Interesting article and research about the use of AI in coding. I use it every day and consider it quite helpful. But this result tells another story...

As much as I want to blame Wyze for this, it just shows an inherent flaw in the security of web connected devices. You can never be 100% safe.

"Waymo’s driverless cars were 6.7 times less likely than human drivers to be involved a crash resulting in an injury, or an 85 percent reduction over the human benchmark, and 2.3 times less likely to be in a police-reported crash, or a 57 percent reduction. That translates to an estimated 17 fewer injuries and 20 fewer police-reported crashes compared to if a human driver would have driven the same distance in the cities where Waymo operates."

Waymo has 7.1 million driverless miles — how does its driving compare to humans?

Waymo conducted the first analysis of its fully driverless vehicles to determine whether they’re safer than human drivers. The 7.1-million mile study found its cars performed better than humans in preventing injury-causing crashes.

@jeffjarvis I think the time to give tough love was years ago. This war would end like any other conflict between Israel and Hamas: Innocent people killed by Hamas, and then 10 times that by Israel. US will wait until Netanyahu's urge to kill Palestinians is saited and Gaza is destroyed, and only then asks him to stop murdering kids. A new generation of Palestinians grows up radicalized by the loss of their parents and siblings in a blind bombing and the cycle continues...
