  1. Do you have any idea how long it takes for technology to become mature? Because it certainly does not seem like you do. So I just have to ask you bluntly, in general and typically how long do you think it takes for a technology to become mature? There actually is a precise answer to this question. I want to know if you know what that is.

  2.  NicholasWilliams-h3j  to steal is to take property without permission. When data is harvested generally there's an agreement. So it's technically not theft. You weren't doing anything with any of your data anyways so someone might as well get some use out of it.

  3.  @UltLuigi1  well yeah. To lead is the clearest path to victory. With victory comes the rewards.

  4.  @UltLuigi1  that may be their plan but that doesn't mean their plan is going to work. AI is just not an easy business to break into. As it takes considerable resources to participate. But if the big players weren't in the field then I suppose the little guys would stand a better chance than they do now. Oh well.

  5.  @ivok9846  what you have to understand is some challenges are great enough that meeting them takes a considerable amount of time and effort. The scale of problems varies. Bigger problems tend to take longer to resolve. Really big problems can take a really long time to overcome. But there's big problems that are also important problems so we expend more effort on them. Or some technologies that when they surface more people see the importance then. So there's a few factors at play. The size, importance and investments. From small things big things grow. It still tends to take a while for them to grow though. That time frame is minimally decades and can often stretch to generations. AI is a hot topic now but people have been working on it for over 20 years already. So we're already into decades. Now with things heating up I expect advancements to be more rapid. But sometimes there's roadblocks. Problems no one has thought of a solution to. We don't fully understand intelligence. So it is hard to make something when we don't know what that thing is.

  6.  NicholasWilliams-h3j  well, it is good to hear that at least they have their priorities straight.

  9.  @rairaur2234  they never read that EULA. There's just too many letters and words.

  10. So basically one Ukraine aid package. I think we can afford it.

  11. You're confusing your schemes. A pyramid scheme is when you buy in and then get others to buy in. A Ponzi scheme is when you sell a worthless asset for money. I'd say AI is operating more on the Ponzi model myself.

  12. Microsoft has a solution to data acquisition as I can Recall.

  14. Public transportation is a non-starter here. I don't want to sit with you. I'm not going where you're going either. You're certainly not going where I'm going!
