  1. I'm pretty sure these "scientists" just really wanted to use their grant money to buy cocaine.

  2. This is a real problem: localized pollution. While people scream and cry about "climate change", their water and air are being polluted by local sources. This has an immediate effect on the entire ecosystems. In addition - when you destroy and drain marshlands you will immediately have flooding in surrounding areas. You don't need to wait for climate change for this to happen. People talk about Manhattan getting flooded regularly because of sea level rise caused by climate change. This always amuses me, because the reason Manhattan gets flooded is because you destroyed all the wetlands that used to surround the area. You can't carbon tax local pollution though, so there is no incentive to fix this.

    What is wrong with dancing around in women's lingerie? Seems perfectly normal to me.

  6. And did they also sabotage Tesla? Or was that the "shorts" doing that? There are so many bad guys out there. It is a good thing companies like Symantec are out there stopping all this from happening.

    I don't see how Marriott would consider that a problem.

    My guess it was the Wife lobby pushing to get these installed in hotels.

    What is this thing you call "privacy"? Don't you want the corporations to know what you are doing so they can better sell things to you?

    That isn't a troll. I install these systems for Marriott. You sound like you have something to hide!

    The systems will also be wired into the entertainment system so they cannot be turned off. I don't know why you would want to turn them off anyway, unless you have something to hide.

    What were the shocking allegations? All I heard was that two guys got canned for making too much money and yelling at some Millenials.

    Trump is an idiot, but people like you are fraudulent. That doesn't make you any better. AI is fake, and so are you.

    Completely fake. The topics were prearranged, and yes they were "assigned on the spot" but there was a predetermined list. IBM is desperately trying to sell their AI snakeoil. If AI worked, why not have it solve REAL problems that people will pay for, rather than parlor tricks like plying Go, and Chess and other games?

    So stupid. The worry isn't that the video will turn a kid into a Nazi. It is the worry that exposing children to hate and idiocy will cause them mental anguish. It bothers me as an adult that someone as stupid as a Nazi exists, you can only imagine the effect it has on normal children and normal adults (obviously not including you)
