Computers writing articles

This is a "digital news source" that, apparently, harvested articles that mention UConn and smooshed them into some gobbldygook. I hope we're not looking at the future.

Thompson Hat Trick Lifts UConn Past BU

Yes, this article is talking about UConn hockeymenshoopswomenshoops. Just bizarre.

Read a few Asimov "sci fi" books and articles on artificial intelligence and get very afraid. Very rich tech industry leaders are scared of AI. We all should be. Of course, HAL would assure you there is nothing to worry about!

MIT 30 or so years ago believed they could use "artificial intelligence" programming --for all human (almost) functions. At the time they believed they could replicate the brain. Problem is programming is limited by the programmers. Even systems that program themselves rely upon a human to direct their programming--so maybe we are saved from the machines taking over the world--Signed--Hals brother.\
If you really want to be frightened--read the Shadow Factory--a true, non fiction, start to today about NSA--not what they do but what countries are helping.

Nah, not worried about NSA up here on my hill, well stocked with firearms and ammo! Maybe I should look into armed drones though, huh!

PS. Do you think I hit enough key words to cycle into the top 300,000,000 "got to check it out" e-mils, posts etc of the day??? Oh, wait, let's add AK47 and AK74! Maybe the smiley face will throw them off???

NSA isn't the worry--it's the Governments they work with who build and install snoopers. Personally I like NSA. (like a wooden cross that wards off the bad ghosts)
