It's a problem with all cars equipped with 'autonomous' tech:
"To be fair to Tesla, this problem isn't unique to the company. Most emergency braking systems on the market today won't stop for stationary objects at freeway speeds. These systems are not sophisticated enough to distinguish a stationary object on the road from one that's next to or above the road. So to make the problem easier to handle, the cars may just ignore stationary objects, assuming that the driver will steer around them." -Ars
"The Idea that an AI program can program it self based on trail and error experiences."
As long as it was programmed to do that, it will do that. If we call it self-programming software, that's an analogy, it's not like the software has a 'self' part that's 'deciding' what to do next.
So if I got this right, if American's bought the ads, they broke the law, the ad agency broke the law, it's employees broke the law, and everyone in the US who participated in the ads broke the law, and they're all acting as foreign agents.
"But still, regardless of who paid her, she would have to register because she is herself a foreigner."
Do you mean that because she's an employee of a foreign company that sells political ad campaigns to Americans she has to register herself, whether her employer already has or hasn't, if she doesn't want to get arrested when she travels to the US on other business.
Yes, and why isn't it being suggested that the fact you have 'ads' for both sides it's a strong indication 'the Russians', 'Iranians' or whatever are simply foreign businesses offering their services to Americans who want to influence the elections.
"Wasn't this settled already? With the "all comments that weren't pro-NN were submitted by Russian bots" argument?"
No, not at all. Where comments come from doesn't indicate who payed for them, and in this case they're talking about more than a dozen telecommunications trade groups, lobbying contractors and Washington advocacy groups.
"In other words I think responsibility becomes a matter of public policy when problems are perpetuated over many generations"
In the sense that when a dysfunctional behavior is taught over many generations, from parent to child, then its a good idea to not only consider the individual or familial levels, but to also consider larger frames (community, culture, systemics, etc).
"Hello, this is Bloomberg, we need to go through your server farm to systematically search for hidden microchips which could be in any of your server motherboards."
Sounds like your saying Bloomberg wrote the story without finding any evidence that "hidden microchips" existed.

We know it's possible to bore tunnels, there's lots of them in use all over the world, so I'm not sure what he's testing.

Yup, just as we are all cooperating with each other (and to a much larger extent than we are competing).

"Your brain is also just doing math."
The brain is doing a lot more than math.
And even if it tries to only do math it doesn't do it anything like AIs do it.

"I didn't see anything in the article saying she was in the US."
Right. I was confusing her with Maria Butina:
https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/w...
Thanks, I hadn't realized she was actually running campaigns while she was here, still it's ironic considering what the US does to other countries.
And who's paying for this ...
I can see that if the ones paying for the ads aren't American. But I find that's a stretch.
And that particular accusation coming from the US, who has an ongoing history of bloody foreign political manipulation, is ironic.
"But still, regardless of who paid her, she would have to register because she is herself a foreigner."
Do you mean that because she's an employee of a foreign company that sells political ad campaigns to Americans she has to register herself, whether her employer already has or hasn't, if she doesn't want to get arrested when she travels to the US on other business.
But in this case isn't it the firm that has to register.
Because it doesn't seem to make sense to ask the employees to register.
Yes, and why isn't it being suggested that the fact you have 'ads' for both sides it's a strong indication 'the Russians', 'Iranians' or whatever are simply foreign businesses offering their services to Americans who want to influence the elections.
If it's Americans paying her, isn't it them who should register, not her?

If a friend or family asked me what printer to buy I used to have a few suggestions but now it's only Brother.
All good points.
But It still isn't "self driving" if you need to hold the cars hand all the time.
Where just one small unexpected input can lead to catastrophic failure.
You can always add more and more outside input to help the car appear to be "self driving", but the more you do the less it is.
Electronic "train tracks", even very flexible and adaptive train tracks, won't make a car self driving.

No, it's just that when "one asshole nation" does it, it's kind of funny when they start to complain because someone else is doing it to them.
Though maybe sad describes it better than funny.
