My tinfoil hat theory is that this instance is less a cashgrab and more an attack from AI slopbros to drown out criticism their billionaire overlords.

Really keen to sit down and read this book though.

I switched to KeePassDX for this reason among others.

More of an assisted drop than a mach 5 launch (though that kinda liftoff would be fun to see), but yeah it would have to take the armour with it, not that it makes much difference if the battery is ready to toast everything in the vicinity.

If airbags going off at highway speed isn’t an issue, we can probably do just as well checking several conditions (controlled stop) before pulling the trigger. Then again, this is assuming the brains are smarter than the ones yeeting a burning battery into a sidewalk.

Interesting idea, horrible execution.

If they really wanted to go down this route, a better idea might be to push the battery out straight down and have a fireblanket deploy itself like an airbag to act as a flame shield and buy time.

Fire fighters are then free to move the vehicle from the fire to better assess and respond based on the circumstances.
