It sounds more like you dont know how to run a business (or a big one, at least).
Kind of ironic given your statements in the topic so far.

Especially if you were struggling to keep it going or make enough.
Please explain to me, with everything you know about the nature of my business, its location, its clientele, its revenue, its expenses, and my practices in running it, exactly what upgrades I should have made but didn't. Make sure you be specific - after all, you made the claim that I don't know what I'm doing, so I'm sure you've already worked all this out.

But big businesses should always be thinking in the long run. And they usually have the money to do just that
And, not coincidentally, they're the ones you pretty much always see self-checkout lanes at.

Maybe some people could make one. But I dont think all the parts are all there, either.
Of course all the parts are all there - do you think a wizard conjures self-checkout lines out of existence?

Parts exist for anyone who feels like ordering them.

All kinds of crazy accidents happen all the time. They have tons of YouTube videos of them...
Oh, there's a Youtube video of this bizarre scenario you can't even describe where a bunch of AI have a spontaneous malfunction that humans wouldn't have or something? Well, that makes it easy! Just post the video of the AI mass car crash and you'll have proved your point.

And I believe its possible that a corporation has invented it. And that corporation would also destroy the world. And it could happen. I have no proof that it hasnt.
You have no proof that the corporation hasn't destroyed the world?

I do - go look out the window right now and you will notice that the world is still there, in an undestroyed state.

But I can say that youre basically saying that self-driving cars cant have accidents if you dont like how they can happen. So, I guess youre trying to say they are perfect.
When did I say that self-driving cars are perfect or cannot have accidents?

I simply said that the specific type of weird malfunction you can't even articulate but that you've convinced yourself is some dire threat is based entirely on your own fantasies rather than reality. Self-driving cars can get into normal accidents and I've never denied that; they just do so a lot less often than the average human, because they are better drivers.
