Benjamin Ross @BenRossTransit@mastodon.social Waymo (aka Google) admits that it trains its robotaxis to break the law. When WaPo reporter finds robotaxis fail to stop for pedestrians in marked crosswalk 70% of the time, Waymo says it follows "social norms" rather than laws. Expert explains: When robotaxis obey law, they don't go fast enough to compete successfully with Uber, so Google execs ordered engineers to ignore laws. wapo.st/3ZZDifm Washington Post: On roads teeming with robotaxis, crossing the street can be harrowing by Geoffrey A.

Company execs everywhere are so enthusiastic about AI because they profit from the erasure of moral/legal responsibility that AI provides as a service.
Start sending CEOs to jail for the shit their "AI" does and we'll start to see responsible use (maybe).
(None of which erases the fact that most gen-AI is made of industrial theft and crimes to begin with)
