I mean imagine being full of vigor to go out and do great things in the tech world, and then get your life almost destroyed by a stupid lawsuit at a young age by people who are much "stupider".
Many of us would absolutely be just as contrarian towards general society as he is, and idolize contrarian figured like Musk.
Doesn't mean that the work he is doing is not valid. It's a shame though because his ideology is very likely to hinder the progress in his companies (like for example policy against remote work).
I think that was a great mission for the individual, George Hotz. It's beneficial to be humbled by complex systems and imposing bureaucracy -- it makes future endeavors better informed.
I thought he was doing AI self-driving. I see we are now moving the goalposts to "generalized intelligence" so I suppose there was no point for him to put up with just cars anymore.
They removed the human from the car. There’s still humans to recover from the edge cases. I don’t know if they actually remote control the cars or if they have to send a driver though.
When I tried waymo a month or two ago a remote "driver" took over. When we called the support center about it later they told us that it's not them literally taking over the controls, but only giving some additional guidance to the system.
Define "fix." Twitter is a tool used by extremists to reach massive audiences. Some of those extremists have socially destructive and violent objectives. Responding to harassment and hate speech involves understanding the psychology of harassers and racists so that incentives can be designed not to reward those behaviors. IMO, "fixing" Twitter isn't just about fail whales and 500 errors.
