You have at least one human being overseeing the so-called 'AI' at all times, because the half-assed excuse for 'AI' they keep cranking out can't actually think, is not sentient, and furthermore even the programmers that create it can't tell you what's going on inside it when it's running. You can't talk to it, you can't reason with it, you can't ask it to elaborate on what it's output is, therefore you can't trust it's output; you have to have human beings monitoring and auditing it at all times unless you want something disasterous to happen when it does something totally out of left field.
As I just said to someone else: sadly typical law-enforcement type: obsessed with control, doesn't want silliness like 'civil rights', 'human rights', or 'common sense' getting in the way of controlling everything 24/7/365.
Not imbecile or untrustworthy, at least not in the way you might mean; he's just (sadly) typical law enforcement type: obsessively wants to control everything and everyone around him, regardless of silly inconsequential little things like 'civil rights' or even 'human rights', to the point of throwing common sense out the window.
They'll turn it off, then complain about their battery life being shitty and sue Apple for that. Never mind that the feature existed to keep the phone operating as long as possible with the battery capacity it has. Sure, who needs power management, right? Just run everything balls-out all the time and who cares if your phone only runs for 15 minutes before dying, right?
No. We're talking about eye surgery, not emergency surgery, and we're talking about an ophthalamic ultrasound machine. I wouldn't trust any doctor to do a damned thing to me if he couldn't be smart enough to know how his tools work before cutting on me.
You (and whoever else) can't seriously think that all doctors graduate top of their class and are all god-like intellects, do you? Or do you blindly do whatever they tell you to do without thinking about it at all?
It's irresponsible for someone in the position of a surgeon to not to understand the tools (s)he needs to use before actually operating on a patient, and it's also not very smart.
LOL if you asked the entire legion of users in this place that hate me they'd tell you a different story, one filled with me being an idiot, tinfoil-hat-wearer, dangerously paranoid, or some combination of all the above. Just because I'm not a bobble-headed yes-man who agrees with the 'group think'.
Communism and socialism work great -- ON PAPER. You mix actual humans into it? It becomes a shit-show of corruption.
Capitalism isn't much better, really. Ideally, everyone plays above-board, observes the Social Contract (i.e., doesn't intentionally fuck everyone over just for sake of profit), and society prospers. Unfortunately, much like the microbiome in your gut, things only work really work well when they stay in balance.
Sadly, capitalism here in these United States is grossly out of balance. Corporatism is a real Thing, they have too much power and sway in everything, especially our government (which should be above and immune to such things), and to make matters even worse we now have a sitting President (such as he is, LOL) that's working like the damned to take away what little control there still is over them.
How this pertains to the Internet, is Ajit Pai and his bald-faced pandering to corporate interests, and the American public be damned. Thus we have more and more municipalities looking to do an end-run around shitty corporations like Comcast/Xfinity and AT&T.
Fact of the matter is, the Internet is now too important and integrated into everything to call a 'boutique' or 'luxury' service; it must, sooner (preferable) or later, be deemed a public utility, with all that implies.
Actually I was thinking it sounds like a integrator built with an op-amp, connected to a comparator with a programmable reference voltage and programmable hysteresis.
Then how do you explain adults (which I'll define here as "at least 25 years old") who are smokers? Who are aware of the enormous preponderance of incontrovertible medical and scientific evidence that smoking is among the worst things you can do to your health, and smoke anyway?
You dumb shits.. science does not even comprehend yet how the human brain produces the phenomenons of 'consciousness' and 'cognition' and 'self-awareness' and you actually unironically think that we can just throw more and more hardware at the shitty excuse for artificial intelligence they're shilling these days and it will just suddenly become conscious, self-aware, and fully cognitive/thinking? Who is engaging in the 'magical thinking' now? Sure as fuck isn't me! Put away your copy of Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, Mycroft ("Mike") isn't going to suddenly spring into being, the whole approach to so-called AI is flawed to begin with due to lack of understanding, get a grip and come live in reality with the rest of us.
Idiot, you think that's the ONLY example I have? You expect me to write something the size of War and Peace just to satisfy your shitty expectations? Fuck off.
One of the things Trump has made a big deal out of is returning rights/control over things to the States. Montana is now doing precisely that. We'll see if they're swatted down for it or not.
If you want me to write you a goddamned novel to explain why, you can bloody well PAY ME to do so. Tired of doing it for free. So bugger off, not playing anymore.
I'm tired of writing a goddamned novel every time I have to tell one of you fools you have no idea what you're talking about, that's why. And, you are fools. I have friends who work in the industry and have for a long time now, plus engineers, IT professionals, mathematicians, and so on ($SMART_PEOPLE) and we discuss this subject. That's why I know so-called 'AI' these days isn't 'replacing' everyones jobs. Also since historically tech advances always displace workers we see there are always new job descriptions that pop up to replace them. Human labor will never be obsolete. People who say otherwise are fools./thread

You have no idea what you're talking about and need to shut up.
You have at least one human being overseeing the so-called 'AI' at all times, because the half-assed excuse for 'AI' they keep cranking out can't actually think, is not sentient, and furthermore even the programmers that create it can't tell you what's going on inside it when it's running.

Well, then, there's at least one Congresscritter in our government who has a working brain! Who knows, maybe he can educate the rest of them?
You're utterly ridiculous. Cut back on the coffee or something.
Hyperbole much? Cut back on the coffee maybe?

Why are you justifying smoking and vaping?
That's all vaping and e-cigarettes are, been calling them that since they first appeared, and that's objectively what they are.
Then how do you explain adults (which I'll define here as "at least 25 years old") who are smokers? Who are aware of the enormous preponderance of incontrovertible medical and scientific evidence that smoking is among the worst things you can do to your health, and smoke anyway?

No, it's not a 'matter of time'. You are dumb.
Idiot, you think that's the ONLY example I have? You expect me to write something the size of War and Peace just to satisfy your shitty expectations? Fuck off.
Shove it up your uninformed troll ass.
