when it comes to strong AI, > 100 years to availability is a better bet, and it may well be never.
It will be never, unless somebody comes up with a testable and universally accepted definition of "strong AI". As it is, the concept of "strong AI" is nothing but vague hand-waving and a waste of time.
This is false reasoning. Success requires hard work, but hard work does not lead to success unless native ability (talent) is already present. I could practice singing 12 hours a day for the next 10 years, and I would still suck at singing. I just don't have the talent (genes) needed to be a good singer, and I never will.
You may well be able to only measure secondary effects and not the thing itself. That makes the cause extra-physical and the effect physical.
Then you still have no reason to claim that "the thing itself" actually exists outside of your fanciful imagination.
Which is why physicalists claim that there is no free will. Their illusion collapses otherwise.
That's because "free will" is hand-wavy religious concept that has no reality outside of philosophical navel-gazing. You're one to talk about illusions.
True. The issue is autonomy not AI, "Strong" or "Weak". An autonomous killing machine is a danger to anyone; a million autonomous killing machines is a danger to everyone.
Would you walk into a theater, and find out that the movie was not playing in 3D, and turn around and leave?
Irrelevant, as in any multiplex that shows a blockbuster in 3D will also show it in 2D. Guess which sells out first? Yes, the 3D version even with a higher price.
3D one of those things that could be in every TV with near minimal cost, polarized plastic is cheap.
Polarized plastic 3D glasses never worked that well because there is no way to flip the polarization of the video image fast enough. Theatrical 3D uses two projectors with a fixed filter over each lens, so no need to flip.
And yet, whenever there is a blockbuster shown at the local multiplex, it is always the 3D version that sells out first. IMAX 3D in particular is the preferred format for all new blockbusters.
It turns out lots of Volvo owners are idiots and step on the gas instead of the brake
That's because, unlike European cars, American cars of that era had small gas pedals and enormous brake pedals, so the drivers never needed to be careful where their foot went.

All EVs should include range extending generators.
It wouldn't need to be very big, either: a 5hp generator
would only cost about $1000 and would fit in the trunk.
And he must be fluent in Hindi.

This is exactly the same problem faced by autofocus systems in cameras - and they work pretty well.
it would theoretically be possible
No it wouldn't, unless you define "theoretically" as "any shit I make up".
And cars that go over cliffs.
Which is to say, social psychology is a crock.

We're still paying 0.528kWh for solar here in Ontario
That's because there is no sun in Ontario.
You should move to Kelowna.
Robots don't commit suicide.
Kiss my shiny metal ass.
Texas A&M is ranked 74.
That's pretty bad, considering there are only 50 states.
Do you mean Soylent Green?
So let's just leave AI out of it.
True. The issue is autonomy not AI, "Strong" or "Weak".
An autonomous killing machine is a danger to anyone; a million autonomous killing machines is a danger to everyone.
Did anybody else read that as "Evil Scientists Have Told the Pentagon That AI Won't Threaten Humanity"?
Exactly.
A 120" 3D image in a darkened room is delightful. The glasses still suck, though.
For 3D to hurt you have to have lousy vision
FTFY.

During the whole thankfully-short boxoffice 3d craze of the early 2010's, I can count the number of people who told me they liked it on zero hands
Too bad you don't have any hands. How do you jerk off?
They never wanted it at home, and they still don't want it in theatres.
My local mutliplex always shows a 2D version in addition to the 3D version, and it is always the 3D version that sells out first.
I have in the past, and will continue to in the future, drive across town to find a 2D showing of a movie instead of being forced to watch in 3D.
Well, unlike you, most of the rest of us have two eyes.
NOT "3D TV" at all, it's fucking stereoscopy, dipshit
So is "3D" vision, dipshit.
Peter spent MILLIONS of hie OWN money developing and perfecting the technology.
Peter who? James Cameron made Avatar, which was not only 3D but the highest-grossing movie of all time.
And yet, whenever there is a blockbuster shown at the local multiplex,
it is always the 3D version that sells out first.

In my opinion a good attentive driver, even with automatic systems engaged, will still keep his attention where it belongs: on the road.
Unless he has fallen asleep, which is very likely if he doesn't generally need to pay attention.
