  1. Again? It was coming last year too, and the year before that. You aren't going to see drones delivering packages. So stupid.

    This isn't surprising. The 90% is the easy part. It is the last 10% which is the hardest and takes a long time to get right (or is even impossible to do).

    Why is pointing out that AI is complete BS "worse than apk"? Siri is a joke and isn't AI. You guys are easily impressed by shiny things. I am just pointing out that they are utter failures at doing anything meaningful and you guys get so upset over it.

    Well lets just try out your claims. I just asked Siri "Who is the president of the united states?" and it said "Donald Trump". So far so good. So I immediately asked "What party does he belong to?" and it came up with a wikipedia page for "Party Leader". So, yeah, total BS.

    Well thats a relief. I was under the impression that AI was going to take over the planet next week.

    " Siri (and Google in the Samsung phone it replaced) know when I usually leave for work, or leave to go home, and pop up a notification with route, traffic, and anything else. They know that on Monday I take my daughter to Girl Scouts, that I leave work at a different time on that day and take a different route."

    Wow, that is amazing stuff. It is almost like they log all that into a database and use information about what you were doing last Monday to predict what you are doing to do the next Monday. Truly cutting edge.

    It is almost as if they aren't intelligent at all, and just voice recognition and speech systems hooked up to back end search engines.

    We never had deep learning Neural Networks in the Cloud before. Now that we have the Cloud, AI will come. Musk and other thought leaders said so, so it must be true.

    My guess is that the deep learning neural net that Siri is running isn't deep enough or neural enough. They just need to add more neurons and make the network deeper and the problem will be solved.

    You need to reread the Constitution and focus on what "Freedom of Speech" really means in that context.

  11. iPhone CPUs? on Intel Fights For Its Future (mondaynote.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You are attaching too much importance to the iPhone CPUs (and Android) market. It is doubtful the margins are high on those, especially since Apple has multiple manufacturers. That is like saying Apple missed out on making Android phones because there were so many of them out there. You don't want to enter a cutthroat low-margin market.

    I don't know why people get upset when I point out how ridiculous the hero worship is. There are ACTUAL heroes out there, but you guys worship people like Musk who create things like Paypal and then spend it all on ego projects (really? the world doesnt need another rocket maker or car manufacturer for the rich)

  13. Moores Law is dead and has been dead for a decade. Don't you ever wonder why Intel CPU's are only 5% faster than the previous generation?

    Hopefully this will also prove that the Electric Universe is real. There have been papers published recently that prove that it is real, but everyone in Physics ignores them.
