Will Gov Nuisance’ New Law Get Every Dem PAC In California Charged With a Crime?

September 19, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Gov. Nuisance has made it illegal in California to knowingly distribute “an ad or other election communications that contain materially deceptive content.” This will result in lawsuits, not just because much of what Gavin’s water carriers put out there would violate his law. It is unconstitutional, so there’s that, but I get it. The technology … Read more

Night Cap: The Boston Globe Bails on Biden, But Before They Do …

October 10, 2024July 6, 2024 Skip

It is amusing to watch the Democrat and Media “Mea Culpas. Did they know Joe Biden had dementia before the Debacle of that Debate?” Does that make this a ‘Coverup is worse than the crime?”

Big Tech Conundrum: It Can’t Have A.I. and Reduce “Emissions” – Whatever Will It Do?

July 6, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Artificial Intelligence is all the rage, but its pursuit—and that of profits—has created a problem. You don’t birth digital consciousness out of nothing. Even the most basic AI requires a lot of electricity, and the more powerful the system is, the more users call upon it and the more significant the “emissions” needed to keep it operating.

What Do Evil A.I. and Members of Congress Have in Common?

January 28, 2024January 28, 2024 Steve MacDonald

Whenever anyone talks about Artificial Intelligence, even the least capable pop-culture dullard will conjure an image of Skynet from the Terminator series – or something similar. Joshua from War Games, perhaps. None of this stops anyone from trying (we’re an arrogant lot), including Google’s Anthropic, which created an evil AI.

Smartphone Apps that Make Pictures of Clothed Girls Naked vs. Boys in Girls Locker Rooms …

December 10, 2023 Auntie Vaquser

Artificial Intelligence apps have begun to proliferate across the internet that allow you to take pictures of clothed girls and women with a smartphone and make them nude. Victims feel humiliated, and the potential for abuse is enormous, but I’m sensing a disturbance in the transgender force.

It Ain’t AI if it Don’t Learn.

November 23, 2023 Burt Janz

You read that right: you can’t call it Artificial Intelligence if it doesn’t fully imitate Human Intelligence. I used to teach this stuff at a local college in their 400-level computer science curriculum. The book was Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach, by Stuart Russell and Peter Norvig. It’s considered the book to teach first-level concepts … Read more

Elon Musk Names ‘Xs’ New Artificial Intelligence (AI) Engine … Grok!

November 6, 2023November 5, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Elon Musk is launching the latest Artificial intelligence to grace the interwebs. Why would we need another one, you might ask. Well, according to Musk, it’s not like those other AIs, which most users have admitted can tend to be a bot too woke.

The Massive Energy Demands of A.I. are Bad for the Planet

September 19, 2023 Steve MacDonald

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, has become the popular blonde in both tech and cultural circles. It is writing papers for students, and could write blogs for websites, white papers, technical reports, just about anything, but should it?

BANANAS: CHAT-GPT Writes Sermon, Calls Vermont to Repentance

July 16, 2024July 24, 2023 Johnny Bananas (Fake News Reporter!)

The faithful at Rabbi Schmuley Bojangles synagogue in Woodstock, VT, were shocked this past Sabbath when they found out the sermon he delivered was not his own. After slugging out another round of expository preaching from the book of Ecclesiastes, the rabbi announced to his stunned listeners that he had committed plagiarism from the pulpit. … Read more

A.I Says Entities Opposing NH’s Parental Rights Bill Are All Supported by Your Tax Dollars

June 25, 2023June 25, 2023 Skip

When I asked Bard – Google’s AI product now competing with ChatGPT AI (Artificial Intelligence) – who was against SB272, I got answers that were not surprising – using REPUBLICAN NH Representative Mike Bordes (R-Laconia) as my entree into the subject.

A.I. Does Not Need Government Intervention

June 23, 2023 Ray Cardello

Artificial Intelligence, AI, has been with us for years, so what about it has people so riled up? Is it fear that AI will take over and rule our lives, supercomputers will replace humans, or ignorance of the concept?

A.I. Chatbots Lie Like My Granddaughter – Are as Stupid as Most College Students.

June 14, 2023 Skip

AI seems to wat to be both at the same time (lying and stupid). So this is a story about a few questions that I asked Bard about GraniteGrok. First, however, to set the stage:

Biden Department Of Education Concerned A.I. Might Allow Parents to Snoop on Teachers

May 30, 2023May 30, 2023 Steve MacDonald

A few years back, there was a debate in the Granite State about police body cameras. We thought, sure, but how about putting them on Teachers? A few years later, look at what a great idea that would have been.

So I Was Tinkering Around with Microsoft’s New A.I., Bard, Sunday Night

May 17, 2023May 16, 2023 Skip

I would have thought, given my background, that I would have taken much more interest in AI tech – which has sprung out onto the scene with ChatGPT, Bard, PaLM2, and updated Bing (Forbes has a lot of others listed here). Thus far, however, it has been a yawning “meh?”

“The government solution to a problem is usually as bad as the problem and very often makes the problem worse.”—Milton Friedman You’ve been flagged as a threat. Before long, every household in America will be similarly flagged and assigned a threat score. Without having ever knowingly committed a crime or been convicted of one, you … Read more

The Best Ways To Upgrade Your Business This Year

May 4, 2020 Guest Contributor

It is important to always consider ways in which you can upgrade your business. You cannot expect to succeed and compete with other brands if you simply stay the same every year, especially when you consider just how quickly the landscape changes in terms of technology, trends, and expectations.

March 26, 2020

The pandemic is spurring interest in robotics and other automation technologies. This is true even for some that previously have struggled to gain traction. The best example is Amazon’s cloud-based call center service, Connect.

Skynet – Do You Know Where Artificial Intelligence is Going or How Fast it’s Getting “There”

September 23, 2019 Steve MacDonald

Did you know those chips in your computer are doubling roughly every two years? Did you know AI is growing exponentially? Do you know what quantum computing is? Think about this, quantum computing will make today’s supercomputers look like pocket calculators.
