TranscriptExplain it to me like I’m 80

Mom: What’s with these AIs escaping and hacking people? That sounds scary.

Me: You park your car at the top of a hill. You leave a note on the dashboard that says “please be good” and then you pull the parking brake. The car careens down the hill, smashes everything up, and you put out a press release saying “My car ignored my instructions! It hallucinated! It went rogue!” Your insurance company not only believes you, but invests a hundred million dollars in your company.

Mom: Jesus Fucking Christ

I have an old truck with 4 pedals and tab that you pull to release the parking "brake".

    I actually do too, which I had forgotten about when I wrote the previous rant. Whoops!

    (I think it's because of the front bench seat... the same model truck with bucket seats would have a lever on the middle of the floor.)
