  1. Re:Salespeople making salespitch on Microsoft To Teachers: Using Pens and Paper Not Fair To Students · · Score: 1

    actually I think there's something special about pencils and paper that is irreplaceable.

  15. What are they looking for? on AI Experts In High Demand · · Score: 1

    to help machines make "intelligent" decisions

    IMHO, AI is more than just a way to profit off of individual consumers' weaknesses.

    I, and probably a lot of other people out there, would be very interested in knowing how to create a 'vacuum' program that could know it all. This power would be abused within months after creation, but at least it would be in the hands of the people, not in some giant's arms, so abuse wouldn't span too far.
