The Google futurist talks nanobots and avatars, deepfakes and elections – and why he is so optimistic about a future where we merge with computers
You're viewing part of a thread.
I thought your whole thing was dividing these into half points based on the components of the statement.
You want it you got it, though.
Whatever gets you giggly.
But there's no half. Road sensors existed before 1999 so that's not a prediction and therefore a fail. Self driving on the highway didn't exist in 2009 and is therefore a fail. Both fails, 0 points.
You said the statement was incorrect, but with sheet road signs, that prediction is obviously correct.
Sorry, can't help you squeak out of this one.
What specific smart road device that was new between 1999 and 2009 are you referring to?
Because there were all sorts of smart road sensors in use the 1990's. In 1994 Palo Alto, the intersections had sensors so lights instantly turned green for you if you were the only person at the intersection. The on ramps to highways had smart sensors controlling lights to control merging traffic.
Whichever one you find comforting.

Aww, well that's obviously not true even by your own list.
I can't give you a pass there.
That's not a rebuttal.
Fail.
