  • This is unrealistic, dead man switches has been a common part of trains and trams since the 1930s or so, it is therefore highly improbable that any tram operating would lack that critical piece of safety equipment.

    Thus it is ridiculous to assume that the tram would continue on after the driver has been killed.

    I refuse to participate further with this preposterous charade.



  • I’d much rather have a more powerful generic CPU than a less powerful generic CPU with an added NPU.

    There are very few people who would benefit from an added NPU, ok I hear you say what about local AI?

    Ok, what about it?

    Would you trust a commercial local AI tool to not be sharing data?

    Would your grandmother be able to install an open source AI tool?

    What about having enough RAM for the AI tool to run?

    Look at the average computer user, if you are on lemmy, chances are very high that you are far more advanced than the average computer user.

    I am talking about those users who don’t run Adblocker, don’t notice the YT ad skip button and who in the past would have installed a minimum of of five toolbars in IE, yet wouldn’t have noticed the reduced view of the actual page.

    These people are closer to the average users than any of us.

    Why do they need local AI?
