NO, because the coral reef grows up to 6 cm per year. It grows upwards toward the surface. The reef is constantly growing unless damaged. It breaks down into chunks and sand from fish that chew it and from the weather. This debris is tossed onto the surface of the island. Coral reefs do not sink below the waves.

When there's a drought, climate change. When there's too much water, climate change. When the ice caps are melting, climate change. When there are more ice caps than ever recorded, climate change.

In this case the accident would be human related. I haven't seen anything really credible about a self driving car accident. Lots of people are misusing Teslas auto pilot in city streets, which is not its intended purpose. Also human drivers have been involved in every self driving car crash.. So the data doesn't exist.

Actual quote: "“Google is 5,000 times better than Uber at autonomous driving. " Headline skews to the negative. Misleading headline is misleading. edit: The number "5,000" appears twice in this article. Once in the misappropriated headline, once in the direct quote above.

> I guess they're not really self driving if you have to control it from Time to time. That's the whole point here. No one claims that they are self-driving.

Would you be laughing so much if he ran over another person instead of killing himself? Tesla made their warnings easy to ignore and Musk, with his comments about the car, encouraged people to think of the car as self-driving. I'm glad Tesla has revised their software since, because if your car can't actually self-drive it shouldn't be doing so for all but 9 seconds of a 30 minute period. Not e…

What was google going to do? Fix the algorithms publicly and let it seem like a racist AI was running as it retrained itself? In these hypersensitive times it would have been a PR nightmare for google.

Killer robots don’t kill people, they’re just a tool. What we should really be doing is more mental health for people who build killer robots (we don’t want to pay for it though)

Fucking AI... the problem with our race is thinking we can control everything, that just because we make it that it will do everything we want it too. Just like how we think we can control the weather or other shit. We think we are better than we are and it is the Hubris that will destroy our race, unless we do something about it now. AI means it can learn, if it can learn it will evolve itself …

People at the top of tech (/knowledge/know-how) monopolies telling us how AI will hurt "all of us", is really cute. First thing AI will do is make difficult things easy. Then it might wipe out humanity. But the making difficult things easy part is basically a given. So even if it doesn't wipe out humanity, the advantage tech companies found themselves on will be gone. It's a lose/lose situation…

Uh... Thats kinda like saying "I killed your dog but here are a bunch of dying birds." #netgain

Honestly. This can be solved with something as simple as an individual email, and a simple google search. ​ All you have to do is google who is in charge at said company. Then after they send you a privacy policy or something. Just email that person in charge the following. ​ "I read your privacy policy and that all sounds good. But just know that if you leak or sell…

The fact remains that if a guy gives $100,000 to a preserve to hunt an animal that is going to be culled by the preserve anyway, those dollars have helped those animals far more than the nasty tweets people send him from their couch.

Al Gore: climate change is real Leo: we need to go deeper... (and actually do something about it)

Better that eating the steak and proceed to expand meat consumption. Not ideal but at least is some action against none.

I sure am glad all these rich as fuck people are taking precious time out of their days exploiting people and the environment for profit to try give back! Seriously though, I’m alright with DiCaprio, but all these billionaires whose wealth accumulation is inherently destructive to both environment and society can get tae fuck with their virtue signalling, conscious assuaging, guilt avoiding phil…

Facial recognition is worse than a newborn baby at identifying faces. IMO, it would take full on Artificial Intelligence for facial recognition to work

Ahhh living in an age where every little weather anomaly is a climate emergency. You people are beyond retarded

That's pretty much what climate science is. The same science that told you margarine was better for you and that dietary cholesterol caused heart disease. Best hypothesis science isnt proven sorry. Climate science is garbage.

You using pedal-power to power that PC? Most of us, in every first-world Country, regardless of generation, have a big carbon footprint.
