I would still want a human being to verify the diagnosis before anything gets cut. ;-)

I love drones, it's like skeet-shooting with prizes!
the entire car is coded by low-bidder, it wouldn't surprise me if there are hacks out there...which is why I don't like computer controlled cars in the first place...
Anything connected to the internet can be hacked.
Yeah, I think it should never be involved in decision-making... Pointing out a place for doctors to explore maybe...actually diagnosing? no.
I used to think that the benefit of using AI in medicine, specifically radiology, was plausible.. There is SO much data in a CT scan or MRI that human eyes just can't see, you lose soo much granularity converting a 3D scan to a 2D image on a screen so some bloodshot doctor can look at it...
AI should, in theory, be able to read a scan and find pinprick tumors or irregularities and at least tell the doctors where to look...
But now, watching LLM's do their thing, I'm now convinced that there isn't an AI around that is worth it's weight in horse-shit.
Yeah... 2015 was about where cellular connected cars started being ubiquitous... And of course car manufactures were too cheap to put two computers in the car (one for infotainment, the other for engine management) so the modem has direct access to the ECU, which means throttle control, brakes, steering(?!), everything.
Some of the happiest moments of my childhood were getting a holly six-pack dialed in perfectly on my old Javelin... And balancing a six-pack is tricky as hell.. ;-)
I'm a FIRM believer in fix-first... Too many people treat cars as disposable... and I maintain that keeping a 60 year old classic on the road is better for the environment than any new car... We (the world, not just the US) produce nothing but crap these days...cars have a life-expency of about 5 years, 10 at the outside (if you're a non-BMW built Toyota that is)
My 2014 is 12 years old and still runs like it's brand new... I'll get another 15 years out of it easily... And when the engine dies, I'll replace it.
The only thing that kills cars permanently is rust..rust is the only true killer.
I won't own anything made after 2015... That's when LTE chips started becoming standard in cars...
I told my wife, my next car will have a carbuerator.
Nope, fuck-no, not even close. Never going to fucking happen. I have dashcams inside (pointed out) but I keep the mic muted because I don't need any of my ramblings recorded publicly.... (I also have it set not to record speed.. for obvious reasons)
I remember saying that in the early 2000s...
So wait, a technology built on stealing Intellectual Property suddenly has a problem with Intellectual Property theft?
Oh absolutely. Like the "cologard" test... an early screening to identify a problem before it becomes a problem.
