@johannab @ai6yr @kajord @Rycaut I just do not understand the need to remove all manual controls. HUGE aircraft, such as the Boeing 777 and the Airbus 340 and many others, are programmed to fly from runway to runway, including takeoff and landing. The hard- and soft-ware must pass extreme testing before being used in live situations. Yet, the cockpit designers didn't remove all the manual controls. They understand that not every flight goes smoothly. While landing these behemoths manually is difficult, the pilot and co-pilot are highly trained to do exactly that.

The hubris of these techbros thinking their "AI", that has repeatedly FAILED simple testing, let alone any rigorous testing, is up to self-driving at all is incredible. And taking away the controls for manual driving is the epitome of stupidity.... and these guys are designing cars?

@ai6yr @kajord @Rycaut

I think any innovative genius who thinks they can completely redesign an entire human-tech interface like a car cockpit should first have to prove themselves by getting the entire world to adopt a new non-qwerty keyboard within two fiscal years and demonstrate through replicable peer-reviewed research that typographical errors no longer happen so they can safely remove the backspacer.

Then I'll listen to their ideas about door handles or signal levers or brake pedals.

"HoW dO We IMprOVe EdUcaTIoN??"

People act like it's a big mystery but it's not?

1. Better educated teachers.
2. More experienced teachers. (as in a ratio to new teachers)
3. Limit class size to 20 students aim for an average of 14.
4. Equip schools with sufficient materials eg: buildings that are safe and functional, internet that works, computers for students, you know the materials.

Most "education innovations" are trying to skip this stuff and use something else instead to save money.
