    They still use air traffic controllers, which is a government paid job if I’m not mistaken. The government would also back them up if their private jet or heli encountered an emergency and had to land due to a failure with the aircraft. The government regulates when and how their private planes have to be inspected and ready to fly. The government provides the water that the employees that gas up and maintain the aircraft use, and the roads that get them there.

    So they may believe they don’t need the government, but it’s a big part of almost everything we do everywhere.

    I’m thinking they were hoping that people would jump on it so hard they would rely on AI to make decisions and tell them what to do, but Microsoft would hold the keys to what information the AI put out.

    Generally, though, when you force things down people’s throats and they don’t want it or want to use it, you’re in for a bad time. I personally go out of my way not to use AI; there are tons of articles and talks out there about how it stifles critical thinking and research. That, coupled with how early it is and how they tried to put it in EVERYTHING, put a bad taste in my mouth just like Y2K many moons ago.

    Similarly, in Battlefield 2, if you played Commander you could zoom in for a pretty good live feed of the battlefield so you could call out soldiers if one of your squads was in a fight. In addition to that you could do a full radar sweep of the full map that would put markers on enemy positions.

    Anytime I did the full sweep and saw one or two soldiers waaaay outside of any fight, I knew they were either another Commander or a camper. So I’d do what they call “Car-tillery”, and call a friendly jeep right on top of their heads. Bonus points if it was windy and you still got the angle right.

    It became such an issue that servers would specifically ban Car-tillery, and if you were caught you’d usually get kicked. Good times, good times
