  • When you’re new to driving and not totally comfortable with it yet - most of your brainpower will be focused on controlling and handling the vehicle and taking your attention away from that to check signage is terrifying.

    This goes away with practice and experience. Eventually controlling the car will become muscle memory and you can devote your brainpower to broader observation of your surroundings and signage. Start with calm back roads, quiet residential streets, and gentle intersections. Preferably an area with a mix of things like stop signs, uncontrolled intersections, hill stops, school/play zones, crosswalks, and so on.

    It can be kinda fun too as you can explore neighbourhoods you’ve never been to before.











  • Don’t get me wrong - this is awful and is just another misstep in a long line of missteps by Microsoft.

    But I also can’t help but chuckle at this. It is so clear that “AI” as it has been developed today is hitting a peak of what it can do. These corporations are desperate to shove it in every product they possibly can to drive sales and valuations to make shareholders wet and yet the only things they ever advertise AI being capable of are crap like summaries, background removal, background insertion, grammar/typo checking, list making, web searching, etc. Most of it being crap that I have never once heard of a person being even remotely interested in… and why would they be? Why would someone want to edit their photos to add a different sky, new people, etc to create memories that never happened?



  • The guaranteed abuse of this technology far FAR outweighs the benefits, imo.

    A better solution to combat those disorders would be to prevent their formation in the first place with early detection and improved medical sciences and procedures.

    The human brain is one of the last places we have left that isn’t entirely owned and controlled by some corporation or state agency. I do not trust any government to regulate it properly and I do not trust a single corporation to develop it with good intentions. It would be abused instantly as shareholders pitch tents in their pants over selling it to law enforcement and advertisers.
