Something to keep in mind when people are suggesting AI be used to replace teachers.

Exactly. He already has his hand up the government's ass and had been sucking off billions of dollars in subsidies and other benefits. This will only get worse, but apparently boosting musk is bipartisan, the two parties just differ in how much they want to give to him.

I have no confidence in Intel's long-term prospects.

Break free from the solution they resorted to in the pursuit of profits? Too bad that backfired, but it's okay since Intel can keep making subpar products as long as the government has their back.

I'm more concerned with the threats from the people in charge of the system, but whatever gets them to the conclusion that it's a bad idea is fine with me.

Wait until you hear about the NSA. Hell, with all this talk about security threats, there is one stark example of israel planting bombs in pagers, but no one in the west is talking about banning technology coming out of israel.

Wow, I completely misread that post. Now I'm wondering if I replied to the wrong message or if my brain just completely crapped out.

I know you're being reflexively downvoted by who hate everything AI, but this is the sort of thing AI should be most useful for, which is finding patterns within large problem spaces with many variables.

Right, over the long term prices go down, but it still greatly annoys me that they jacked up prices in the short term. Thankfully I have no need to purchase any storage and won't for years.

I've only looked at the consumer space and all I've noticed is that SSD prices were finally going down after stagnating for years, but then the manufacturers said that prices are too low and they intentionally slowed down production to increase prices, so prices are actually higher than they were a year ago.
