Throwback Thursday: 🚨 Big Brother just got an AI upgrade — and he's riding shotgun in your truck | The DP Show Ep 30
Exploring the origins of the AI "Kill Switch" technology coming for our cars.
Have you ever considered what it would be like for your car to decide if you're fit to drive? That's a reality we might be facing soon, thanks to a controversial new law that has stirred quite a debate.
Rustie and Dusty delve into the implications Section 24220 of the 2021 Infrastructure Bill requiring new cars, manufactured after 2027, to include a "kill switch" technology. This system is designed to monitor drivers' conditions and potentially prevent them from driving under certain conditions, like impaired driving. (click here to watch)

"At what point does crime prevention become blatant government overreach?" Rustie asks, voicing a concern many share about this technology.
What Does This Mean for Drivers?
Monitoring and Control: The system will passively monitor driver performance. Sensors might assess your steering, lane keeping, eye movements, and even blood alcohol levels.
Privacy Concerns: "This is a violation of your Fourth Amendment right," Dusty argues. The technology's ability to invade your privacy raises significant concerns.
Technology Delays: Although the law is set, the technology isn't fully ready, leading to a delay in its implementation. "They have it," Rustie notes, "but it's not ready yet."
The Political Landscape
The bill, part of the 2021 bipartisan infrastructure law, has sparked political controversy. Some politicians, like Thomas Massie, have attempted to defund its development, aligning with views against excessive governmental control.
The conversation between Rustie and Dusty underscores a broader theme: the tension between technological advancement and personal freedoms. As you consider these developments, remember to question the narratives and research the facts yourself.
Foreign Origins
An American automotive manufacturer seems to be at the center of all this. But the larger concern is that even though it's an American automotive company, they're developing this technology primarily at an R&D center with partner firms in a foreign country.
