They also had to get rid of the NASCAR crosswalk in Daytona. Oops.

We had a cat who loved when we'd turn the lights on and off before bed, and we think he eventually thought we could control the sun, too, because he'd yell at us when his window spot wasn't sunny enough for his liking.

They use AWS and specifically design their software to be able to dynamically scale, ever since Wandavision crashed their playback.

Is it possible that they never entertained having to make their cancellation page scalable? Sure. Is it more likely that they intentionally haven't made it scalable? Yes.

That's kinda my point, though. You have the Google Assistant app for a legitimate reason, and its need to use your microphone is also equally legitimate...the problem comes in when Google says that they don't monitor what you're saying, or worse, they say they can't because your phone processes it all locally. They have this giant loophole that they take advantage of here, in that while they do not keep track of what you say themselves, they embed a third party service that does. While not particularly surprising given it's Google, that's shady as fuck and they shouldn't be able to say they don't monitor just because they let their little bro Alphonso do it on their behalf and they magically get off on a technicality.

Is that to say that it's no longer valid? Or just that it's old news? The list of apps associated with the software is still pretty extensive; Google Assistant even showed up.

Why would someone waste their money on this poll?

It's not even the people; it's their actions. If we could figure out how to regulate its use so its profit-generation capacity doesn't build on itself exponentially at the expense of the fair treatment of others and instead actively proliferate the models that help people, I'm all for it, for the record.

That is entirely true and one of my favorite things about it. I just wish there was a way to nurture more of that and less of the, "Hi, I'm Alvin and my job is to make your Fortune-500 company even more profitable...the key is to pay people less!" type of AI.

But the people with the money for the hardware are the ones training it to put more money in their pockets. That's mostly what it's being trained to do: make rich people richer.
