    This guy sounds like someone who has been told how smart he is a few too many times in elementary school.

    Turns out, if you don’t sacrifice cities on the car altar and plan for quality if life instead, children can in fact play on the streets. The Netherlands show it.

    You know, he’s right - we should start investing in mass transit so we don’t need the cars, and kids can play in the street again.

    Sounds like he’s saying he values cars more than children. I mean, yeah, both can be noisy and annoying, but only one will grow up to pay tax.

      To be fair, he was born in Taiwan, just 20 or so years after the ROC retreated from mainland China.

      He then lived in the city of Tainan and later in Thailand.

      Then, also consider what he may have ment by “when car came along”, I would read it less litteral and more like “when mass car ownership came along”.

      One or two cars in the area per day won’t prevent anyone from playing in the streets, but when that increases to hundreds per day, that changes things.

      Do not use their services. You are being used as training data.

      AI companies are hemorrhaging money all by themselves, don’t give them a penny and don’t give them your speech.

    肏你祖宗十八代!

    There’s a huge difference between the Gutenberg press and this crapola reasoning; that printer advanced knowledge. Fuckin AI might as well reverse all that was learned by causing most people to forego learning and become LAZY.

    I’d rather burn down your headquarters than use your shitty, unreliable, insane environment killer.

    But honestly, this guy is an asshole. He doesn’t seem to care about selling this to people. In fact, he’s practically openly hostile to people. He’s always talking to and selling to companies and government (America, mostly?)

    It’s the most “bubble” fucking thing I’ve ever seen.

      In the middle of a highway, if it’s possible. And don’t wear any hi-vis, your leather jacket is so cool, you should keep it on.

    Cars and car-first infrastructure have been massively bad ecologically, socially, and environmentally.
