The U.S. DOT wants us to “dress up” for flights again, as if a necktie is going to fix air travel’s… everything.
So I wrote a sarcastic reminder of what the real golden age looked like.
If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at modern flying, enjoy this trip back in time. danto.info/Golden_Age-J...

#AI isn't coming for your job. It's coming for Google's job. And if AI keeps delivering answers faster and better, Google is going to need a parachute. And someone might need to drop Charlton Heston in from a helicopter just to keep things from crashing over there.

I'm worried about #Google's Project Starline-now #Beam. It's déjà vu. We've seen this movie before w/ #Telepresence and it doesn't end well.
As I see it, it has two huge problems: Promises and Scale. Take a look at my full write-up and let me know if you agree.

Q2- Meeting summaries are not productivity nirvana, and are in-fact dangerous for discovery, errors, etc.
Real #AI for meetings is in the audio algorithms for sound cleaning, cameras aiming themselves, automated room checks, etc.
