The Wall and American Idiot always springs to mind when I think of story albums.

In a world where the governance of AI was adequate and the spoils it created redistributed to benefit all (and thus thoroughly look after those who lost their job from AI replacement) I would LOVE AI to be created.

In a world where either or both of those aren’t properly in place, I’d sooner be without it.

By extension I’m saying the US is pretty much the worst place for AI to be invented.

Oops, how embarrassing. I stand corrected and tip my hat.

~~“Web printing”. Basically the printer connects to Google, the laptop connects to Google and your printing goes via Google. Why not give your advertisement profiler everything you print too?~~

No that’s not right.

One’s my server, another one is my HTPC and another one is my OPNSense router. My house has got hidden mini PCs everywhere.

But to be fair here, this spending package has been cooking for a while. The head of the armed forces wrote in LinkedIn a couple of weeks ago that the Arctic was priority one. The timing is obviously suspicious but it’s not like Denmark wasn’t already going to increase spending.

It makes sense if you see it as an AI bot run by the Chinese state.

My wife and 5-year old daughter was followed by a guy who had seen her in a pharmacy; he was having an argument with the store attendant but for some reason decided that she had done something that warranted his attention so followed her out the store and was yelling abuse at her down the road for “stealing” (she had entered the store to buy a lip balm for our daughter, which she has abandoned when she saw what was going on). My wife, panicking, tried to hide in a doorway of a shop that had shut down but he came round the corner at just the wrong time and spotted her, then went to shout and threaten her (and, again, my 5 year old daughter). The shop across the road saw what was going on and called the cops, who came to unstick the situation within a minute.

But I’m sure you’ll find a way to somehow disregard that story and all the others you hear of the police helping people. Bear in mind I don’t live in the US before writing your next comment, please.

Unfortunately the work I’ve been involved in is all in a commercial setting and I don’t think it would behoove me to talk too much about it. One was a major replatforming of an enormous, global education platform. That succeeded but took 6 years, not 3. I’ve gone through major engine changes in various game studios; one of which was built from scratch, one which was kept up to date and had original GameCube code in it by the time we gave up on it and I’m in the middle of one right now, building a new platform for another education platform and refactoring a large VR platform. I wish I could detect a pattern of success - the only association I can find is with “patience”.
