“Rideshare” is also the least accurate term used to dodge regulations. It is just a taxi/cab. You are paying someone to get you from one place to another. They aren’t sharing their ride, they were never going where you are going before you told them to.
Taxis/cabs are legal. Also, perhaps because of age, I tend to view taxis and cabs as phone numbers you call for a car to show up (or go to a taxi stand), whereas I see rideshare as reserve via an app.
I think ride share really just means a vehicle that is used not solely for commercial purposes
They are legal if you follow the regulations. The problem with the “rideshare” companies is that they don’t. We should just call them “unregulated taxis” rather than pretending that they are a different service. I think just about every taxi company these days is on some app or another (often the same that call unregulated cabs in countries that actually got their shit together and banned the unregulated ones).

I’d like to point out this probably would have taken another 10-15 years to achieve had it not been for the disruption of said ridesharing apps.
I use a local cab company. They smartened up after getting crushed by uber in the first couple years of their existence. Now they have an app that’s similar to uber, but I just call and use the web link that shows me where the car is.
It’s literally the same service, but I have to give my info to Uber’s app to get it.

They literally changed the name of the company from UberCab to duck regulation.
It would have been cool if they’d renamed themselves “Calloway”.

Thanks, new anxiety unlocked
shouldnt 4 also include AI generated images?
Better term would probably be generative AI to also cover music, video and my grandmother’s soul.
Llms generate those afaik
No, those are generally diffusion models, not large language models. Language models generate text.
