Not making rules is the same as making it impossible to achieve them. Until there are rules, the robocabs are illegal and can be seized by local officials. That's a terrible environment in which to invest in them. -Crissa

What rules? How would they be eased? Lotsa missing details. Especially for an incoming administration that is talking about erasing the EV buildout. -Crissa

Nowhere did I say that. They have been in development. A puppet on an arm isn't a humanoid robot. ASIMO wasn't remote operated. You couldn't just have ASIMO mimic what a Human was doing. This isn't a thing that 'has been around for decades' it's something that's been not-quite-working for...

Why do you keep insisting this proves there was no AI or robotics progress involved? -Crissa

What's this? More articles that don't prove your point? -Crissa

Noted: Nowhere in the sentence did they say they were successful, nowhere did you show it being puppeted. Well, one can be ahead in the scoreboard but behind in the overall strategy. Waymo is having trouble scaling. Eventually they'll solve it. Tesla is having trouble getting their models...

So you don't understand how 'citations' work? You need not just to link to a document talking about how Asimo existed (and exists, and is much, much more limited than Teslabot, and was never to my knowledge used to telepresence beyond carrying around ipad)... Which line in the document? Why...

Then find us the line that shows people puppeting ASIMO remotely. Progress is progress. I don't know why it bothers you that you have to make it not all or nothing. -Crissa

I'm not buying it until it's shipping at a price that's reasonable. Why would I need to praise someone for doing stupid stuff? Humans do smart stuff and stupid stuff. We can even disagree on what the smart and stupid stuff is. We agree on the smart stuff being Cybertruck. That's as far as...

Nice. Your own citation proves you wrong. -Crissa

Well, Waymo probably could be dropped in, but the costs to make sure everything is working properly exceed addressable market. That's why Waymo has always been working on self-mapping cars - just like Tesla is doing. They're just not there yet. -Crissa

Humanoid robots controlled by Humans have not been 'around for decades'. By that matter, then AI controlled robots aren't exciting, either. I just don't get the insistence it's not progress. -Crissa

Since the default is 'discrimination is unethical and illegal' it does seem political to promote discrimination. -Crissa

They can't puppet/drive the vehicles directly, they can only answer questions from the vehicles or send service. Tho I'm guessing that's mostly how the Teslabots were operated, by making sure they're catching the right questions and not stepping on toes. -Crissa

Heck, even some of those at the studios were just a glorified watch party (see also Dirty Tesla's invite). -Crissa

In that, there's a Human making sure it doesn't screw up. Robots are just fancy electronic puppets. Why this upsets you - when that wasn't even possible a few years ago - is baffling. -Crissa

Subways bypass the streets, and are higher density (and lower maintenance) than these units. But we need all sorts of transportation. My Zero gets me there at 3¢ a mile... -Crissa

Mine is Jinro. Your friend hits harder, but mine is more transparent. And is going to come with bar food ^-^ Dumplings, rice balls, korean pancakes. -Crissa

The OP answered my question! -Crissa

Are they able to get charged while the door is closed? I understand how glow in the dark works, I'm just wondering if there's anything that would reach it while the door is closed (like the accent lighting) -Crissa
