You, and probably MARIS, are talking about what’s referred to as “strong” AI. That’s a level of artificial intelligence that has a form of consciousness and can set its own goals. That’s likely decades away. What I was referring to is “weak” AI; artificial intelligence that’s directed at a specific task. We already have rudimentary forms of that in things like Siri, early versions of self-driving cars, etc. My Subaru’s Eyesight system recognizes when I’m drifting out of my lane and can nudge me back into it. It can slam on the brakes if I don’t see the car ahead of me braking strongly. That type of weak AI technology is going to expand exponentially in the near future. How hard do you think it is for your local McDonalds to replace the minimum wage job at the order window with a voice recognition system that fully handles your order for a Big Mac, Coke and fries? Amazon is already rolling out automated supermarkets where every item you put into your shopping cart is automatically added to your bill and charged to your account when you roll out the door without ever talking with a store employee. Companies are going to be looking to this type of technology to keep their bottom line humming along, especially as local governments start implementing higher minimum wage requirements. This isn’t science fiction. It’s here and it’s only getting started.
Tomi Lahren has made her career off of being the hot right wing girl. Not sure what this has to do with the subject but she’s hot as fuck, I will give her that.
Also I knew this shit was a wrap when I saw mtv did this video. Still watched the whole thing. Anybody who knows statistics could of told you most poor people are white given the fact that uhhh you know whites people make up some 70 percent of America’s population. These are the trump voters. The right. Uneducated and fucking their cousins. Yes I know that was a big generalization and stereotypical but fuck it it’s 2018 let’s party.
You sound like Wesley just after being brought back from the dead. "My brains, his steel, your strength, against 60 men, and you think a little head jiggle is supposed to make me happy?" Sometimes, even when things aren't exactly where you want them to be, it is possible to take some joy in or at least satisfaction with progress in the correct direction.
Not hard at all. It will happen. Ha! I will buy just as many then as I do now. What you call AI now I have referred to as heuristic programming, we have been doing for more than 30 years. Driving a car is not much different than I do now in my boat, click the screen and hit the button to go there. All using input from sensors, cool stuff but it doesn't take much processing power. I had an research project to explore the possibilities of AI 30 pulse years ago now to get near human intelligence, and then beyond. Processing power man, we haven't got it. 10 x 10 a few times then maybe. Have you noticed the increase in processing power available in the new stuff coming the past 10 years? Great increases in efficiency as far as electrical power usage and I like that for use on my battery bank, but the computing power is almost the same. Well 2 or 3 x when you move to 8 way or more but no quantum leaps. Will we do it? I don't know how, so I don't know. Warp drive ain't here either.
How long do you think they will do this? When it clearly eliminates jobs, how long before they reverse direction and start requiring jobs instead of tech? I don't know???
Good question. I don't know either, but I do know that when government starts trying to micromanage the economy, the economy usually adapts in ways that the politicians didn't envision.
Yep. I can even see them raising the minimum wage and prohibiting automation. Then never have a clue the business will move to somewhere else.
That girl could sound like the teacher from Charlie Brown ( wa wah woo we waa woo) and she'd still be perfect. Hell, she might be better.
Hey! We have a variation on this theme right now with the latest ballot. Taxing insurance companies when you buy insurance and then limiting the amount the insurance company can recover in premium increases. What brilliant mind thought up this shit? The few companies providing health insurance in some counties now will nodoubt become fewer. The other thing about this laudable goal of providing insurance to Kids, is the narrow scope of who gets to pay!!! About 60% of the work force gets insurance from working for self insured employers. So no tax paid from this group. About 10% of the people have Military or VA coverage. So no tax paid from this group. About 10% of the people have Medicare and don't buy insurance. So no tax paid from this group. About 10% of the people don't have or buy insurance. So no tax paid from this group. This leaves a real minority to get whacked with the tax. A tax for buying insurance???
Buddy, you have just uncovered the very reason stupid shit this comes into being. It only effects a small percentage, so those with no skin in the game believe that it is a good idea...
Perhaps, but I rather think they know, the poor bastards that have to buy insurance can't vote it down. Nor pitch their butts out of the legislature. Isolate them and screw them, one by one for more revenue. Ever more revenue.
I havent watched a single sporting event since the whole fiasco started. I miss the blazers but other than that it's been a blessing with how much less time im wasting being advertised to.
Yep. Well I can't get any Blazer games anyway. Then, I am not so sure they, the Blazer Organization, is trying to win anyway. Too many years go by without progress.
