  • The amount of movies marked R in America that get G/PG ratings in Europe and other places in the world because they show nudity is rather high. It’s a running joke that showing tits, love and affection gets you restricted but copious amounts of violence, gore and murder is okay for everyone in the US, while rest of the world has it reversed, and that it explains quite a lot about the US.

    First one to come to mind is Amelie. It’s R, restricted to adults only like porn in the US, South-Korea and Malaysia, but 7 in Sweden & Swizerland, 11 in Finland, G in Japan and Spain and so on.


  • It turns off so that it doesn’t do anything stupid after the cash as the sensors or systems might be damaged, it still gets counted as a crash where autopilot was active.

    We also receive a crash alert anytime a crash is reported to us from the fleet, which may include data about whether Autopilot was active at the time of impact. To ensure our statistics are conservative, we count any crash in which Autopilot was deactivated within 5 seconds before impact, and we count all crashes in which the incident alert indicated an airbag or other active restraint deployed. <…> In practice, this correlates to nearly any crash at about 12 mph (20 kph) or above, depending on the crash forces generated. We do not differentiate based on the type of crash or fault

    And if the time between the crash and autopilot disengaging is over 5 seconds, I think “your honor. I wasn’t driving when the car wrecked, it was the autopilot” doesn’t work either, especially as you are still always responsible for what the car does, autopilot or not.

    Don’t get me wrong though, Musk is still an idiot and Tesla lies about the capability of the system in many ways which is partly the reason people think they can stop paying attention and let it do things on its own.





  • How unsurprising, a headline that technically doesn’t lie, but also gives a completely misleading impression. At least it has been fixed since: the current, accurate one is “Dropbox spooks users with new AI features that send data to OpenAI when used

    Because your files only get sent to the AI search service if you use the AI search feature, which it tells you will send the one specific file you are asking the AI to analyze to OpenAi. Which, you know… Duh?

    The third-party AI toggle is only turned on to give all eligible customers the opportunity to view our new AI features and functionality, like Dropbox AI. It does not enable customers to use these features without notice. Any features that use third-party AI offer disclosure of third-party use, and link to settings that they can manage. Only after a customer sees the third-party AI transparency banner and chooses to proceed with asking a question about a file, will that file be sent to a third-party to generate answers. Our customers are still in control of when and how they use these features
