The whole Tesla saga is eerily reminiscent of Enron. Check out these quotes:
Lay (CEO of Enron) told Enron employees in October 2001 that Enron was under attack by short-sellers "just like America's under attack by terrorism." Lay's lawyer, Michael Ramsey, had referred to the short- sellers as "vultures."
Musk: "The last several years have taught me that short-sellers are indeed reasonably maligned. What they do should be illegal.”
Be very wary of any executive who hates short sellers. Short sellers are the only ones looking critically at a stock. Everyone else is just a cheerleader and that leads to bubbles and fraud.
That is easy: just write a random sentence generator with the following words as input: Classification, Deep, Learning, Neural, Networks, Processing, Speech, Vision, Sparse, Weighted, Infer.
Not trolling. Just responding to the comment where he said that habitable planets were "only" a few light-years away. Just like room temperature semiconductors. I mean look at the response below where the guy said "it could be worth sending a population on a trip to get to one if we have confidence they could live there". Completely oblivious to the fact that a population could never reach "there".
Yeah but my first computer had only 64KB and my current one has 16GB. Therefore everything is possible given time. Also, people used to say that humans couldn't fly, but now we do. Oh and someone traveled and "discovered" America from Europe so that is like going to another planet. Plus we have AI and stuff.
Again, BOTH parties were on board with all of that. You guys are so blinded by your love for "your team" you aren't seeing reality. We wouldn't have gone to war in Iraq or Afghanistan if both parties weren't cheering for it. So just stop.
We aren't talking about morality, we are talking about politics. If you think one team is more moral than the other one then I don't know what to say to you.

This graph from the report is particularly scary: https://www.arctic.noaa.gov/Po...
Damn. This is what obsession looks like, folks.
Don't bother. Rei is a Musk fanboy. Musk could be a raving lunatic and it wouldn't matter to him. That is how fanboys roll.
It is a shame they didn't tell you about all that before you you were hired.
Yeah no. Otherwise they would have done it already. Or someone else would have.
Ivy League universities give you access to the alumni network which is the most important thing to have if you are looking for a well paying career.

No, they removed the keyboard because it was too heavy.
Wow, Geoff Hinton? Yoshua Bengio? I forgot about them. You are right. They are very high impact. Right up there with the creator of Eliza.
There is really nothing you can do to digital processors at this point which is going to have a significant impact on performance.
I just outsource my AI paper publishing to the Chinese.
Impressive. Who is next to publish?
No, the article clearly said that the EU was #1 in that. Oh wait, you thought AI has actually a thing?
...on publishing AI research papers. Get to work people!
That would be pretty impressive if Intel can get commercial chips at 10nm by 2019.
Yeah, this semiconductor is useless, but sending humans to another planet that would take 86,000 years to get there isn't useless.

Two.

"So I'm left with voting for individuals from two specific parties."
No you aren't. You can vote for anyone you want. Just do a write-in. You might think it is ineffective, but voting for bad people is worse.
You were sold out a long time ago, you just haven't realized it yet.
They will work for you if you give them something in return. That is how it works.
