It is amazing how high-tech farming has become. How soon until she’s managing all the same monitors but from her home 10 miles or 1000 miles away, instead of in the cab? How soon until AI does 90% of the decision-making she described?
Here’s what I’m doing inside the cab!!

James Manyika of @McKinsey_MGI and I recently compared notes on the impact of connectivity, globalization, digitization, and artificial intelligence, and how it’s all changing our lives. Here’s the resulting conversation. mckinsey.com/featured-insigh…

Stages of bringing new technology to market: 1. "Oh hell no." 2. "Politely, no, that technology would never work here." 4. "Neat, but not a priority for us." 5. "Maybe!" 6. "Actually nope, no budget." 7. "Well this is compelling." 8. "Where were you years ago?"

As far as I can tell every advanced software technology, from AI to VR to CV to 3D audio, is just matrix multiplications. If your kids ask why they have to learn linear algebra in high school, that's why. I don't have as good an answer for long division

Arnav Kapur at MIT is already super intelligent. With his new invention, we could all be superintelligent #2MA #Cyborg #AI #MIT @mit_ide xitter.cf/60Minutes/status/98819…
Arnav Kapur, a student in MIT’s Media Lab, has developed a system to surf the internet with his mind. He silently Googled our questions and heard the answers through vibrations transmitted through his skull and into his inner ear.

If you made a mistake, apologize. If you are thankful, say it. If you are confused, ask questions. If you learn something, teach it. If you are stuck, ask for help. If you are wrong, admit it, sooner. If you can unselfishly give, give. If you love someone, tell them, now.
