Yep, if Tesla says they are selling a driving service, let's let that driver take responsibility for its actions. It's the only way to ensure these companies are as safe as possible.
Again the point is that they are causing accidents for some. Some who will pay more for insurance, not because they made a mistake while driving but because they had bad luck. No one is denying they are better than average in the right circumstances.
You're completely missing the point. I'm not denying that people in general get into less accidents. The insurance company doesn't care whether Autopilot causes an accident for someone or not, they're happy to charge either way. I'm just saying the person who had Autopilot get them into an accident due to faulty programming and lack of testing, they don't deserve to have their premiums go up.
Can't say I have ever in my life been in a vehicle with a person I didn't feel safe with. Maybe 1 in 10,000 you see doing something stupid and you're ready to call everyone a bad driver.
As long as they are not out committing crimes, what's the problem? If paying them a pittance of UBI keeps them from mugging people on the street than that's money well spent. I would even join them, except I need a lot more from my life.
I'll admit it, if Musk meant to do it it's smart. Starve your competitors and prepare for the future, it is right out of Steve Job's playbook. It's just a little more dickish than I expected from him.
I think we can safely say 'being able to learn several things and understand what it required of it without reprogramming' would be a reasonable definition on the conservative side.
They said the same thing in the 90's about programming, and look how that turned out. A few hot spots if you wanted to work for a lot of money at the expense of quality of life, and competing with foreigners from third world countries. I've known a few people who left for a real good position in my lifetime, but that only lasted for so long and a lot came back.
This research could actually be interesting if they offered a few different bundles in a few tiers grouped by ratings. To one group offer your basic Netflix selection. To the next group, offer shows of around average popularity and to a third group offer absolute premium content. You would start to get a more interesting picture of where the breaking point is to start to pull people away from piracy.
This. The other day I searched for the TV show Highway Thu Hell and the best Netflix could give me was Highway to Heaven. Now that I think about it that's rather comical irony!
I watch very little TV, and as such I want to make sure that I will completely enjoy anything that I do sit down to watch. I don't know about Hulu, but Netflix just seems like a bargain bin. Never has there been a greater selection of movies and shows that didn't quite make it. I consider the subscription fee inexpensive, but it is fairly spot on for what you get. As such, there doesn't tend to be much in Netflix that I want to watch ever. Not surprised it didn't fill the needs of people who pirate.

That's stupid, if people had crystal balls this wouldn't even be a discussion. You would know every flaw lurking in Autopilot and they would be fixed.
If that were the case, it wouldn't get into accidents.

Ok then there is no discussion, computers are perfect because of their awareness and reaction times and therefore will never get in an accident.

Fine, so screw the people who actually are better than Autopilot?
Steering wheels are expensive technology, bro.
And as I keep saying, would it have happened to THAT human? If not, then we are all fools to trust the technology.

Why do people talk about no lidling noise being a good thing? I've always loved that sound and tried to accentuate it.
Why are they buying up batteries? To eliminate their manufacturing problems for themselves.
FIFY.
Fuck everyone else. It's just good business.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could trust these companies to only use your voice for the purpose you intend as a consumer?
You should try an Android phone made at some point after 2013.
I'd pay at least $25 a month for that!

Shut up and enjoy the content! :-)

Is anyone forcing Ireland to be in the EU? Honest question. I thought they were there because they wanted to be.
