Like you said: See Wikipedia.


Right, but Wikipedia still has lots of issues with vandalism. They do a good job, but it's just not accurate to keep something perfect at that scale. Here's the difference: wikipedia gets vandalized and people laugh. Mapping data gets vandalized and people could die.


The world is a dynamic place. People and AI need to be able to reconcile when what they see doesn’t match a map.


Humans are vandals. Humans are murders.

Humans are creators. Humans build things larger than themselves.

Nothing is perfect. Choose what to focus on.
