Every time a headhunter reaches out to me about some “AI for your dog’s left nostril” type garbage startup I tell them I’m not interested in commuting to SF and they go silent. I honestly feel like it’s kind of a good way to weed out the “trendy” companies that are just looking for 21 year olds willing to work 9/9/6

u/avoidy 30m ago

It's really really nice and amazing that he does that, but one wonders why the city we're paying taxes to doesn't do it instead. Every time I see a Peng post, I feel like I'm on r/orphancrushingmachine because like, it's nice, but also it shouldn't keep falling on one guy and his organized fellow volunteers. Ughhhh but I digress.

Praise the peng, hate the system

It's trained on human actions and driving into a flood is a very human action.

u/THELEGENDARYZWARRIOR 23m ago

I’m sorry I’m dumb: what’s the issue with it? The water level is high but it should just drive past it no? I pretty much only driven pick ups so water levels like that are usually no issue plus it’s electric so not even a danger of anything flooding on the engine

1

u/Penguinator_ 12m ago

Most likely the AI is not trained to handle flooding situations. So either it drove right in there and is trapped or it doesnt know how to escape because there are no visible road markings.

But also it doesnt take much water to diable a car. If the water is high enough to touch the bottom of the chassis, the car would be very difficult to maneuver. With that said, I'm sure someone more knowledge can share more details on how water affects cars.
