The problem is that significant percentage of the population is stupider than a ML algorithm, so anything that tests cognitive skills and reasoning is compromised.
We can probably test for feelings, but then the system won't pass CxO approval.
"It took over 100 questions for her, didn't it?!?"
That "study" is from the Cato Institute. I have no interest in reading the whole 52 page paper on it, but I'd take whatever Cato has to say with a grain of salt. They and other Koch-funded groups have been pushing this whole "welfare queen" narrative for decades, now.
That's literally the definition of ad hominum.
"Then I won't read any Soros funded stuff!" - see how that works?
The non-clickbaity side of the story (a statement from Center for Elections Systems at Kennesaw State University, who had possession of the server) is here:
"In March 2017, a Center for Election Systems’ server involved in an alleged data breach was turned over to the FBI. While the server was in the possession of the Bureau, a forensic image or copy of all the data on the server was made and held by the agency. Following the notification from the FBI that no data was compromised and the investigation was closed, the server was returned to the University’s Information Technology Services group and securely stored. In accordance with standard operating procedures, an after-action report was prepared. This report outlined hardware improvements for the Center, including repurposing the impacted server and surplusing servers that had exceeded end of life. As part of the report, the original server that had been investigated by the FBI was designated to be repurposed, and the drives on the server were erased and the server made available for alternative uses."
"As noted by the subpoena filed today by the Attorney General’s Office, the data and information that was on the server in question has been and is still in the possession of the FBI and will remain available to the parties in the event it is determined to be relevant in the pending litigation."
So (a) the feds already investigated and found no evidence the server was compromised, and (b) they still have their forensic image of the server. This seems a lot more like litigants and journalists huffing and puffing than it does a real issue.
The class sizes are one way to illustrate how funding is the opposite of what it should be now. Wealthy schools typically have lots of tax income as well as plenty of extra money generated through PTAs and parent donations.
Poor schools, who need extra activities and support the most get the least amount of either.
Your other points are good; this one, not so much.
MI, for example, changed it's funding model years ago to do just that (basically penalize "rich" schools and funnel money to poorer schools, by largely decoupling funding from property tax and make it come from sales tax and get dispensed to schools per pupil count).
You may have not noticed the big improvements to Detroit and other urban districts. because they didn't happen.
Granted these allegations may not be true or entirely honest; that is for the courts to decide. However, if they are true and Musk's business plan did not in fact include fair treatment of employees, unless he tuns a business taht doesn't need employees, then he isn't much of a business leader at all is he? Visionary perhaps, but business hack.
That's a pretty big if. The allegations sound ludicrous.
Do the elite pay the underclass a basic income for nothing other than peaceful coexistence, or do they preemptively put down the inevitable rebellion against their intended genocide?
I could see it going either way, but I know which way I find more likely.
Good thing/. supports religion then!
'cause if everyone trashed religion and just loved lording their supposedly superior intelligence over everybody, it could turn out bad, huh?
2. Trump's billions of dollars in free media coverage. Nobody in the press would denounce him because they were getting too many hits.
Which press were you reading?
The mainstream press portrayed him as some sort of wacky clown, when they weren't portraying him as some kind of sinister mastermind. He was denounced so often that you'd think they would sprain their denouncers.
Sure, they enjoyed the hits, but the hits were (they thought) for "what crazy evil thing did he do now"?
and it is likely that he hadn't without Russian involvement.
That's the hand waving part.
I get why you want to believe that. It's a lot easier than facing up to your policies being deeply unpopular for half the country. And your candidate being just as awful.
Her email thing was vastly under blown. The Secretary of State, discussing classified matters on email through a private email server in her bathroom? Little people are in prison for less.
The point is, we didn't need Russian "meddling" (what, do they employ the Scooby gang? "And I would have got away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling Russian kids!")
Not really. The surface area of all the human beings on earth is microscopic compared to the surface area of the earth (land and water). That also makes for statistically insignificant chance of anyone getting hurt by this. It doesn't matter that the re-entry cannot be predicted.
I think it's a little worse than that. Humans spend a lot of time inside structures that are larger than themselves, and thus present bigger targets.
So in other words like a programming language today - a specification of what the compiler is supposed to do to generate machine readable instructions. Already done.
Maybe we'll specify our specifications in a nicely specific symbolic language, and then have the AI's implement it... we could call them, er, AI languages...
More to the point, when AIs learn to write code better than human coders, the humans are no longer coders, they will instead be writing specifications for the code that the AI will write: essentially they will be managers for the AI.
Maybe? Or maybe we'll use some sort of symbolic language to precisely specify our specifications, and the "AI" will implement it... oh.
Compilers optimize stuff better than I do. Are they AI?
I've been chanting what this guy has been saying for YEARS.
Every point of his post is correct, FLAT colour, NO borders, NO defining lines, NO text labels, not even colour coded icons anymore, all one colour, it's a god damn sloppy disgusting joke that's HUGELY DIS-intuitive to me, I STILL double check what I'm clicking because I don't know what it is, BECAUSE IT'S NOT LABELLED!
Colour coded, labelled, borders make a massive difference.
Modern design is awful. but hey, some moron gets to call it 'clean'
You just don't get it man... shave your head, put on the funny little glasses, grow the mandatory facial hair, and it will all start to become clear:)

That has to be the best stocked Walmart I've ever seen - it works!!

So if this is true, there is no story. At all.
Any comments, angry folks?
But wouldn't it be tempting to bid on a 5 billion dollar contract for weaponized AI ? Every government will want one.
And every government (or many) will get one. So won't we need our own too?
Except for 1 key difference. With Deep-Neural-Nets, the knobs twiddle themselves alone.
What does that even mean? Humans set them their tasks, and their success criteria, and humans ultimately decide if they did the task right.

Anybody can make allegations.
If money is speech, corporations have a lot more of it than you do.
So do unions.
So do political parties.
And government has way more than any of them. And government can take their money too.
How is this proposed law abridge speech?
Yeah! I mean, it's not like anybody is ever persecuted for their political opinions or anything.
But seriously, why would anyone want a VR "woods simulator" instead of taking them to the woods, for example?
Fewer cases of Lyme's?
(j/k; I agree with you)

But these are not guidelines, and not even proposed guidelines. The numbers seem to be consistent with health effects stated in other sources, e.g., http://www.radiationanswers.or... or http://www.radiationanswers.or... :
Dang it, there you go being all rational and stuff. We're trying to be outraged here!

You all just loved Russia when they were flat out honest to goodness murderous communists.
Maybe it could help put the brakes on the recent suicide epidemic.
Maybe actually treating depression would help.
Instead it's been trendy to complain about "over-medicating" people, to be anti-ECT, etc.
"Reboot" the brain?
So, basically electro-convulsive therapy, but for cool people.
So in other words like a programming language today - a specification of what the compiler is supposed to do to generate machine readable instructions. Already done.
That was my point :)
"...using inadequate language..." ITYM "inappropriate."
Yeah, I loved that ... really, most profanity outbursts probably are the result of inadequate language, IMHO.
That's exactly what a Russian dezinformatsiya agent would say.
