Future proofing inevitable things should be something to talk about more.

For instance, people will be scraping at a "growing" rate as they figure out how everything AI works. We might as well figure out some standard seeded data packages for training that ~all sources/sectors agree to make available as public torrents to reduce this type of problem.

[I realize this ask is currently idealistic, but it's an anchor point to negotiate from.]

I wore their away kit for Halloween this year :D

But I suspect they're just like all the others -- looking for credentialling where it doesn't yet exist.

[Guess we'll find out... not holding my breath for what would be a dream for us both]

Diabetes causes rupturing of small blood vessels, which has been seen in eyes and feet. It would follow that the same is happening in the brain and an anti-diabetic medicine would directly improve brain longevity in affected individuals.

To solve that:

Assumption: Apple's supply chain is gold standard [~max iterative tech envelope push & max known demand]

Hypothesis: This is swiftly re-creatable for any [max believable & max useful] product. "Detroit, waiting".

I like that! Although...Physics [so gpu] is enough to do it, when supplied with an optimized way to "know" momentary_[intent/\status] as a reduced ongoing string of equations.

...as soon as the MBAs realize "no bubble", in real actuality, Means "very many even bigger bubbles", and usher forth to unleash their true potential... we are set!

One would think...all of the above.

I think, really, the emperor has had no clothes for quite some time. But -- now that we are here, the optimal path is towards open standards.

All historical business acumen points straight to black-box profit bubble. The enormity of what "Useful Robotics" will bring about has got to transcend that.
