"In what ways is Madame Bovary a realistic novel?"

I just asked my phone that. It cheated and looked up the answer which it read to me, before cutting off mid-sentence.

Now in the real world you could argue looking up the answer to something you don't know is the intelligent response to such a question!

What standards should we use for a driving AI?

Must it never make a mistake?

How about ten times safer than the average human?

What about 10% safer than the average human?

What about 10% safer than the average 80 year old driver?

I'm not sure I would go for the last option but the penultimate one looks a good enough starting point as the safety level would only rise with time. Instead we seem to be fixated on total safety.

Call me 'old-fashioned' but I don't really want to participate in this futuristic world you have described.

Reads utterly boring , like being the Mekon, sitting on that flying saucer thing it used to move around on.

Nope, 1964 ish was nirvana, downhill ever since.

I tend to agree. The modern world that everyone in power seems to be striving for, seems a boring, clinical place.
