This was exceptionally helpful and really appreciated. There were so many excellent points it’s hard to choose just one but I loved this point about people with lived experiences creating the tools driving AI. We need purpose and partnership versus stochastic parrots. Thanks!

Cruise autonomous vehicle driving behavior feedback
By
–
2/4 But I am still riding to inform followers and help @Cruise get better. TONIGHT! On app, requested and got ride in 2 mins with "French fry". Overly aggressive fast pull in to pick up–better than earlier rides where it was too afraid of stopping, but scarily fierce in pull in.

Cruise autonomous vehicle traffic light behavior at Sacramento and Fillmore
By
–
Only traffic light of ride, half a block in. @Cruise please see internal video of French fry at 9:16 turning right on Sacramento from heading south on Fillmore. I noticed it did not attempt a right on red. Waited for green. Then pedestrians on Fillmore were crossing and blocking.

Waited for first batch, then turned right quite aggressively as a south bound pedestrian started across the road. He HAD TO JUMP BACKWARDS TO AVOID BEING HIT. Bad @Cruise
. Rest of ride uneventful. -
Cruise autonomous vehicle freezes during SF crash with paying passenger
By

1/4 Psst. Secret. My family tried to ban me from riding with @Cruise after seeing video of last Thursday's SF crash when Cruise with paying passenger inside froze in the path of an emergency vehicle rather than doing anything to get out of the way. Passenger ended in hospital.
