..Students in higher education are supposed to specialize in a subject, not in a fucking company.
You sure about that? Follow the scholarship money yet? Just how sponsored, is that degree based on millions of campus funds “donated” out of the tax-deducted goodness of a mega-corps bleeding heart?
Be careful what you ask for. Education coffers, just might get it.
Comment Playing vs. Reading..? (Score 1) 37
Perhaps after 165 million games played there is little substitute for the real thing. But given how AI (and humans) often learn a game to the level of building strategy, is there a reason these AIs weren’t merely trained by first reading every Stratego strategy book?
I’ve not heard of a single Grandmaster that has ever reached that level by simply playing the game of chess. They read about it. A lot.
Comment Re:SI: Subpar Intelligence (Score 1) 64
I think SI is a fine title because despite all tricks it can do, it still fails in basic ways that even idiots don't. As such, Subpar Intelligence is the title it has earned. I don't need anyone telling me about hypothetical futures because I'm talking about right-damn-now.
Right-damn-now, is ToddlerAI.
A four-year old little fuckshit who isn't mature in any way. Easily persuaded and often delusional. Can be triggered by bending over Madagascar to abuse nonsensically in an asinine-flavored sentence with little more than an educator testing integrity.

Maybe that's actually a measure of how bad the inflation is.
The electronic price price tag on the grocery store shelf is updated in HFT real-time now, tied directly to the price-per-gallon of diesel fuel at the pump.
Inflation has no fucking idea how to measure the economy anymore when it has become that corrupt.

based on what customers near individual restaurants are willing to pay..
I suppose this pricing comparison is only between McVendors, since they don't even make the same product as the restaurant next door. (The Mom and Pop restaurant down the street from McDonalds isn't a multi-billion dollar conglomerate selling custom designed addiction in a food wrapper.)
Lame to blame this on AI, but I doubt enough customers are going to tolerate some Zillow-grade pricing scam for McShittles sprinkled with food crack. A Big Mac for almost $7? I guess the measurable decline in sales based on this kind of greed is just the fine print franchise owners are not willing to talk about.
