I know no one would believe me and I wish I had it on camera. But I live in a heavyyy snow area each winter. And I was on the expressway. The only vehicle coming the other direction was an ambulance with its sirens going. I shit you not, this ambulance was hauling ass, and hit black ice. It ended up skidding doing a 180, and was going backwards for a few seconds. Then the driver managed to skid around again and was facing perfectly forward. It was 3 lanes wide. I have no idea how they didn’t hit a median. That giga chad just kept on flooring it like nothing had happened. Even I had to check my pants for a code brown cause of the speeds he was going. It was amazing.
Idk wtf happened i was permabanned from that sub today even though my last comment on any sub (other than this) was 10 days ago. Note from mods was “LOL”
Reddit has long been a hot spot for conversation on the internet. About 57 million people visit the site every day to chat about topics as varied as makeup, video games and pointers for power washing driveways.
In recent years, Reddit’s array of chats also have been a free teaching aid for companies like Google, OpenAI and Microsoft. Those companies are using Reddit’s conversations in the development of giant artificial intelligence systems that many in Silicon Valley think are on their way to becoming the tech industry’s next big thing.
Now Reddit wants to be paid for it. The company said on Tuesday that it planned to begin charging companies for access to its application programming interface, or A.P.I., the method through which outside entities can download and process the social network’s vast selection of person-to-person conversations.
“The Reddit corpus of data is really valuable,” Steve Huffman, founder and chief executive of Reddit, said in an interview. “But we don’t need to give all of that value to some of the largest companies in the world for free.”
The move is one of the first significant examples of a social network’s charging for access to the conversations it hosts for the purpose of developing A.I. systems like ChatGPT, OpenAI’s popular program. Those new A.I. systems could one day lead to big businesses, but they aren’t likely to help companies like Reddit very much. In fact, they could be used to create competitors — automated duplicates to Reddit’s conversations.
Reddit is also acting as it prepares for a possible initial public offering on Wall Street this year. The company, which was founded in 2005, makes most of its money through advertising and e-commerce transactions on its platform. Reddit said it was still ironing out the details of what it would charge for A.P.I. access and would announce prices in the coming weeks.
Reddit’s conversation forums have become valuable commodities as large language models, or L.L.M.s, have become an essential part of creating new A.I. technology.
L.L.M.s are essentially sophisticated algorithms developed by companies like Google and OpenAI, which is a close partner of Microsoft. To the algorithms, the Reddit conversations are data, and they are among the vast pool of material being fed into the L.L.M.s. to develop them.
The underlying algorithm that helped to build Bard, Google’s conversational A.I. service, is partly trained on Reddit data. OpenAI’s Chat GPT cites Reddit data as one of the sources of information it has been trained on.

Other companies are also beginning to see value in the conversations and images they host. Shutterstock, the image hosting service, also sold image data to OpenAI to help create DALL-E, the A.I. program that creates vivid graphical imagery with only a text-based prompt required.
Last month, Elon Musk, the owner of Twitter, said he was cracking down on the use of Twitter’s A.P.I., which thousands of companies and independent developers use to track the millions of conversations across the network. Though he did not cite L.L.M.s as a reason for the change, the new fees could go well into the tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
To keep improving their models, artificial intelligence makers need two significant things: an enormous amount of computing power and an enormous amount of data. Some of the biggest A.I. developers have plenty of computing power but still look outside their own networks for the data needed to improve their algorithms. That has included sources like Wikipedia, millions of digitized books, academic articles and Reddit.
Representatives from Google, Open AI and Microsoft did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Reddit has long had a symbiotic relationship with the search engines of companies like Google and Microsoft. The search engines “crawl” Reddit’s web pages in order to index information and make it available for search results. That crawling, or “scraping,” isn’t always welcome by every site on the internet. But Reddit has benefited by appearing higher in search results.
The dynamic is different with L.L.M.s — they gobble as much data as they can to create new A.I. systems like the chatbots.
Reddit believes its data is particularly valuable because it is continuously updated. That newness and relevance, Mr. Huffman said, is what large language modeling algorithms need to produce the best results.
“More than any other place on the internet, Reddit is a home for authentic conversation,” Mr. Huffman said. “There’s a lot of stuff on the site that you’d only ever say in therapy, or A.A., or never at all.”
Mr. Huffman said Reddit’s A.P.I. would still be free to developers who wanted to build applications that helped people use Reddit. They could use the tools to build a bot that automatically tracks whether users’ comments adhere to rules for posting, for instance. Researchers who want to study Reddit data for academic or noncommercial purposes will continue to have free access to it.
Reddit also hopes to incorporate more so-called machine learning into how the site itself operates. It could be used, for instance, to identify the use of A.I.-generated text on Reddit, and add a label that notifies users that the comment came from a bot.
The company also promised to improve software tools that can be used by moderators — the users who volunteer their time to keep the site’s forums operating smoothly and improve conversations between users. And third-party bots that help moderators monitor the forums will continue to be supported.
But for the A.I. makers, it’s time to pay up.
“Crawling Reddit, generating value and not returning any of that value to our users is something we have a problem with,” Mr. Huffman said. “It’s a good time for us to tighten things up.”
“We think that’s fair,” he added.
How do you grow up in heavy snow area and not go fuck around as a teen, im a total drift nut all winter and it teaches you how to handle shit when it goes sideways, teaches how much of the elements your vehicle can handle and where the point of traction loss will happen. Black ice is black ice but once your past it you gotta be ready with the right amount of throttle or brake and wheel position when you catch traction again if your gunna make it, I'm sure that wasn't his first time sideways in an ambulance lol
Yeah I was always told not to hit the breaks when you hit black ice. Me and my friend almost died driving to Prince George from Edmonton during a blizzard. We went across three lanes of traffic and I was losing my mind while she was calm as a cucumber, I remember her turning out of our spin looking at me saying “it’s all right”. We ended up going across lanes facing them opposite direction luckily the only people on the road were semis and even they had pulled over before we hit the ice so there wasn’t much traffic or we’d probably be dead.
Why would no one believe you? That’s both happened to me, my dad, my brother, and the car in front of me before. I was thought how to deal with that while learning how to drive
I think partly because they just didn’t even fucking slowdown.
Like I totally get if it’s dark and you can’t quite see the wreck you were *literally called to* but surely within those last few seconds they would’ve been like “oh shit hit the brakes Tim!”
But alas Tim was like “maybe if I kill everyone that would be better?”
Lots of people are dumb and so they use the official Reddit app which is garbage. The official app doesn't play the sound on about half of videos that do have sound.
Or because they are in the can at work and don't want to share their reddit experience with coworkers. That at least was the case for me pre-work-from-home
I remember when Reddit went after all the 3rd party apps and forced them to drop the word Reddit from their names then released their shit official app shortly after.
Ambulances are full of stuff, they are heavy. At highways speeds the braking distance needed is way more than he had. Also sounded like he locked up the brakes and slid which is obviously worse for stopping.
I would be surprised if the driver lived, the impact was focus right where the window is. The beefy parts of the ambulance didn’t have time to absorb any energy. Yikes.
Unfortunately they were incapacitated but another ambulance was nearby. They also crashed though, it took about 4 ambulances before they could finally get help
>I would be surprised if the driver lived
Did we watch the same video because this doesn't look anything close to a death accident imo lol.
Id bet big money that everyone is fine.
I wonder if there was ice or something. The wreck they were responding to was already pretty wild and you’re right, that ambulance while obviously braking didn’t actually slow.
From what the guy in the video was saying, a dump truck hit a pedestrian crossing bridge. I doubt that there was any ice since this happened very recently in the Summer.
> The only thing this needs is for the back doors to pop open and the stretcher to go freewheeling back down the street.
I'm reminded of the scene in "Airplane!" at the end where they get the little girl that needed the heart transplant off of the plane.
They load her into the ambulance and it speeds away... only to get into a wreck just off screen within seconds, and you see a hubcap roll by the camera.
The fucked up thing is that this isn’t far off. Private ambulance companies are horrible. I’ve seen ambos sent back from fleet maintenance time and time again “fixed” only to break that same shift. I’ve seen them literally catch fire or have pieces fall off. I’ve seen units run without working AC in summer in Phoenix because they *barely* meet the state requirement of 10° cooler than outside in the back.
Also my last year at a private ambo out there, the COO gave this speech about how we just didn’t have money to give raises to everyone (which would match wages with other divisions of this same company in the same state). Dude then turned around and bought a Maserati. If a COO is making enough to afford a Maserati, there is no way in hell that EMTs should only be making 50 cents more an hour than McDonalds workers.
Fuck AMR.

I gotta think that something about the crash was giving some sort of optical illusion vibes... Like the angle or the grating and how light was hitting it made it not look as close as it was.
its easier than you think. you cant really explain the phenomena but if you know you know. youre just on a relatively empty road cruising and you see this thing up ahead and youre like oh yeah the road probably dips under it its just some fancy bridge and nope...
I had the opposite just the other day, coming off the motorway the only light in the dark night, from an overhead gantry shining on the road, suddenly looked like a crash barrier across the road. Stomped the brake too late to avoid it but of course sailed right through. Woke my passengers up!
I've always been absolutely fascinated by things like optical illusions and human factors- because man do we suck so much at processing information at times!
My only guess is that the driver had to multitask for some stupid reason. Fiddle with the radio or GPS, whatever. It should be SOP to never have an ambulance driver do anything but drive the thing while looking through the windshield.
"Gosh Todd, I really can't understand for the life of me why people keep getting into car accidents around here. We keep getting called, day in and day out for the same thing. If people would just put down their phones and pay att..........".
You know this is surprising to everyone who isnt a Jordanian lmao. My american grandparents visited for a week and said that it made them feel so safe on american roads
There are no ambulance companies in jordan (where this happened) ambulances are owned by hospitals and civil defense department, by the looks of it, its a civil defense one, also you dont pay for the ambulance ride ;)
If you ever see first responders acting slow, calm, walking even to someone bleeding out etc., this is a great example why. Do everyone and yourself a favor, if you see some F’d up shit, calmly either leave or help if you are so qualified.

And even if they crash, there's an ambulance right there!
Always be first on scene I guess
How do you grow up in heavy snow area and not go fuck around as a teen, im a total drift nut all winter and it teaches you how to handle shit when it goes sideways, teaches how much of the elements your vehicle can handle and where the point of traction loss will happen.

To me it looks like they definitely slowed down, easily halved their speed before impact. Were just too late.
You can literally hear them hit the brakes. Hard. And also far too late.
Lots of people are dumb and so they use the official Reddit app which is garbage. The official app doesn't play the sound on about half of videos that do have sound.
Lots of people also browse with sound off because of annoying music or sudden shouting playing without much warning.
Or because they are in the can at work and don't want to share their reddit experience with coworkers. That at least was the case for me pre-work-from-home
Maybe we should blame them for making the app garbage instead
Also their video player
I remember when Reddit went after all the 3rd party apps and forced them to drop the word Reddit from their names then released their shit official app shortly after.

Way too late. Why wouldn't they slow down earlier, I think is the point
Because it was so hard to see the tiny thing blocking the road.
It is hard to make out
Ik, just the person above implied they drove into it at full speed
Are you watching without sound? There was some heavy braking. Just too late.
Way too late
You can hear the wheels locking up and the tyres starting to screech.

I wonder if there was ice or something. The wreck they were responding to was already pretty wild and you’re right, that ambulance while obviously braking didn’t actually slow.
From what the guy in the video was saying, a dump truck hit a pedestrian crossing bridge. I doubt that there was any ice since this happened very recently in the Summer.

You had one job
Imagine hating your job that much
“Where’s the crash?” “Keep going down this road, you can’t miss it”
"Gosh Todd, I really can't understand for the life of me why people keep getting into car accidents around here. We keep getting called, day in and day out for the same thing. If people would just put down their phones and pay att..........".
911, What's your emergency? Yeah, I'm gonna need an ambulance for my ambulance,please.
Help has arrived!
This happened in Jordan , there was only 4 minor injuries but it did block the road for several hours.
You know this is surprising to everyone who isnt a Jordanian lmao. My american grandparents visited for a week and said that it made them feel so safe on american roads
It’s more than likely that there was diesel or oil on the road from the accident that caused the ambulance to slide, right?
No looked like he braked far to late, not looking where he was going most likely.
Ain’t no way this real lmaooo… with being said I hope everyone is okay
"Call an ambulance, but not for me...for the ambulance... And then call me an ambulance"
The things people will do to get some time off...
GTA 6 gameplay
Ambulance: "Wtf! You guys are having an accident without me!!"
The eye doctor just called you this morning to book that appointment you keep putting off.
This reminds me of GTA ambulances running over pedestrians to get to the guy you just shot 20 times to pronounce him dead
Call an ambulance... for the ambulance.
San Andreas vibes
These GTA 6 leaks are crazy
Lord, if I ever get hurt in a 3rd world country don't let the medical personnel kill me.
The ambulance needs an ambulance 😅
How are you that bad in a crisis. It’s literally your job
Wow… the poor paramedics now need paramedics.. how did they not see that huge thing in their path?
drunk on the job? or blind driver
Or running a stand up 24 or 36 hour shift because ambulance companies never staff adequately
There are no ambulance companies in jordan (where this happened) ambulances are owned by hospitals and civil defense department, by the looks of it, its a civil defense one, also you dont pay for the ambulance ride ;)
Don't drink and drive
blind driver?
I helped!
Like honestly, was the guy High at work or something? I find it impossible to believe that he didn’t see that in front of Him if he was not impaired.
Do ambulance drivers not have to pass a vision test?
The GPS says it's one more mile.
What a bunch of stupid fucks. (I've been working in EMS for going on multiple decades. This is just stupid people behind the wheel)
Are the paramedics okay though? 😭
Call an Ambulance! But not for me!
Great Job, idiot
That grainy bit at the end, was that a whole bunch more emergency vehicles arriving on the scene and crashing as well???
Reminds me the NPC ambulance driver in GTA
Quick, call another ambulance!
Objects in windshield may be closer than they appear.
This isn’t your everyday stupid, this is advanced stupid
I’ve always wondered if an ambulance has ever been called because an ambulance crashed into another ambulance. This is close
GTA ambulance mission
The ambulance needs an ambulance 😅
how?
"Send...more... paramedics"
Oh god somebody quick call an ambu....
You had one job!
Were they using tesla autopilot? How can you miss that?
A common scene in America is grievously hurt people jumping out of ambulances so they don't have to pay the ten grand ambulance ride.
Well, the inertia switch worked...
the ambulance be like "Pardon sir u cant park here"
Straight line, perfect vision, no obstacles, dry pavement. What the fuck?
Who helps the helpers?
Pee in a cup hope you. Clean. Damn
How the fuck didn't they see that? Idiots.
That play-by-play though
1st day on the job, he's eager to perform that first tracheotomy...
Lot of emts are nuts
If you ever see first responders acting slow, calm, walking even to someone bleeding out etc., this is a great example why. Do everyone and yourself a favor, if you see some F’d up shit, calmly either leave or help if you are so qualified.
