So once again the employees should bring the data to replace them
I'm old. Was anyone else's reaction to wonder what Uber was doing for audio-video companies? The original title says "self-driving" and that's much more clear.
Sometimes AV is supposed to mean Anti Virus or Alternative Vote and that's really confusing because it really means Audio Visual. Anything else, no. I saw the title and thought it can't be AV, they must mean AI and made a typo.
Seems par for the course. Nintendo turned legions of Pokemon Go players into unpaid sensor grids for delivery robots.

The complete destruction of the human through exploitation and control, as seen in the article, is a major reason people are too unhappy to start families.
