Drones are making deliveries.

[Chuck Ballymoo]

Little Drones in the near future, according to Amazon, are going to make deliveries to people's houses in the near future. Do you like or dislike the idea?

i'd rather have a human being do it, they're more trustworthy

am i going to have to start wearing a helmet in order to protect myself against malfunctioning drones?

This topic has been made before, but I still think Amazon is a genius for this idea.

We made loads of jokes in tutor when we first heard this. Knowing my luck I'll get hit on the head by the thing I've ordered. My biggest worry is someone seeing the drone and you not being there so your stuff gets nicked.

That's my worry evertime we have things delivered through UPS.

I'd rather have automated cars, but I think it should be drones making pizza deliveries. Interacting with a stranger is something I find difficult.

I'd rather have automated cars

uh no thanks, i think i'll drive myself

and i'd be scared of automated cars, because putting a glitchy AI behind a hunk of metal moving 60 mph is not a good sight

...but I think it should be drones making pizza deliveries. Interacting with a stranger is something I find difficult.

All you have to do is take the pizza, say thank you, and pay them.

I think it's an efficient idea, but if a drone was flying and all of a sudden it started raining or snowing, boom it short-circuits. (And that could probably happen even if they made waterproof covers or something) Also, drones aren't actually as intelligent sometimes, and they might dip too low and hit humans or cars or something.

I trust automated cars more than a lot of human drivers.

I know, but I'm the same person who dreads making phone calls and interacting with strangers.
