My problem with the "magic" it's only magic if it actually serves me.

There is a reason my logged in Google account doesn't allow me to do basic things like "never show this domain in search results again" which might allow me to actually get an ecosystem going that gives me sane results -- because I'm the product, not the customer.

It would be great to have an AI "agent" that waited over time and snagged the best flight on *my* terms regarding times/pricing/layovers/amenities. But the reality is is that they just want to go back to the airlines and say "25 Million Users are searching for flights through our AI bot, lets start the bidding on who we should prioritize"

And you're the decent person in the middle, yes?

Sir could you explain what is hateful about a general awareness of social inequality?

In mine I'd have to lie as the executive leadership is so AI-frenzied that I could get in trouble for not being on board with it. They can't wait for me to train it to do my job

Actually there is a bluff element too -- in tournament Scrabble if an invalid word is challenged off the board, you lose a turn. If you challenge a valid word, YOU lose your turn. There are only 10-15 turns in a typical game so this is a big penalty, and opens the opportunity* to bluff with plausible-sounding words.

*not against Nigel Richards who probably has 95%+ of the dictionary in his head.

I think taking fast food orders makes some sense, even if it does suck for the people its putting out of work.

Limited data set that it needs to be able to interpret, might even allow people to order in other languages, etc.

You'll be lucky if you're referring to Amazon in the way you currently refer to AT&T or Standard Oil

Like, can I tell the AI chatbot "OK Google, the items that I'm searching for in quotes must match exactly, also exclude results from sites X / Y / Z" in an attempt to match their 1999-era functionality?

Not providing a seat assignment != good service imo

I think the idea is that I'm a goddamn professional and if they trust me with their business data and relationships, they can trust that its to their benefit to give me a day of rest when I need a day of rest.

Its good for bullshitting (actual language, not code), if no one is going to call you out on it.

So I've seen management types using it to write apologies and status-page postmortem promises that will never actually be played out and were only posted to mollify a userbase after some server incident.

Can any Pi hole users comment if this freezes up video streams when done behind the back of a TV app? Or does it work relatively seamlessly like Firefox + uBlock Origin? I'd like to set this up on the home network but its going to be a non-starter if the app hangs up on my family where it is expecting to inject an ad.

Do they mean smartphones? I didn't realize Apple had that kind of market share.

I reckon they'll make the same headway as the climate experts.

If it can facial recognize people and put a MMO style bubble above their head that says "This is Andrea Johnson" I would never not wear it. I'm terrible with remembering names.
