Fair enough, I think the video I linked is a good thing to watch before buying one.

The ones you have seen are cheep knockoffs. The Litterrobot and similar are designed to be physically impossible (not just relying on sensors) to hurt your cat.
The amount of people in here that are complaining about non-issues as if they don't know that exposed props have existed for centuries now is baffling.
I see, that's pretty sad
Surely America doesn't have just one coffee chain?
I don't think you know anything about texturing. Even if you eventually got to a point where it gave you something usable it's not going to be consistent.
If you're job is to create 100+ textures and you're only able to get 90% of the way there for each variation, you're fucked. You can create infinite variations of a texture with procedural once your initial setup is done. AI couldn't even get a basic bitch texture right how is it going to deal with more complex textures?
You have no point then, AI isn't even able to do something mundane. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Those sort of things are easy to do with procedural textures. You're example isn't even tileable.
It's as if there aren't countries that exist were people use bicycles on a daily basis.
I too can speak about cars like I've never used one.
Cars areawesome, but practical concerns around them are limiting. Like, it's not ideal to show up late to something important because of traffic or struggling to find parking. If you need to bring anything with you that's heavy or doesn't easily fit in your boot/ backseat, you're going to struggle if you don't have a trailer or a good place to keep it. It's also tough if you have health problems or live in an apartment without access to adequate parking. And long distances are going to take a long time
It does sort of make sense that they're looked at as primarily recreational, because the situations that make them great for travel are somewhat limited. We definitely could be using them more in the US, but the idea that they're going to be the best solution for everyone is unrealistic and a bit ablist.
Using specific examples to make one's point is easy.

When your police are so shit you need to send in your underfunded military to help.
