Re: AT&T's Gilbert: The Goal of AI is Automation
I recently read that one of the larger tech companies shut down one of their AI programs because it seemed to be getting "too smart". I'll try to find a link & post it if I can.

@elizabethtv I thought it was pretty funny too! Sounds like if they can't resolve this, either Australia will be late in getting self-driving cars, or kangaroos might need to learn to be smarter than cars and stay out of the way!

@afwriter Frankly, I'm thinking robot overlords might be more empathetic/helpful than many of the humans working at call centers. :)

Re: AT&T's Gilbert: The Goal of AI is Automation
@srufolo1 I remember someone telling me that there were buffalo in Golden Gate Park and thinking they were joking. In my mind, I imagined them roaming around - the reality was a little less exciting, but still kind of cool

@elizabethv For all the criticism that AI could be used for nefarious purposes, I think AI can do more help. Great to see people highlighting the beneficial side of artificial intelligence.

Re: One "Humble "Suggestion....
Using AI for good - like what's happening in Texas right now would be amazing! I would just prefer it not be in the form of self-controlled semi trucks taking loads of supplies for those in need. Semi trucks scare me enough without them lacking an actual driver. Even if it could potentially mean more aid for victims.

Re: AT&T's Gilbert: The Goal of AI is Automation
@faryl I like your historical facts on the near extinction of buffalo. I do remember learning that Native Americans killed and used what they needed, like skins and meat. I learned in grade school that buffalo were extinct, and was surprised when I was in high school to see a farm near my house in Pennsylvania that had buffalo.

As I am making the "final rounds" for the month, I am seeing watching live feed as the President is arriving in Texas. What I hope to see is harnessing the power of AI For the good that is critical--as for the Sharks, we will be vigliant!!

Onward to September team..as I wish all a great rest of the week.

I think that when she thinks about AI her mind immediately goes to robot overlords and not a call center in Decatur, Illinois

@faryl - that's amazing! I want to see a self-automated car get confused by a kangaroo! That sounds like a life dream type goal right there!
