Think what kind of clapping seal would believe she's gonna fix things

Kamala Harris is a two-time loser. Who would vote for her?

Fascists versus "we didn't know we were fascists"

They are beholden to their neoliberal donors, who want manufacturing offshored. Trump's role is to give his base exactl what they want and watch it fail spectacularly

Exactly this!

They're pretending it's AI, or cryptocurrency, but neither has any use case that anybody wants or needs aside from money laundering and homework cheating

Well sure.

But when the lowest-hanging fruit is all harvested, reaching for the next available thing requires investment and so quarterly profits start dropping. Once the investments have been paid for, profits will never come back to where they were previously so it's always diminishing returns

Now you're catching on!

Because anything that isn't easiest isn't profitable

I'm not surprised it's bad but it's an actual fun use for AI

I live in East Asia, where public transport is given major funding and has high ridership. There is no law requiring people to move their cars for an ambulance and people just don't bother. Ambulances routinely get stuck in traffic.

Not to defend our shitty car-centric society but most places in the US aren't so bad. I would guess that New York in particular presents more challenges for smooth ambulance traffic than almost anywhere else in the country due to its high traffic density and relatively narrow roads and streets. People likely want to move and can't. Excluding bicycle issues, Americans are pretty good about observing traffic laws and knowing when to give way. (but yes, to a German person, American drivers probably seem like troglodytes)
