a fun thing you learn about reading NTSB crash reports is that there are many fatal plane crashes caused by pilots who became so automation-reliant that they forgot how to actually, like, fly the plane

@atax1a yeah. a ton of them are over confident private pilots who rely on autopilot during IFR conditions... i remember a story or two about planes going down because ap disengaged and the pilot spent the entire time trying to get it working again bc they couldnt fly the plane without

@puppygirlhornypost2 @atax1a this is also the biggest problem i have with self driving cars and ADAS.

Level 2 automation is fundamentally unsafe from a human factors perspective

@azonenberg @puppygirlhornypost2 yes and it drives us batshit to watch all these programmers suddenly start bootlicking sam altman's text extruder because it's personally convenient for them to no longer have to write shell scripts or somesuch, externalities and safety be damned
