DoD actually already has private regions within Amazon.

Imagine what this is going to do to CPU performance.... wait.

I decided to teach my 2 year old child how to play a video game recently. I sat down and showed her what the keys do, how the snake moves, how to make progress, and how to get to the end. It wasn't an instant process. She had to be guided multiple times, taught what the directional keys do, and the names of everything she was interacting with.

After some time, she was able to solve puzzles without guidance from me. Sitting her down in front of a video game with no knowledge at all make her just as clueless as an algorithm. She didn't know where to start, what this is, or how to interact with it.

I imagine just as humans have, AI will have massive libraries of information to tap into before moving into a particular task. As long as they can analyze and figure out what they have been given (such as a video game), they would access a data set teaching them all of these things a computer already has learned in the past.

I wish the article went into a quick view of the details. For anyone that doesn't want to look into it:

* Expectation is that you are giving 8-10 hours a week for 8 months to achieve the certification
* This is a subscription based service at $49/month
* You can apply for financial aid for the courses you are taking to relieve the cost burden
* Once you achieve the certification, then you will receive job seeking aid from Google/Coursera

Like something that resembles a diet coke and mentos video, line em up with some type of rube goldberg configuration and video tape what happens when one of them explodes!

Until you make it successfully then have to do a video interview with him on CNN.

I just sat through a session talking about Intel's SSD line.

There are a few technology differences that Intel is branding in their SSDs vs other vendors. But one of the main takeaways I took from their presentation is reliability.

Intel has invested a lot of lab time into making sure their products are very stable. One of the most striking things they discussed is on a few competitor's SSDs they physically pulled the capacitors that perform some of their write buffers and the health check didn't even detect the issue. This would obviously cause corruption in certain scenarios and other issues.

You are looking for perfection in a perfect world. But the thing is that humans are making horribly bad decisions that a computer just wouldn't make. Humans KNOW it's dangerous to drive across traffic to get the exit they missed but they do it anyways. A computer would not.

This will be phenomenally safer regardless if the computer may not be quite as good as the best driver on earth.

I think a part of the Internet's appeal to some is the ability to post their opinion without personal judgement on the character. You can voice an opinion or ask a question quickly and mostly anonymously.

We have been used to text with newspapers and the digital world for a really long time and it's certainly not going away.

A good example of this is forums. I don't imagine forums being turned into video clips of you responding to replies. It's just too personal and involved (my hair has to be nice, have to be clothed, and can't be shoveling in ice cream while I talk).

Now that's not to say that there can't be an increase in video usage. But I don't ever see it becoming a main source of the general internet public's way to create content.

You don't look for vulnerabilities in someone's 'public' place of business either. It's as if you broke into the library's safe and told the owner 'Your locking mechanism is out of date, I was able to break into it... Then I found your building access key in the safe so I decided to break into all of your employee's offices too."

Quoted from the article: "Levin then went a step further and used the Lee County supervisor's username and password to gain access to other password protected areas."

It's just my opinion but this should probably be put to rest and not thought about in an anniversary like format...

She just turned into a troll... She learned that from the internet. GG Trolls, way to convert another one.

Such a near sighted comment. -Wishing- an attack and deaths of many thousands and possibly millions of people just to 'stomp' an army into the ground.

This isn't a video game, these are people's lives. Losing your parents, children, loved ones, and/or family is horrible every single time.

Please don't think of wars at a macro level with a 'winner' and 'loser'. At the micro level, it's devastating; brothers that live their lives without limbs, children born without eyes, and sometimes lifetime poverty for families.

I'm so appreciative of the fact that I've grown up without this is my life, but I do think it's made everyone forget about the real life impact wars have on people.

Then just don't buy it... That's some crazy hate for crap out there.

I'm really confused why most commenters here have such a negative viewpoint on IoT.

Many comments about "security is terrible", "I don't need internet connected devices, my X device works just fine."

OK, then --don't-- buy it. But you have to realize that the market going through development of products to find consumer desire is a GOOD thing.

Maybe 97% of all the devices end up going away (by the way, without a dollar that I spent on them). But those 3% of devices might actually be helpful and worth the cost; maybe they save lives.

Trying new things and moving forward on an old concept (home automation) creates new options. I LIKE more options, it's the whole reason why I live longer. Please continue to innovate world.
