decayy··on Mark Zuckerberg's virtual reality demo [video]
Why would I do any of this ?

It seemed a bit forced in my opinion.

decayy··on Google Duo, a simple 1-to-1 video calling app
Knock Knock feature is probably the worst feature i can think of to put in a video calling app.

It sounds so fun rejecting a loved ones call because you're busy.

decayy··on The Canadian Housing Boom Fueled by China’s Billionaires
This is happening in Australia too.

There are new apartment buildings going up by Chinese property developers aimed squarely at the growing Chinese population.

As a matter of fact, construction management university students are told to study Chinese language and culture to help them get jobs after uni

decayy··on The Hyperloop: BUSTED
Does hyperloop require innovation ? Yes it does. If we just stopped innovating because the problems were tough, we would be stuck in the stone ages.

This would work so well with Atom

We seem to be ignoring the current theoretical limitations of A.I. I'm not an C.S or A.I expert. But what I can remember from university is that we need a pretty big breakthrough in computer science to get to that stage. I'm not saying it won't happen. But who knows.

I dont know. I'm not an expert in Theoretical C.S.. But from what I can understand is that we need a pretty big break through in C.S to get to that point.

Sure some jobs will be replaced but new jobs will be created. Thinking on the spot now. A manager and a whole team of people that oversee the job that the A.I does. Jobs that focus on applying A.I to certain field, (A.I consultants)

People value human interaction and when there is value in something, there is money to be made.

decayy··on AI will create 'useless class' of humans
Every time a new tech emerges someone will always say, that the new tech will take away human jobs.

The new tech will take away human jobs. But the humans will just go do other newly created jobs.

decayy··on Please don't send me smart replies
I agree with the article. My friends and I have a complex lingo we use in our text messages and the lingo itself can sometimes be a topic of the conversation.

The "smart" replies seems to robotic and i'm sure many people would find it rude if they got them.
