I know they both have semi autonomous systems that don’t rely on lidar. The navigate on autopilot presentation comma gave years ago seemed very Tesla. Comma’s self driving capabilities seem to lag a couple years behind Tesla.

I like George Hotz and I know the Lemmy community prefers open source tech, so I wanted to bring some awareness to an alternative you can add to your current car. But I know very little about self driving tech. Maybe I’m wrong in calling them similar.

Everyone here should check out comma.ai’s open pilot. It is similar to Teslas self driving system, but it’s open source. Perfect Elon replacement. And since they tap into the sensors on your existing car, I imagine they could leverage lidar if more cars had those sensors.

They sell hardware that is designed to run open pilot. Last I checked it was $1k, which feels pretty reasonable compared to what Elon is charging.

To be fair, Elon probably wasn’t taking ketamine back when he made that decision. He made that decision all by himself :)

Like I said in my other comment, maybe I’m just really missing the obvious, but that wheel looks to be part of the food cart. You gotta remember phones have been doing computational photography as part of the image processing for years. Weird things can happen without any AI involvement

Maybe I’m really missing the obvious here, but I’m a little worried we will overcorrect at some point and start accusing everything of being AI. Especially as image models get better.

Hank Green gives a great example of this where a rocket landing that looks odd was misclassified by many as AI despite it being real

EDIT: I think the best alternative reason I can present for the weird part of the image is that it’s a screenshot of street maps. There are two images stitched together where the cart and cart meet. The cart is moving slow so it doesn’t make it to the second image, and the white car moves relative to the first car slightly in the second image, making the bumper weird. It does feel like I’m grasping here. It’s probably AI.

Maybe I’m wrong and my AI detection is bad, but the quality of the rest of the text in that image compared to the license plate makes me think this was just a shitty clone stamp cover up job to hide the and of the plate number.

Edit: upon further looking the power lines do seem weird. But I still think the text alone doesn’t give it away. But I haven’t kept up with image models this past year. I guess the text behaves differently now

Totally agree nuclear is a great tool but totally being used for the wrong purpose here. Use those power plants to solve our existing energy crisis before you crate an even bigger energy crisis.

it said good, not safe. It will still kill you but in a good way

I feel like I woke up in the stupidest timeline where climate change is about to kill us, we decide stupidly to 10x our power needs by shoving LLMs down everyone’s throats, and the only solution to stay private is to 10x our personal LLM usage by generating tons of noise about us just to stay private. So now we’re 100x ing everyone’s power usage and we’re going to die even sooner.

I think your idea is interesting – I was also thinking that same thing awhile back – but how tf did we get here.

I actually have production access for Google Play Store as of a few days ago. Just need to do screenshots and make the store listing look nice. Maybe in the next week or so.

I would like to explore F-Droid soon, but that will take me a bit longer.

Sorry for the delay. I’m full speed ahead on PieFed support right now, so that’s taking up most of my time.

I’m having a hard time keeping up with all the lawsuits against them, but I think they already got hit by a judge for malicious compliance. From what I remember the judge came down pretty hard on them for that malicious compliance. I feel like they are just going to look at this and be like “obviously you are missing the point, so we are going to have to make the regulations even stricter”.

Yeah I think having it be in settings and not having 4 voting buttons was the right choice.

It’s crazy how engaging and well done Veritasium videos are and they’re just free to watch on YouTube.

There are so many people here that hate cloud based services. And the same people also hate JavaScript. Like you realize if your app was just static JavaScript files, you could literally just download the entire site to your computer and run it? Why is JavaScript the enemy?

JavaScript isn’t the enemy. The enshitification of technology is the enemy.

Just out of curiosity what percentage of people here are using Voyager as their Lemmy client?

But where do you drop into? The condition doctor? The car mechanic?
