AI is a pipe-dream - nothing more. A computer is a mechanism, and so is a computer program: it's a software mechanism. So is an internal combustion engine.
Functional, strong AI in a computer system is as likely as your car's internal combustion engine, together (presumably) with its engine management system, evolving into Optimus Prime. Isn't going to happen.
I think what does happen all the time is that people have no idea how a computer works, and so they choose to believe that it's somehow an intelligent, thinking system -- which is the same as believing that your car knows where to go when you start it up.

I'll start worrying about that around the time natural language recognition is a fully solved problem. Should be any day now, given that we've been "5 years away" since like 1960.

I would certainly dismiss you immediately for poor grammar and poor thinking.

why? You always you can to continue programming.For example IA programming  or for the improvement and maintenance of IA. But if you're a bad programmer will always could get other jobs to do, to be able to survive. That term "the machines remove our work" is only for failed people that the best thing to do is receive orders, they have no initiative and motivation for start up thing, want everything done.

Internet Explorer has been terminated with extreme prejudice on my work machine. I am now basking in the fluorescent transcendence that is Chrome.

I'm actually back to firefox. Too often Chrome failed to show a page correctly for me.

FF is still a greedy pig - it does like to hog it's memory rather too much for me. I'm back to Chrome again.

? I found Chrome way more greedy than FF, plus the mangled layouts of many pages.

I don't get that problem - it's probably a reflection of the different way we use our browsers.

Main problem I experience is still being single-process, one plugin can bring down the entire session.
Memory wise, my perception is that chrome got worse and ff got better, to the point where I don't care about the difference.
Plus, I moved from google to duckduckgo as main search engine and I thought that would be a little pointless if I continued to use chrome.

Nope. I've used Firefox here at work and at home on occasion, and just prefer Chrome.
Our corporate IT Gestapo insists that the corporate intranet sites only work properly with IE. I did a quick test, and the intranet sites I use (bug tracking and HR) all work just fine with Chrome. The thing that finally triggered IE's demise was the most recent group policy push, which triggers security message boxes from IE for almost every navigation. In some cases I was getting message boxes for just scrolling the damned page.

Did they investigate to see if the security alerts are actually an issue?

Sorry for being so late with this. Suddenly, and when I least expected it, work started interfering with my usual CP activities. I hope this will stay an exception to the rule.
Cheers and have fun!

I first thought of replying later, but then again I've already had enough of this for today.

Hmmm, I wonder if I should just declare you the winner and be done with it, but then again I'd rather wait a bit longer.

I thought I might answer it tomorrow - if I can be bothered.

Why do it tomorrow? I'm sure it can wait until the day after.

I don't want to commit myself that far ahead...

Well, do you?
If not I'll let super solve it.
