the annual social cost of cancer and auto accidents are very roughly equivalent imagine a new cancer drug came out that reduced mortality by 90% across *every* cancer And the AMA aggressively lobbied against it because of its potential suppressive impact on hospital visits and surgeries... That is the unions wrt to autonomous robotaxis right now.

Waymo is so good at saving lives that if it were a new drug in trial, it would hit the bar for being unblinded and made immediately available to the control group for ethical reasons. @MorePerfectUS would prefer to keep killing pedestrians.

according to new @StanfordHAI #AIIndex2026, "[t]he U.S. has passed more AI-related laws since 2016 than any other G20 country," with state regulation driving the uptick. [from pg. 344 of the new report]

In 1977, two American boys discovered that a local ice‑cream chain offered free birthday sundaes by mail, so they invented a fictional child named “Robert Alan Peters” to keep collecting the yearly treat. They filled out the birthday club form, listed their real home address, and for years received coupons addressed to their imaginary creation. The prank was harmless fun, just kids gaming a promotional system for a few extra sundaes. But in 1984, everything changed when a letter arrived from the Selective Service System ordering “Robert Alan Peters” to register for the draft. The boys, now older, were stunned: their fake child had somehow entered a federal database. The incident exposed that the U.S. government had quietly obtained and used the ice‑cream chain’s mailing list without permission, sparking public debate about privacy, data‑sharing, and how easily personal information could be swept into government systems long before the digital age.
