Less is more, more is more, more is less, and less is less. It's all a perspective thing. I don't chase salaries. I chase dreams
After living in 'the city' a few times, I couldn't afford it even with all the money in the world. Too much stress, too much drama. Fresh air is better, more sky is better.
I put my lumia and iphone in a drawer together and made Cortana and Siri fight it out. Turns out they go way back and are good friends. :/

The only thing I find scary about AI, is that given the opportunity to re-write itself we would actually finally see how programming should be done.
Which raises the question: can you even have 'real' AI without the ability to self-modify it's own code? If so, our protection architectures are severely broken platforms to develop AI upon. We need something as broken and half-assed as our own childhood to make it all work
I wonder why this conversation isn't more popular. I saw a TV show, this was way back, perhaps almost 20 years ago, but they were working on it, I think a student group at maybe Stanford or MIT? The code would iterate once or twice and then crash. They made it seem like "real" AI was really just around the corner, for once.
The people don't want AI, they want the illusion of AI. A search engine with a voice interface. Maybe if we iterate in reverse, we'll reach the same goal. Rather than trying to stuff an encyclopedia into an infant's mind, we teach the encyclopedia to walk and talk like a human. Which is probably the way to go, it's certainly the path of least resistance and seems to be the most popular. It would be neat if thankless work if somebody approached the issue from the opposite end like we were doing up through the 90s, again.
We'll know we are in the future when our neural implants start developing rampancy... I feel like I've been living in the future since I was old enough to think about it. I can see things for what they are, but I try hard to not be jaded by anything. Because then you will have no fun at all.
