  • I don’t believe we could ever get to a point where the standard of evidence is so high that it removes all possibility of killing an innocent person.

    That isn’t my only objection. I firmly believe that punishment as a deterrent for crime doesn’t work and it’s just used to satiate people’s desire for vengeance. You only have to look at recidivism rates to see that it’s pot luck whether someone will reoffend or not. For most crimes we should have a rehabilitation approach, if the aim is to lower the number of victims of crime and not just revenge.

    For the most heinous of crimes. Life in jail is my preferred approach. As perhaps we can learn more from those individuals to try and spot signs earlier and potentially help have less victims in the future.

    I want to stress that my goal would be to lower the number of victims of crime, by whatever means is best to do this. Punishment is just to satisfy the victims or general population rather than to lower the number of potential future victims.

  • Fair enough.

    I do think the visuals here were great. We had crips and bloods colours both sharing the stage. That’s a bold statement.

    I’ll go watch the two you mentioned as I’ve not seen them. Although I’m not a fan of either of those people, musically.

  • I can see the benefits but I can also see the downsides. Where do all the people who have driving jobs go? Do they just stop working as many might be too old to train for something new.

    Where does liability fall for accidents?

    What about cyberattacks? These are all things that need to be considered.

  • But you missed the point in that had Netflix failed you could be here saying “see Blockbuster were correct”.

    I’m not trying to be confrontational here and I’m saying this as I feel I might be coming across that way. What I’m trying to say is for every naysayer you can find someone who was the opposite and vice versa for all your examples. If that makes sense.

  • I am in my 40’s and been in the internet pretty much since its inception.

    I see Waymo are quite active in US cities so thanks for that.

    Let’s come back in a few decades and we can look back on this and see whose guess, cause that’s all we are doing, is closest to the truth.

    Just like many people could see the future of Netflix, there will always be a Blockbuster laughing them out of the room.

  • Steve Balmer isn’t the most sound minded individual and it’s almost expected that Microsoft is going to play down Apple.

    I don’t know too much about Clifford Stall but doesn’t seem like an expert in technology and so a poor assessment is to be expected.

    3D TVs. We could find people who said 3D TVs were a fad. Almost like people say both things and they can’t all be correct.

    To be clear. I think self driving cars might be a think in the distant future but not in mine or my children’s lives. Tesla has an insane amount of data and even they struggle in different sunlights and you couldn’t apply to that to the uk as the roads are so different that you would need an amount of data filmed in the UK. Then do that for all countries.

    Are any other manufacturers even attempting this problem because Tesla is losing market share by the day and it won’t be long before their investors will want them to stop spending money on FSD to allow them to turn a profit. What with Elon turning most people away from his companies for being a cunt.
