  @vad3rt3sla Like Waze… It would also be nice if there is traffic to know the reason: car crash, construction, etc…

  @Flighty @ALewin Would be cool if it is like Waze, were we can report ourselves the wait times or slow lines

  𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒄𝒂𝒏'𝒕 𝒑𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑱-𝑨𝑰-𝑴 𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒋-𝑨𝑰-𝒓. 𝑾𝒆 𝒇𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑨𝑰 𝒎𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒔; 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒘𝒂𝒚 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉 Big Tech is dropping billions like it's nothing. AI models are accelerating weekly ... from LLMs to AI agents to full orchestras of them running directly on our phones and desktops. Chatbots everywhere. Humanoids on the horizon. The world feels like it's spinning faster than anyone can track. Drones are no longer science fiction; they're reshaping warfare in real time, from Ukraine to the Gulf, amplifying chaos as conflicts escalate with tools we barely understand yet feel powerless to slow. Societal distrust is deepening. People fear massive job losses, bleak prospects for new graduates, and mounting risks around privacy and safety. Many believe governments are hopelessly behind and regulators simply cannot move at the speed of the technology they're supposed to govern. On this, they're not wrong. But here's the truth: AI is already everywhere ... we spread it around, ourselves. Every tap and swipe has been training it for years. Auto-correct, Grammarly, Amazon purchases, tap-to-pay, social feeds, Waze, Netflix — the list is longer than most of us care to admit. We've flooded social media with graduation photos, videos of family vacays, and parents' obituaries; freely, eagerly, in real time. We recycled passwords across hundreds of accounts and clicked "agree" without reading a word. Identity theft and privacy violations? We continue to feed this machine through digital non-hygiene akin to the plague. It's already a buffet for AI-enabled fraudsters that we've served up. Corporations built platforms we loved: convenient, free, endlessly scrolling, and we accepted the trade-off with eyes at least half open. The business model was never hidden. We just chose not to think too hard about it. We spread the J-AI-M ourselves, every tap and swipe, 7-24-365 for years. The workforce consequences are no longer hypothetical. Copywriters, paralegals, customer service agents, and new grads are feeling the ground shift. The economic upside of AI is real, but it's flowing overwhelmingly to shareholders, not displaced workers. We need retraining pipelines, and we needed them yesterday. The promise is equally real! AI is transforming healthcare, will accelerate clean energy, 10X our climate change fight, and take us to other planets. The j-AI-r is open; what's inside is not all bad. There is more real hope than ridiculous hype. Do we push for algorithmic transparency laws? Demand digital literacy in schools and workplaces, not just how to use AI, but how to think critically about it? Support liability frameworks that hold developers accountable for measurable harm? Insist that workforce transition funding be tied to the companies generating billions from automation? Yes, no, what else? We made this J-AI-M. We spread it everywhere. We must be honest enough about our own roles to navigate what comes next ... wisely. 🤔 Of interest @lexfridman @garymarcus @LuizaJarovsky?

  @wholemars Fix the bloody navigation. Use a reliable mapping service with local editors who fix problems quickly -- aka Waze.

  @jerry_peep @LimChronicle The problem is not using Waze. The problem is reckless driving

  @DeoWatti @krisdyer_1 @marisekjg If I'd known how nasty it was, I'd have passed Anderson side. Atp, it looked like the usual after school Shoppes of Maraval shenanigans. Is only when I was stuck in traffic heading to Champs Elysees and Waze told me Morne Coco would be quicker that I realised I was in trouble.

  Ever cried on the road? Well, 01.00am, I am in Abu Dhabi, both Waze & Google Maps are not working. The signage is blacked out. 20 mins of frustration, driving & not knowing where you are going. I just started crying. Wanted to drive back to Dubai but had left something at the hotel. Pulled over to order a taxi to guide me but couldn’t even pin to my location. Na ni highways. Hakuna maduka to ask

  @RichardWellings Get Waze like me and just slow down for the cameras and police radars. Never any points. 👍

  @SysopRon @MattWallaceTech My issue isn't the way fsd drives it's that all tesla navigation has problems and isn't not as good as waze. I'd have the same issue with uber driver app nav

  @waze It's already updated the last version. So many experienced the same. When will you fix this.

  @waze please respond or acknowledge that the widespread CarPlay issue is being worked on?

• 
  The Sentient Dog Group (@e_considine) reported 34 minutes ago

  @The_Suburbanist I would say the obvious problem with your original idea is coordination. How do you coordinate 'paying people' not to drive into an area to limit specific traffic jams? If Waze offered that I suspect some people would try to make money by driving into rush hour traffic.

  Waze for airports could be cool if it doesn’t exist already. User reported tsa line backups, gate changes etc, baggage claim issues

  @nursedanakay Surely it cannot be beyond the wit of man to map where they are. Certainly telematics should be telling the car something's not right in the same place every day. I have a similar issue on my route and @waze. 9 speed humps which variously appear and disappear .

  @BoBbyPleWniaK FSD needs to know to slow down to speed limit when it sees a cop. It should also speak to other Teslas and navigation should know where cops are like waze

  Dan Gingerich (@dangitman50) reported 43 minutes ago

  @DLCampanile That's why I use Waze. I've never been done wrong by Waze, and twice screwed myself over when I didn't get off a highway when Waze told me to. (Both cases, there was a crash ahead I didn't know about, and Waze had a way around it.)

  @waze If you look at the screen shots, you see the glitch. Just fix it

  Salina Mendoza (@inababi) reported 48 minutes ago

  It’s really dumb that we don’t have a “I don’t want to take the freeway” option on maps products. This is needed @waze @googlemaps Constantly getting the dumbest routes wasting time and actively putting me in MORE traffic. This algo is broken.

  @Angelinahhhhhh I will not be working on this part of my personality. In fact I need to sharpen my level of judgment for people who accept invites to that podcast. WTF was the fave thinking? Waze wangibora uNono 🙄

  Why is there no Waze for #golf courses. Every weekend someone drives out to a course that has punched greens or patchy fairways and finds out when they get there. That information exists. Other golfers who played there that morning know it. It just goes nowhere. TurfTracker is the app that changes that. Crowdsourced conditions, one tap to report when you arrive, rewards for contributing. Know the condition before you commit to the round. This is the iOS concept I have been working on.

  @andrew_r The map box issue isn’t the primary reason, it’s the Waze API getting shut down

  @MusingsofAwe What can I use as an alternative to Google Maps? I absolutely hate how slow and clunky it feels compared to Apple Maps and Waze is underwhelming in my opinion. I've been using Google Wallet for a month now and love it.

  @htsfhickey Fred - real life example…google maps is actually now really bad at optimizing routes. Really bad…switched to waze which is also owned by google as you know but still seems to be working fine
