Just goes to show that the majority of consumers have little to no intelligence, real or artificial.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

You may have hit on something - how about an AI that is a "hive intelligence"? The AI would consist of nano-dots light enough to float on air. Individually extremely stupid, together they make up Skynet.
(A similar idea was used by Larry Niven in one of his short stories - a hive intelligence consisting of viruses.)
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

A smartphone in the hand, it's really not that practical. For example, not when one is driving a car or cooking.
It is so much more practical to put an AI robot in your car seat so you can call your robot. Also very handy for making it cook bacon.

Offshore tax loopholes have existed for far longer than Microsoft’s 30 year existence, and the company certainly isn’t alone in making the most out of maximizing tax relief in an increasingly global economy. I don't recommend attempting the same methods with your taxes

I desagree.
In France, we have a saying about a school exam:
"you have the right to cheat, but you do not have the right to get caught."

Is your not count in the second half off by one? "You have the right to get caught" or "You don't have the right to not get caught" both seem to make more sense in context.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

No mistakes here, it is a colorful saying.

The best measurement yet of the lifetime of the electron suggests that a particle present today will probably still be around in 66,000 yottayears (6.6 × 1028 yr), which is about five-quintillion times the current age of the universe. For those who were worried (and I'm sure many of you were)

I think it is still too soon to tell, said the cat....
(Actually, if an unobserved electron is a probability distribution function or waveform, to what extent can we say that two time separated observations of that waveform are the same "electron"? - more semantics than physics question)

I find the issue about what an electron "is" fascinating, and I'm reminded of Heisenberg's thought (which I don't pretend to understand):
"Light and matter are both single entities, and the apparent duality arises in the limitations of our language."
"Atoms are not things; they're only tendencies."
In my next lifetime I intend to explore quantum mechanics and cosmology
