The Air Canada AI chatbot gave wrong policies to someone around bereavement flights, went to court, and Air Canada lost having to refund the ticket price difference.
They tried to claim they weren’t responsible for the Ai.

So at least in Canada we have some precedent that if their AI pricing fucks up, it’s their own fault.
Delta CEO determined sales decline is related to customers calling in with complaints and the call center not handling them to their satisfaction. Fires entire call center staff and replaces with AI.
I think that’s even more morbid than my take lol.
I could just see it…
Rifle Person: Hey give me that ammo they gave you so we can kill some people
Ammo Person: Once I give you the ammo… you don’t mean kill me right?
Rifle Person: …
would a shotgun even be effective at that range? probably worried about getting too close as well.
around the world by up to 50%.
While doing a product change over of their best selling vehicle.
Sales are still down, almost certainly because of Musk, but it’s not as dire everywhere like that either.
E.g Spain where sales were bad and people like to cite a large number, was up 60.7% in June YoY. When you look at H2 2024 vs 2025, now it’s only down 0.9%. 2024 was already a low year, so being lower than 2024 isn’t good, but it’s not like a monthly number makes it look.
They are still down in nearly every market yes, but you trying to imply its 50% in so many places and things are dire would also be shoddy journalism not taking into account the change over.
The UK for example only started getting the new Y in June, lets see what the UK in Q3 looks like with a full quarter of Y deliveries. It’ll be down, but how much down.
Edit: Some clarity and other examples, but I also want to add, see how much more complicated an article can get rather than just focusing on the Cybertruck objectively on it’s own?
Edit: Also you can’t even buy the Standard Range RWD Model Y in all markets yet (~5k USD cheaper), but again, not that this alone will reverse the generalized sales decline induced by Musk.
The Mark Rover video showed the autopilot will continue anyway once the “object” is no longer in sight of the system
Ya, it would definitely do that, it’s just traffic aware cruise control. It’s probably part of why autopilot will turn itself off when a collision is imminent, because it’d probably just drive off after if it didn’t. It’s clear ahead? Go! I think the other reason is I think the true AEB system (not AP deciding to stop, but the AEB mechanism that’s always on) overrides it, and turns it off. Like the two are mutually exclusive systems. That’s just a hypothesis though. Simply ensuring the vehicle doesn’t continue after might be reason enough.
Why such hostility when you were asking a question about how people can live to that age and run?
There are countless things that can get in the way, but if you’re lucky with your health, that’s what it takes to live old and be able to run.
We can live that long, although it’s uncommon.
A key thing as you get older is to stay active and mobile. If you can it’ll be easier to remain mobile longer which will in turn help you live longer.
It can get hard though as bad knees or hips start impeding movement.
Edit: and the staying active as you get older isn’t like when you hit 70, but from what I’ve seen becomes more and more important in the 40s
All Teslas have AEB (automatic emergency braking) which is active at all times.
It’s not a stop for a light or stop sign type thing, but it will try to slow the vehicle if a crash is imminent.
Never expect AEB in any car to reliably prevent a crash. That’s not it’s main purpose. Reducing speeds is. It will have more success at prevention at slower speeds.
Edit: You can watch the EURO NCAP testing of it here on the 2025 Model 3
Clearly, the brainworms know they’re gonna be targeted by the tech in the future and need to stop it now.
Part of the right wing strategy is to be so fucking crazy that it makes the non crazy right wing people not seem right wing.
That doesn’t even mean these new moderarte/centrist people even think of themselves as right wing, they might really believe they are centrist, but the whole window has shifted right.
That also makes normal left wing stuff now seem radical in comparison to before.
Juvenile is probably going to easy on them. It’s toxic and not how a community like this should behave, and participating in things like that leads to further toxic participation.
About this incident specifically: maybe I was too quick to judge.
Really, that’s all I’m hoping people will realize and take forward with them in the future through this experience.
Still plenty of reasons to hate the company, this doesn’t change that.
It’s on Benzinga as well
And yahoo

In an email to the Canadian Press, a spokesperson for Transport Minister Chrystia Freeland said that while the department is still assessing a few claims, Transport Canada’s investigation found the claims made by Tesla “were determined to legitimately represent cars sold before January 12.”
As it should be, we’re in an illegal trade war and he had his part to play in things.
“Any refusal to recognize reality, for any reason whatever, has disastrous consequences. There are no evil thoughts except one: the refusal to think. Don’t ignore your own desires… Don’t sacrifice them. Examine their cause.”
Keep on hating, but try not to make shit up while you’re at it.
I’m actually surprised they haven’t done something like that.
We’re republishing Looking For Alaska, as it’s now a holy text that teaches our disciples about loss and grief.
Customers aren’t happy when the call in!
