Yet another reason to despise AI. Animals deserve to be safe too. We've already taken so much from them as it is.
Ai has a proven track record of causing less accidents, and killing far fewer animals per km traveled than the average driver.
92% fewer accidents involving animals than the average human.
Ai doesn't drink, get distracted, or smoke meth like the ml mods.
here you dropped this
your figures (though I doubt them) don't include the skew of driver vs driverless vehicles. of course driverless cars are 92% less likely to have an accident involving animals. that's because driverless cars account for less than 1% of the entire vehicle population.
but it does randomly hallucinate.
The vote question would be better suited for the admin team and not mods, as we are just over this community.
Too many people being nasty in this thread, so we've removed the negative comments for rule 3.
