SF
One is a problem, two a mistake, five a major ops screw up. Waymo has never fixed their cascading failure problem. Maybe they don't know how.
Fundamentally unfit for service at scale until they do, IMO.

What you do for work is at best, useless, and at worst, going to destroy humanity. You want to think you’re Marie Curie, experimenting with something dangerous that can change lives. You’re more like the girls of Atomic City, except you know what you’re working with. You know you’re building a bomb.

This is one of those cases.

Have you tried Apple's "Clean Up" ai function in Photos? It's advertised as being able to remove blemishes, distracting details, entire objects. But if you use it in any photo that contains nudity it switches to a censored pixelation mode. One step closer to my tweeted predictions.

this is a dysfunctional party that has no idea what it's doing or the likely consequences of its actions
It has been nearly 30 years since Congress passed Section 230 and gave platforms immunity from lawsuits.
Our children deserve a safer internet and tech companies need to be held accountable for what happens on their platforms.

We here at Strangers advocate for doing necromancy the old-fashioned way: with unholy rituals involving human remains, blood sacrifice, descent into demonic madness, and the creeping realization that parts of your soul you can never regain are being lost forever in the process. Also candles.
