Well put.

And frankly, the #ML community needs a serious (technical and ethical) wake-up call.

Many would gush over Tesla’s so-called “#AI Days” while neglecting to demand any safety case.

That advanced and legitimatized Tesla’s wrongdoings - wrongdoings where people have died avoidably.

These are #SafetyCritical systems and not “AIs”.

A robust systems safety process is the real, competitive value - not the data, NN architecture, sensors, compute, or whatever.

Tesla has no process.

@chargrille I leased a VW ID.4 back in May of 2021 in Texas. My dealer took the $7500 credit - which lowered the monthly payments.

I bought out the lease and sold it to Carvana in October of last year when I moved from Dallas to Detroit (where I was able to go car-free).

I did not claim any EV-related credit on my last year's taxes as the instructions in the tax software clearly prohibited it.

#Threads does not seemingly support #AltText on images at launch (h/t to @mmasnick's post on Threads pointing that out).

@BruceMirken @atomicpoet @socialmedianews Honestly, LinkedIn is basically indistinguishable from Facebook to me these days.

Perhaps it is just that I am into #manufacturing, but the comments sections that I see are… well… often less-than-professional and highly politically-charged.

Alt-right crap runs wild.

I just roll my eyes and log out.

Much of everything else is just cold messages from recruiters and cold sales pitches.

I think I am going to just dump it.

@Gargron Congrats! ?

@Gargron Thank you for all that you do! I added my support just now.
