Do you if there has been any work how lasers affect other animals and insects?
Am I being catastrophically pessimistic to think that in addition to swatting insects as it moves forward, the cars lidar is blinding insects in a several hundred meter path ?
I’m very optimistic about automated cars being better than most humans but wonder about side effects.
- fragmede 9mo agoIf we have automated anti-mosquito vehicles just roaming around, the world would be a better place. There might be some second order effects from removing mosquitoes that we haven't predicted, but fuck mosquitoes.
- dash2 9mo agoUnfortunately not all insects are mosquitoes, and one reason we have many fewer birds in (e.g.) the UK than when I was young, is the decline of insect life.
