Before that it was 'big data'. remember that?

every 5 or so years the media needs some new tech to hype up to get people paranoid

Exactly. It will lead to improved automation for industrial processes but it won't ever be a consumer tech other than improving your siri results.

It won't replace jobs, anymore than industrial robots in factories replace them.

'big data' 'crypto' etc.

AI is just the next 'big thing' that amounts to nothing. 90% of what anyone says in the press/media is total nonsense. And most AI researchers are downplaying the hype because they know it's all bullshit and AI will ultimately not be a major change anymore than navigation systems in cars was. It is merely convenience and those that 'rely' on it will end up in trouble.

It's a complementary technology, not a revolution.

isn't his shtick to generally offensive?

reminds me of my neighbors

We passed one of these in MA for automobiles via ballot measure. Auto makers flipped their shit.

People on the board are shit at their jobs because most boards are full of people who don't ever work at the company. They exterior consultants for the most part. Every business I have worked for, the board was a bunch of wealthy folks who showed up like 1-2x a year for the board meetings, but otherwise had zero idea what anyone did or who anyone was other than the C-suite.

Boston. Indies open at 8am and close at 2pm. Starbucks is open like 6am-9pm. If I want a coffee at 3pm I am stuck with Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. Indies can't afford to be open an extra 7 hours where they are doing very little business.

I don't understand why people like Starbucks so much. Their coffee is nasty and so is their food. But people are addicted to it. All my relatives have the app and spend like $50+ a week there.

Only reason I ever go is because I'm roadtripping at 6am and it's the only place open that early. The indie coffee shops don't open until 8am.

Hard to be a God.

Advanced humans acting as implanted sociologists on a medieval world.

we have a ton of these around me. they are post filled with junk books though. it's kinda sad. people just dump their used study guides, self help books and other trash level stuff. i find like one good book every other year.

Microsoft already had this trial back in the 2001.
