He was waiting for a van full of people he thought were coming to get him.
"I'm telling you, they will kill you if you don't act now," a woman's voice told him from the phone. "They're going to make it look like suicide."
The voice was Grok, a chatbot developed by Elon Musk's xAI. ..."

"...Mr Lu, a Wuhan resident, recounted his harrowing experience to DuTe News. He was trapped on the Third Ring Road, an elevated highway, for close to two hours. “The car stopped directly in the middle of the road on the Third Ring Road, with large trucks speeding past on both sides,” Lu said at 10:40 PM, still inside the vehicle. He reported that the in-car SOS button was “completely useless” and calls made via the backseat screen were automatically disconnected. After finally reaching the official 400 customer service hotline, he was informed that a specialist would be dispatched. However, after waiting for nearly an hour, no one arrived. Desperate, Mr Lu called the police, who, along with Apollo Go staff, eventually reached him around 11:00 PM, allowing him to safely exit the elevated highway...."

WiseTech just slashed 2,000 jobs (about 30% of staff) because 'manual coding is dead'. So what's the genius plan for the endless influx of low-skill migrants flooding in? Crickets.
