…To describe ‘AI’ as a ‘revolution’ bestows power and gravitas on a set of technologies that are indeed disruptive, but are not a forgone conclusion. The Industrial Revolution encompassed many innovations and socio-political changes. It seems to me that an era change can only be applied in retrospect once you can see the whole impact — so I’m afraid that describing ‘AI’ as a ‘revolution’ immediately turns on my BS alarm and I’ll be less inclined to believe what you say #SmellsLikeASalesPitch

@emilymbender@dair-community.social Thank you for your confidence backed up by sound academic reasoning and references that actually exist 😎

@jimgar Tree inspired gymnastics is a perfect! 😂 There was a fair speed to the skid. Serves me right for trying to eat a pretzel and run at the same time. Some little woodland critter will have enjoyed their pretzel snack though!

@jimgar thank you Jim - that is very kind of you ✨. I know that this assistance dog will make a big difference for Skye and her family 🐕
