I love it when Slashdotters talk about "rules" when it comes to Uber vs. taxis or Marriott vs. AirBnb. Guess what? There are no "rules". There is no magical government fairy inspecting taxi fleets or hotel rooms. The only rules are what the lobbyists pay the politicians for. The taxi you get into has no rules. There are no rules for hiring drivers, there is no independent safety inspections. None. The entire purpose of the "rules" are to collect taxes.
Neural nets are a failed concept from the AI from the 1960s. They are just algorithms and have nothing to do with neurons or even mimic real intelligence. They are a dead end. Just because we have seen advances in certain areas doesn't mean that those advances will continue, or applies to other fields. It is entirely possible that we will never have AI at all.
Actually I am one of those guys that actually wrote some of the software for the Pi. There are tons of instructional videos and articles about emulators on Raspberry PI's already. Grow up.
The taxi industry revenue in the US alone is $19 billion. Uber is global(ish). $10 billion isn't a huge debt. They had revenue of $6.5 billion and an increase of 100% of bookings last year. The theory is that you lose a lot of money now, but due to the large growth you will eventually get positive. It worked for Amazon. It might work for Uber too.
In Seattle they only have dialup. And no jobs because Microsoft laid off their entire QA department. That is why I am working as a maintenance guy and don't have a girlfriend.
People are spoiled. They saw the amazing progress of digital electronics in the early-mid 1900s until now, and extrapolate that the future will show the same progress. Guess what? It won't. The digital revolution is coming to an end. We are hitting physical limits we cannot progress beyond. And we certainly cannot live on Mars, because, you know, evolution and biology and stuff. Just because someone has an iPhone doesn't mean anything at all.
Funny there is an article about this guy who just threw together some already built packages, and nothing about the developers who actually wrote all the software. Millennials.

Darn commies. Always trying to create a free market and competition. Don't they know what is good for the mega-Corporations is good for the People?

I love Mars. I only left because it isn't a place where you would want to raise your kids. In fact, it is as cold as hell.
Yeah, businesses always get rid of the awesome productive people first.
*vanishes in a puff of logic*
Thats not what I heard. I heard you got laid off because you were too good at your job.
I don't use a smartphone or the internet.
I'll bet you were so good at your job you got fired from it too.
You should try video game testing. You would be good at it and make a lot of money.
No, AI is something resembling intelligence. Computer programs are not intelligent.
You don't see it working to good for education?

We aren't all rich contractors living off the taxpayers dime though.
That is surprising since from what I heard you are used to paying.
You couldn't pay me to use a spybook like this or Chromebooks.
If you want to read about emulators on the Raspberry PI there are literally hundreds of sites and videos devoted to it.

You fell into the common myth that because cell phones are small, everything must be possible. Image recognition is not AI either.

My first was a Lenovo laptop. It had only a i3 CPU and 4 GB of RAM. No solid state driver either! Ah, the memories.
If you check out Youtube there are a number of projects like that. Including ones where the people actually created their own CPU out of TTL logic.
Truly an innovator. There are many great people in computing.
