Thats why they said they optimize for effective output at the cost of higher token use. They didn’t say they are intending to have high token use, instead thet implied its a second order effect of seeking more effective output.
While working at Cruise, i built tech to measure the latency even though they just draw a path. Latency absolutely does matter, otherwise you’re drawing that path through a crowd of people. You admit yourself they still need to be responsible for collisions, which you cannot safely do if the latency exceeds the safe tolerance. It doesn’t matter whether you’re drawing a path or turning a Mario kart steering wheel if the information you’re acting upon is incorrect or outdated.
I recovered ~$250,000 under beverly song act (California lemon law). (My principal and interest back for multiple vehicles)
I repeatedly complained it was activating “emergency lane departure” while driving manually, even after disabling the setting. This had the effect of the vehicles swerving towards cross walks or walls.
Clearly a software issue but they played dumb and forced me to book service visits and refused to provide loaners.
Each time they returned the vehicle(s) with a short resolution of “expected characteristic”.
I read my purchase agreement, emailed them, and simply stated they are obliged to buy back my fleet given its a hazard to public safety. They obliged without discussion.
There were also other persistent issues with the vehicle beyond the software but i suspect the software put them into a double bind where if they “fix” it they create more liability via accidental disengagements.
This isn’t just a story about an AI logo, it’s a story about locals who feel the business they frequented was replaced by someone trying to make a quick buck.
And an owner who believes that means the locals want to “destroy” her business.
Im not choosing a side, but it doesn’t seem like they have a strong future with or without a logo. That’s just Santa Cruz culture, very aggro surfers.
Many of the surrounding restaurants are very immersed in local surf culture and put a great deal of resources and effort into their decor.
This is propaganda that appears to be intended to sway you towards “stretching the truth” about how bad the tool is, to your coworkers, by exploiting your fear of “being left behind” and desire to “be ai forward”
They had like 100 devs making 600k at one point. The issue is certainly not lack of talent. More like, they insist on forcing the vibe coding narrative. Some candidates are refusing interview requests accordingly.
Didnt the head of their dept at tesla crash his into a wall? He couldn’t react in time either.
I sold-back two vehicles under lemon law to them for FSD/autopilot nonsense, mine was activating the “emergency lane departure” and jerking the wheel even when driving manually (“lane departure” set to OFF) causing FSD to activate and jerk left when i as human am turning right normally with blinker on and dont want any FSD
Apparently they “secretly” turned that setting on even when it was off, for 30 seconds after certain disengagements. They did not show it in the ui at the time, and it happened during my daily routes for some reason.
They closed my service appointments with no resolution or explanation, so i did a formal lemon law request and they promptly refunded all my money. Around the same time they finally appeared to be updating the UI.
Not an attorney, but its a chat between a non attorney… and well, themselves. It seems no different than a client writing hand written notes. But if they hand wrote a note to… give to their attorney, that seems different (which is how you seem to frame it). I trust that the court articulated clearly, why the defendants “certain notes” were not privileged, however its not surprising that there is nuance. In fact, its no different than how only “certain emails” could be privileged. This also seems like a win for society, if there is some sort of pattern with ai helping with crimes.
