Does someone have a holistic impression of what self-driving cars are still struggling with?

Existentialism.

Many more American citizens were wrongly consigned to the DMF after Elon Musk’s DOGE goons bullied their way onto the SSA’s databases and mistakenly decided that “countless” people listed as 120 years old and older were receiving benefits.

“[DOGE staffers] went into the system and they killed off people,” Glasgow told the Daily Beast. “About 4 million people, they marked them as dead. But they’re not sure if those people were supposed to be marked as dead, so they’re sending us an email saying, ‘If these people come into the office with their identification, you can reinstate them.’”

I'm confused. There's no way there are 4 million Americans over 120 years old.

DOGE and Musk don't understand placeholder birthdays, or that you can get default date for a null entry. So everything must be fraud because the system is always accurate, just like AI, right?

Also this had some interesting bits of info in it: https://archive.is/2025.04.24-13464...n-wwe-style-blow-up-between-musk-and-bessent/
Like at the very end it mentions that Musk can only work 130 days in the year as a "government employee"

I am fairly sure there are none.

There's been only one verified case of someone living past 120 and she was French and died in 1997. The oldest person CURRENTLY alive is a Brazilian woman at 116.
