Because OP posted this to “Videos” and clearly was meant to be meme material, not necessarily directed at diminishing a whole industry? And you didn’t clarify “this post”… sooo yeah, I assumed (what I took as reasonably) that since this is outside a STEM community that you were referring to me. But cool if that was a misunderstanding on my part - my apologies if that was leveled at OP. Thanks for clarifying even if I don’t think OP was doing anything other than going for the lols. But maybe I missed some undertow…
I’ll let my other point stand on it’s own. I believe whole heartedly we should challenge autonomous driving companies to do the right thing.

That’s most definitely not what’s going on here with me personally. I’m not bent out of shape about autonomous driving and demonstrated that largely it’s competent and better than most human drivers already. It’s already happening. But I appreciate the dumb and panicky shot across the bow. Then the chef’s kiss of “trash like this post” claiming I am making the industry look bad. No, please take a look at Waymo leadership. THEY are making the industry look bad. I’m not even against Waymo! They are actually doing heaps better than most and seem viable as a company. Please remember that challenging people to do better doesn’t mean you’re against them on the whole. Not everyone is 100% against you because they call out one aspect of a post either.

kidding aside, Mars is a great example of what will happen to Earth should our core stop generating our magnetic field. Also… Auroras!

I never said that, nor implied it. I certainly personally think it’s worth pursuit. I was pointing out Waymo was being given a bit of a pass there, and want to remind folks that profit incidentive that ignores or downplays human risk is not at all appealing and shouldn’t be given a free pass.
If Waymo can drive and “only” kills 1% of the equivalent per human miles driven, it’s certainly better right? But given that it’s a machine with a company that has a profit motive behind it, it’s goals need to be lofty. Why not set the bar at zero human deaths as a goal post and work from there? As soon as you say a single death is acceptable, it changes how everyone approaches it and turns into “well, is a second death acceptable?” and that’s going to quickly devolve into “what is an acceptable level of death for our profit margin.” To be clear, I’m arguing the answer should always be NONE. The alternative is a slippery slope, so I don’t want to give anyone a pass.

pretty sure Waymo is cool with not taking safety seriously over profits though

Another Illinoisan checking in. I detassled with a kid who died this way one summer. He was like 17. Do NOT fuck around with corn silos. Have a classmate who’s kid had his pantleg get caught in a tractor’s PTO (I think - it may have been something connected to it)… absolutely tore his leg up and almost bled out (reconstructed and he’s walking now). And knew another dude who had a tractor roll over on him on a slope. I personally, sank the end of a razor sharp derogueing hook into my thumb and narrowly avoided lopping it right off. It’s dangerous fucking work and demands your respect and constant attention.

Waiting for the “sounds like you need new friends” joke, but that’s really a bummer. It’s difficult to make friends and connect with people as it is, and then this shit polarizes us and makes what used to be a fairly private stance something that would rarely, if ever, come up in friendly conversation. Hopefully they aren’t raging Nazis or anything…
