the huge majority of people that are poor today are poor because they made/make shitty life choices
Choosing the wrong parents for example. argStyopa I suggest you get out a bit more before attempting to lecture people on issues that require at least an average level of observation of the world around you.
We're talking about AI, which within the next half century will make almost every human on this planet look stupid by comparison
A lot of milestones have to be hit before an A.I. can out-think a gerbil so you are drawing an incredibly long bow there.
20 years ago, and the internet as we know it today didn't even exist
Twenty years ago I was on the internet as you know it today and it's a little depressing how little advancement there has been in that twenty years. We've mostly still got to go through a middleman just to do internet telephony for example, which is a step backwards from how some of us were doing it twenty years ago.
With respect, if you are going somewhere relatively remote in any sort of vehicle you have to make some sort of preparations in case it ends up completely immobilised.
It turns out that the article is incorrect. The bill was proposed by a minority party and was voted down. It's like doing a movie review from the scraps on the cutting room floor that never made it into the film.
Pay them money and they will give you a statement that will have weight. Otherwise treat them like any other subject matter expert on this site giving casual advice.
According to a medical examiner who now spends a lot of time visting schools to try to deal with the problem early a lot of those 8% were injured in the course of the rape so where clearly raped by someone but backed out of the legal process for various reasons, sometimes early enough to get in that 8%, sometimes after charges have been laid but before proscution. Society still paints a lot of rape victims as harlots who had it coming to them, especially in the more "conservative" states of the USA, so victims have been known to refuse to testify to avoid being publicly identified. I probably should keep a log of newspaper articles I read and radio programs I listen to so that I could provide a name and link when browser history is not enough.
In short that figure doesn't describe a binary situation like it appears to. All it provides is a percentage of cases dropped and it shouldn't be interpreted as anything else.
It's garbage if they spring it on you without telling you up front what they are talking about. Also the FBI definition doesn't hold in Canada, Mexico, wherever so spelling out what is being discussed makes sense on the World Wide Web.
It's telling you to do a global replace of many words for that one in your head when you read that web page which sounds pretty simple, direct and upfront to me
It's not so cut and dried or even the same crime or as simple as aiding criminal activity By making themselves look as much as possible like a professional modeling agency they deliberately lulled people into a false sense of security. So more like fraud than trafficking, but still a deliberate action that it's worth getting the courts to sort out.
It's a beige box is the "hard drive" or a operating system means solitaire game but not device drivers moment - just live with the feeble redefinitions of those that never learned the real definition.
You've missed the point. That the target was not you or me this time is merely the whim of a ranting idiot. He picked a soft target but still nowhere near as worthless as the rant suggests - besides, Ancient Egypt which definitely had the wheel before Europe was part of the target of his rant of "and after over a 100.000 years still had not invented things like "the wheel".." Hilarious fuckup IMHO. I have no dog in this fight, but what a complete and utter fucking loser!
Also their "neurons" don't resemble the organic ones much in what they do. The name is pretty well just an analogy. It's a digital simulation of parts of analogue computers but people thought the name sounded cool.
It's not really A.I. but just a pile of lookup tables. As for extreme cases there is already stuff on planes for that - no rules for the situation so the driver/pilot takes manual control.
Facebook's AI can predict when people are going to start dating with 96% accuracy
Facebook's STATISTICAL MODELS. Not A.I. by a long shot.
Reading SF is fine, but maybe before assuming some stuff is real now try reading some very simple mathematics and get an idea of what is actually being done by these things you think are magical thinking machines. Neural nets more closely model portions of analogue computers in a digital way than a bit of a brain so don't get fooled by the name.
Or maybe read some better SF. The "Sword Art Online" novels from Volume 9 onwards describe "bottom up" AI and give some ideas as to how hard it is going to be to develop and then shape into something capable of free will. It assumes almost unlimited computing power (using quantum computing like other SF has the shortcut of faster than light travel), brain uploads and accelerated timeframes to simulate generations in days but even such with plot devices it turns out not to be easy.
"Narrow AI" is like how we redefined "nanotech" from Drexler's "machines of creation" to toothpaste.
Yes we can have really big lookup tables to implement complex rules but it's still a "mechanical turk" just doing something other than simple chess moves.
One of the things that annoyed me enough to drive me away from Facebook a few years ago is they sometimes deliberately drop posts for arbitrary reasons. Several small bands who posted tour dates etc found out the hard way about that policy. Apparently you are supposed to pay if you want all your followers to get all of your posts even if they are asking to see all of your posts - plus you are supposed to work that out yourself without being notified of the dropped posts or that policy by Facebook.
The utter loser well above did not specify sub-Saharan so there is no need to reinforce failure, but there is at least one technology you probably use yourself that fits the description and comes from there:

All the post above is really about is ranting at groups other than that of the poster. Today you may not be in the group getting ranted about but tomorrow it may be "what is the point of those losers on the east coast/west coast/"flyover country". Rants about people from a location or race being useless are pointless for any reason other than cynically manipulating others to aggression.
For example people from "pointless" places like France and Australia made a difference with independence and the civil war. Jingoism is one thing but writing off the rest of the world like some do is both stupid and offensive.
Time for a nice hot cup of that sub-Saharan technology.

China? Did you go to sleep in 1968 and just wake up now?
You will like the approach.
It was voted down.

D) The bill didn't pass in the first place.
Shame on the submitter and the editor that let it through.
Did you read the article?
It turns out that the article is incorrect. The bill was proposed by a minority party and was voted down.

Yes, and SUVs are not cars. Thus not really a big deal and bits of California are planning worse.

You should try your hand at writing novels but I'm not sure how much an editor would leave intact if you submitted something like the above post.

Where on earth (or elsewhere) are you getting that from? Are you using a different definition of "neural net" to what I was told in the 1980s?

You appear to be more up to date on this issue than I am.
