  1. If the replies convince me that the second law of thermodynamics is an inescapible part of physics, I'll stop posting my comment essays opposing this law. 

    As long as the comments on ambient thermal free energy stand, people should read information foreshadowing that technology involving electricity paired in equal measure with refrigeration may suddenly emerge for everyone anywhere anytime with a wide range of capabilites.

  2. Um, how do u eject from a flying car if there is a mechanical failure at 5,000 feet? Also, what happens to the pedestrians below when the crap flying cars (Made in China) start dropping out of the sky. Call Morgan & Morgan….

  3. CES 2020, LG presented the "Connected Car" concept, which is an AI-enhanced, level 2 semi-autonomous car that resembles a loungeroom, that focuses on comfort and a seamless experience from home to car. The Automotive aspect in LG’s ThinQ ecosystem, built with LG's webOS Auto, provides a "comfortable" in-car experience, user-friendly, adaptable and customisable. LiDAR (Light Detection & Ranging), Radar, Ultrasonic, Infrared, Accelerometers and Gyroscopes and Cameras with audio, provide a safety system that enhances driver assistance, providing level 2 autonomy. Offering significant driver assistance, but unlike advanced Level 3 and Level 4 autonomy, it has several limitations that stand out.

    1. Decision-making capabilities are limited to predefined plans. Unable to handle unexpected events or make complex judgments, as human drivers do (100% human engagement is required).

    2. The driver must remain ready to take control, at any moment. The system manages events, with likeliness of events and forecasts an estimation model based on roll of dice, levels of confidence (ML prediction), it cannot operate independently, yet it can get pretty close to it and in an optimal case, might be imperceptible from a system that's not fully autonomous.

    3. Level 2 struggles with complex scenarios, (construction zones, unmarked roads, changed or unexpected traffic). Demands exact road markings and a predictable environment, they can cut out stop being responsive when the model is overloaded, and require instant human intervention to continue driving, while the car has a moment.

    4. Adverse weather conditions (heavy rain, snow, or fog) impairs sensor function and reduces its effectiveness. Sensor's data is valuable, but limited in range and accuracy. LiDAR and radar can be affected by environmental factors, and cameras can struggle in low-light or poor weather. Satellite GPS updates, can be added to further enhance the system, it is not provided as standard.

    Level 2 autonomy regulations require drivers maintain control of vehicles, limiting practical use, not ruling it out. NHTSA, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration updated reporting requirements for autonomous vehicle (AV) crashes, makes it easier to report and access crash data through web systems. 25 states and the District of Columbia added new AV regulations in the first half of 2023. All states continue developing laws for AVs. California and Texas have proposed new regulations, fully embracing AV technology remains hesitant.

    The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) increased funding for AV development through the "Strengthening Mobility and Revolutionizing Transportation" (SMART) Grant, $94 million allocated to improve transportation technology and systems, with funds provided expressly for Connected Vehicles in IoT (Autonomous Vehicles, AVs).

    Germany established a legal framework in July 2021, defining the world’s first law on automated driving (amendment to Road Traffic Act / StVG – Straßenverkehrsgesetz), allowing L4 autonomous vehicles operate in public traffic, in designated areas, providing shuttle services and automated parking. This framework is part of broader efforts of integrating AVs for public transport, started in 2017, aimed at seeing Germany the world leader of cV-ioT policy and implementation. Legal frameworks increasingly focus on privacy and cybersecurity & data policies in AVs, protecting users and defining responsible usage.

  4. 4:50 Michał Boni, Polish member of EP
    Simple minds don't require much to convince them to do wrong. Especially politicians.
    There have been no changes in the health service in Poland for 40 years because such old, selfish and corrupt people worry about what will happen tomorrow, not in 10 years.
    And 9G will not help.

  5. In the long run, if one is to assess the problems associated with a bridge, a tunnel, or a tube, well I feel the tube covers all the most complete forms of major catastrophes.

  6. Amazing quality, material. Many thanks! A little question if I may, how would another specie in space react, such as a bird of flight with an above average higher IQ? A bird of flight, surrounded with an absence of gravity..! Qh YEA. . !

  7. How about making MICRO-ROBOTICS to help alleviate the terrible unseen problems, from humans, & the naked eye, of ever decreasing, subterranean, dwelling termites. Many earth dwelling benefits will spin off for our & everyones planet EARTH. . !

  8. Since the industrial revolution, the progress of technological advances has been achieved at the expense of society and populations, but then the added value generated is diverted into the pockets of the plutocrats who govern the "democratic" countries of the West, through the connections of multinationals that are (almost all, or all) of these plutocrats who are its largest shareholders with the universities and scientific institutes (which are maintained with the financial effort of the populations and where research and development of these technological advances are carried out) this new scientific knowledge is captured and maintained as if it were a monopoly of these multinationals. And the added value generated by these technological advances, instead of being shared by society as a whole, is pocketed by 15 or twenty plutocrats, who no one knows who they are and who are the biggest "clients" of Blackrock and Vanguard – or rather , their owners.

    And so they deceive the population, who are now informed that the social benefits they previously had will disappear, because there is no money to maintain them and they will have to increase the retirement age. The moral sense inherent in human beings seems to have disappeared completely.

  9. I'm amazed by the depth of this content. A book with similar substance opened up new realms of thought. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint

  10. How about a Long Term Treaty of Non Destructive Directives , Especially here On earth andn untill We Get It together = It Will Not Evolve , Those Standing Now PURPOSELY Blocking it = Really Needs To Step Aside Once and for ALL !
    AAnd = NO = Todays Thoughts On direction can NO LONGER EXIST ! Dont ask Why just Know I Cannot continue , and no , removal of womens right and trying to tell another what they caan or can nopt do to ones s elf is also not allowed , YOU Do not get to determine the directionn one chooses in their life , that is up to the individual = STILL and Always will Be No matter what you want to believe = you must let go of Control and controlling motives , one cannot be the director nor can it be the final say , the Peoople As A MASS Leaving NONE OUT = NOT ONE !!! NOT ONE = Yes Even Children and Oil Must go , its a nuisance over all , anything we can do with oil , we can develope capturable synthertics that do the saame with higher resitance to heat and cold very easily , but ALL of THIS Needs to Be Off Planet and Very Limited utility On earrth Cleaning outr atmopshere over time to fully natural origins eliviating the need for extreme anti bacterials once again and so on , whilst also having majo disaster clean up crews and life saaving instead of death squads . and to sa i am inaccurate is saying we dont want your ideas due to ts nopt how this selecct privaate small grooup gets to say happens and if you doonnt like that die , is exactly what needs to be removed

  11. yea 6 months while a private firms determines if its viable while being raan by private firms withb vaast ricches now that could stand to loose all of its major revenue now will Balk against loosing its revenue and ban such anything that comes against its standing , no thanks

  12. It is very interesting all the technology that we can find now and that helps us improve life, even more and better advances can be discovered, but for that they must maintain a balance so as not to harm the environment and so that it is not used for a harmful purpose for humanity

  13. This is government oversight disguised as " Advanced technologies" they get to know everything about you and you know even less how they operate when they switch to robots. I can see what the innovators are REALLY doing from 10 miles away. We fall for this tech, we fall as a human race! Mark my words!!!!

  14. Then 1 EMP and your entire economy is reset! Take 5 to 10 years to even build back again! Dumb humans are just dumb self cenrtered creatures that will eventually lead to their own demise

  15. I'm exhausted of revolutionary technology. When will the revolution be over? I feel like I'm stuck on a wheel that will never stop turning. If I'm constantly having to adapt to new technology what's the point in whatever it's trying to help. Turns out, my brain and my hands are a revolutionary technology. So is rest and sleep.

  16. What a disgraceful nightmare…. Watching @05:03 some old "commission" member talking like he is important and will "grant" government money to your idea. What a dystopian nightmare. "could you imagine" that Europe has this unelected "commission" that plays a role in your life like that. Total communism has swallowed Europe and people go along with it instead of having a French type Revolution and offing their heads. An entire ugly Cast System of unelected "Commission" government types with lifetime pensions who interfere in the natural flow of progress. Seriously Europe.. You are more communist than China but you don't know it.

  17. @Spark Thank you for the informative video.

    However: This video suffers of the disease of many youtube videos: superfluous and annoying background music. It's tiring attending to the narration over the background music, masking the topic of the video and mostly adding nothing to the content. Narration or music is fine but one on top of the other is distracting.

    (… and sometimes difficult to understand for many people, as 80% of all youtube users – such as me – are not native English speakers.)

  18. A shout-out here for those two Germans (a few minutes in) speaking VERY good English. The only faults are trivial, I think it was "has" or "had" isn't gramatically incorrect half the time. To criticise something so minor, well that's a great compliment; also the younger generation having that confidence (FFS, "younger generation"-im 30 this year)
