I have always thought the same thing. It's so funny. Stallone is great in that role. Just such a fun movie.

Government can give you nothing but what it takes from somebody else. A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you've got, including your freedom.-Ezra Taft Benson
You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

All the more reason to tread lightly... no?

Sure. But let's also not make assinine, chicken-spittle predictions.

Why do people think they understand "I".
Quite apart from the currently available resources to create / simulate something like AI.
Artificial yes, but intelligence at the Moment? No
[Edit]
Just a thought experiment:
Let us feed a AI program with all the knowledge, lets say before the "steam time" (more inovating would be to feed "only" with Kepler's laws)
Best case, more a case one should expect *) -if inteligence can be simulated- would be it would present us all the knowledge we have now.
I would state: No chance at the moment for AI at the moment.
*) In case AI really would work we should see a result which is something like "future" [Edit,Edit]which would end in a recursive Explosion to "produce" knowledge[/Edit,Edit]
Only some crazy thoughts

Security teams reveal that the majority of workers would rather just get their work done than worry about security. If it ain't broke, keep working until it is
|
|
|

The majority of pointy-haired bosses prioritize productivity, and neglect security. So no, not surprising that the workers would not put much effort in security - one's job sometimes depends on ignoring it.

Some scientific journals will publish literally anything for a price. You mean... they're not real?

They did a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away.

One of our previous posts, Why You Should Use F#, listed a few reasons why F# is worth trying out today. In this post, we’ll cover some of the basics you need to know to be successful. Just in case you want to get with the paradigm

LinkedIn mined its jobs-related data to investigate the current skills, demands and job desires of software engineers, confirming that cutting-edge technologies like machine learning and data science pay the most. Not in the report: people only tend to update LinkedIn when they're looking for work
OK, maybe it's just the people I know about.

The web needed a freewheeling programming language like JavaScript, but now it’s time to set some rules I'd make a data type joke here, but it seems that's what I always do for Typescript jokes. So... write your own here!

After all, if you know JavaScript, you’re well down the path toward knowing JavaScript.
Pretty sure he meant TypeScript at the end. I was gonna make a joke until I realized that statement is actually philosophically accurate

In a new paper published today by the journal Nature Nanotechnology, scientists at the University of Washington and Microsoft Research describe a method that uses spatial organization to build nanoscale computational circuits made of synthetic DNA. OK, I'm pretty sure we can play DOOM on this one

Removing these underused features helps make Windows easier to maintain, reduces the number of potential security issues, and allows for the development of new features. Now how will I draw my bad drawings?

Maybe they should remove Windows.

You know where we're all going right?
UEFI Boot allows booting from anywhere Microsoft likes. If they can get it small enough and can pull it off semi transparently , one of these updates is going to hook you to the cloud to get at your windows. Already you can't login in many instances to windows without being on the net.
Then they can demand money for pieces or all of it. And they will.
