* Toyota; local news (I don't know if any of you have ever heard of a similar story ... extremely frustrating):

It is amazing that in the year 2017 we are slave to our car keys. Way of speech. There should be an accommodation (a quick solution) for any car's owner who lost his keys. I know what you are going to say; he should have a spare master key in the locked glove compartment, inside the locked car.
But what if he doesn't? ...Wait two months and pay $5,000? ...Plus the costs to return home without his car.

Our cars are computers, some are self-driving cars, and more of them are aiming towards the future.
Are we going to see remote controlled hackers driving our cars out of our driveways and pouf into the night!?

Sure, in the 50s, 60s and 70s cars were much simpler for the drivers. Today they are simpler for the tech thieves. Lol
The computerized world has many advantages, but it also has disadvantages. It's the price to evolution.

Anyway, Elon Musk has some ideas ... :b ...And they are spreading around to other car manufacturers. Now, the key; that needs to be simpler and safer too.
? About a code you enter somewhere to get control of all your car's operational system? Just don't get a memory lapse.

? And in regards to Elon Musk's ideas: Elon Musk issues a stark warning about A.I.

The guy is also a peacemaker with good common sense? ...You betcha...with an open vision towards a better future...like Stephen Hawking.
The robots we build with Artificial Intelligence; they can take over and enslave the human race.
The people who build them; they better be smart/peaceful people.

Anyway, because it just came up in the last few hours. ...And I wonder...what he thinks of 3D movies... :b
That would be cool to have him right here and ask him few questions.
