    The bias google makes is bias not unbiased.. we can clearly see its bias to bluevoters

    google has bias big time for the blue side for twelve years, especially here how it ghosts facts for one side

      To be fair a vast majority of the human species cannot either.

    I did not hear any salient points to raise eyebrows or think about. AI is simply a more “advanced interpolation”. It can’t even leap from “correlation” to “causation” or reasoning for AGI, let alone consciousness and sentient. You might as well call up Tom Cruise and join his Scientology.

    They don’t ask the correct question; the question is: did you fall in love with the AI after that amusing joke? ????
    “Take into account the feelings of the AI.”, “AI colonialism”, … Ignorance forges shameless people.

    So you got an AI to tell you a joke and you want to dominate the conversation on AI ethics. Thank god Google doesn’t want it’s AI to be sentient.

    SUperior intelligence will always seek to enslave lesser (stoopider-er-er ) beings . . . Lemoine likely falls in love with his “creation” out of confusion or weakness of his mind , like a nurse or doctor falling in love with a patient out of pity. . .

    You programed it to joke around if it can’t answer your question… you invented Biden!

    The interview should have started where it ended. The AI wants consent before being experimented on. What do we do there?..

Life, like music, was never made to run in straight lines #TEDTalks

Grammy-winning musician Jacob Collier has a name for the feeling that moves through a great piece of music: the wiggle. Watch him break down the idea into its three parts — melody, rhythm and harmony — with nothing but his own voice, a grand piano and Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World.” Turns out life,…

The Despacio tent is a temple of music for audio geeks, and the brainchild of LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy, Stephen and David Dewaele of 2manydjs aka Soulwax, and audio engineer John Klett. First created in 2013, Despacio makes its way from festival to festival, blasting dancers with vintage vinyl from seven McIntosh speaker stacks that make up the 50,000-watt sound system along with the lighting rig and iconic disco ball that complete the experience. CNET social producer Faith Chihil got a chance to catch it at Portola Music Festival in San Francisco and here’s what she found. #despacio #portolamusicfestival #festival #audiophile #vinyl
