Hellz no. II can't even stand sitting at a faulty traffic light, let alone have some dumbass machine following a prescribed path. Call me crazy, but as dumb as other drivers are, they can't be hacked. I'd rather deal with them.
Big whoop. I learned in middle school that humans are terrible, and I haven't tried to wipe them out. (yet)

I heartily agree, as dumb as other people are, I'd prefer actual human drivers. I can't even stand riding in a car being driven by someone else, much less one that drives on its own.

As if it wasn't hard enough to get a job now....

Dang robots, how dare you!

Who? How? And why?

Did you tick someone with connections off?

I do not know, but the whole thing gives me a weird feeling. Its not just all at once, its that every thing has been a piece of paper (and one phone call) I received within two hours, the person that delivered the note from the HOA (I read the rules by the way, commercial production is specifically prohibited. Not a word about tools) taped it to the door and bolted, and Jacky wouldn't talk about it on the phone. . . Jacky isn't a paranoid guy.

Lottery? Or application process.
Lottery is only good for taking money from the poor. So application.

Not the "mega bucks" type of Lottery, using its secondary definition.

• a process or thing whose success or outcome is governed by chance.

Much like the 1948 story "The Lottery"   or  modern example "The Hunger Games"     Names drawn from a lot.

As I said....SELECTION. I would say natural selection, but she works too slowly, and often forgets to take her meds. So I'm not confident leaving a culling in her hands. And lotteries and applications have to be processed by people, who, as previously stated, are terrible and not to be trusted. They made a whole Netflix (or some other service) series about it. Culling through standardized testing; if you weren't smart enough to be of value to society, you were....."removed" from society. But per usual, those in charge corrupted what should have been a simple process.

Yup. People in general are terrible. It's nice to see someone else say it for once. Obviously there are exceptions, but in general humans are a disgusting failed species.

Not a failure at all. Quite a successful species and will remain the dominant species until we create a better one. We're only about 12 years out on that, so I suggest enjoying it while it lasts.

It is my experience that an inferior being cannot create a superior one. Inherent flaws are generally passed from one generation to the next. The only way to correct these flaws is by education. Failure to educate results in the continued propagation of the inherent flaws. And the viscious cycle starts aaaaaalllllll over again.

I don't really have anything to add other than I fully agree. Well said.

We don't have to create something superior to humans. How would that even be measured? We just have to create something that can replace us. Something we are easily capable of doing.

That is a terrifyingly true statement.

People are terrible because we suffer from collective stupidity. The IQ of any group over 10 is the IQ of the lowest divided by the number of people in the group. If you add alcohol you must square the number of people before dividing.

well.  The company I usr to order my collectibles from just went full R#*&!#.   Some preorders require a non refundable deposit.  Three of those pre-orders I no longer wanted and was willing to bite the deposit cost.  But you can't just cancel them like normal, you have to contact customer service.  Their hours are when I am at work so I emailed them.  Without asking me WHICH preorders I wanted canceled they cancled ALL my preorders that needed a deposit....

It's really sounding like it, isn't it? I'm a bit worried.
