Yes. It’s the bots, see Gersham’s law 'bad comments drive out good comments.

The writer needs AI to pad the words in an article, and the reader needs AI to sum up an article quickly.

not living near cities

Fewer cars, more green-space in the countryside, so not a huge worry. Cities should really focus on public transit; it fixes so many problems, no more drinking and driving, freeway congestion, traffic accidents, cost of owning car.

Lot’s of people can’t be truck drivers because they can’t be away from their families; having young children, elderly parents. We can transform this into a work-from-home job.

I think that there would be a fortune to make if a company just says they are paying workers to remotely drive cars. They’d be able to get proper regulations in place, and then also take over the entire trucking market. It would still probably cost less than trying to develop the AI.

If a company simply said that their cars are driven remotely by a real person, I think people would be happier with the technology and we’d see such car technology really take-off.

Imagine getting board of driving and paying somebody $20 in another country to drive for a 2 hours for you, while you texted or something

How long before all trucks in the N.America are driven remotely by cheaper labor, that can easily hand off to another driven. The truck would be able to drive virtually endlessly between coasts.

The biggest challenge the USA would face would be all the sabotage of the oil fields, Niagara Falls generating station, nuclear reactors, power plants, power lines going to the USA. The American army would also be over-extended meaning that China would make a play for both Taiwan and much of the eastern portion of Russian, specifically all of Russia’s Pacific coast, right up to Alaska.

If the USA invaded Canada; Nato is over, The USA dollar is over and every country ditches it, World goes into a great depression, France places nuclear missiles in Quebec, and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and threatens nuclear war, China would probably take the opportunity to invade Taiwan, Russia would use a small nuclear device in Ukraine as he USA becomes isolated.

Or a small pick-up with a 200 drones in the back, launched close the front of a battle field. Russia lost much of its navy to Ukraine. Anything large and slow is a good target.

We’ve seen something like this in the Russian/Ukraine battle. Russia’s old equipment couldn’t withstand modern shoulder fired rockets. However those are expensive.
Now we have a stalemate, and both sides are using cheaper drones. Overnight, much of the tanks/fighter jets became obsolete because of drones and drone swarms. So now the world (especially Europe/USA) rearm.

200 drones, each with a high explosive. Cast like a net. Each bomb has a radius of 10ft. So know you have 2000 square feet of carpet bomb, that you can somewhat direct.

Let’s say that it is economical to waster up to $100k to kill one solder. A drone fleet of a hundred drones, costing $100k is then cost effective. This is basically replacing the AK47 machine gun, with drones that are used like bullets at this point.

I don’t think they’ll be like land mines. They’ll cause many problems though. Giving a solider 300 cheap drones with bombs on them, will cost little money. That solders range, to cause trouble, will be extended to 2km, from the 100m that their machine is currently effective from.

How long before you get swarms of small supersonic, cheap, missiles and rockets, that people can’t hear coming?

It’s crazy how fast this new war tech is moving.

Conflicts around the world are going to move to drones, not just Russian/Ukraine.

Whoever can build millions of these, yearly, and cheaply will have a significant advantage. Will be able to sell them to other conflict zones

An AK-47 is only piratical to 100meters. It was cheap machines guns that rolled back colonial empires like the British, and French, in places like Africa.

I can only wonder what cheap drone tech will do to change world politics?

Consumption is still growing, but the ‘oil’ in Venezuela is just tar, the ‘oil’ in the United States come from fracking. The days of sweet crude are behind us.

This is such a crazy situation, who knows how it’ll end up. It might spiral out of control, I can picture all copyright/patent/trademark international agreement being shredded in the next 3 years during the remaining term.

And hiding the date the video is from, Youtube is getting worse.

If this was based on scientific research, you bet that the creators would be pushing the academics that formed the policy to endorse this. This is just junk pseudo-science. Serious researchers would do small sample testing before rolling out a wide program, especially for something like this
