Ten Things I Tend To Believe

 1.  I quizzed AI....from the Butler-shooting attempt on Trump....is there any evidence that Thomas Crooks (the dead shooter) ever met Maxwell Yearik (the missing guy)?  They lived within a 25-odd mile range of each other....but NO....AI could not find a single example of the two meeting face-to-face.

Where Yearik is today?  Unknown....but I'm guessing he's probably not alive.  This attempt to 'partner-up' between the two?  I tend to believe it's BS. 

2.  I'm pretty convinced that 30-percent of people in college today and getting a bachelor's degree shortly....will be unemployable by 2035 with this stupid degree.  How they will pay off the college loan deal?  Unknown, and probably the federal gov't will be stuck with tens of billions in useless degree BS.

Somewhere between 2035 and 2040....college will terminate around 50-percent of the instructors/professors....admitting the business plan no longer works.

3.  I tend to believe that 50-percent of all US activists...without USAID functioning....will be unable to sustain their lifestyles, and end up in dad's garage within three years....for the remainder of their lives.

4.  I believe by the end of 2027....at least a thousand men in the US...facing jury-duty....will let the judge/lawyers know that they are rogue-capable, and this will scare the crap out of the lawyers and judges involved.....disqualifying the rogue fellows.

5.  After watching this clip of Governor Gavin Newsom fishing....I'm of the mind that he's never fished in his life, and probably spent two weeks in the backyard....learning the basic steps.

6.  I tend to believe that if you questioned a hundred people.....asking about hoaxes....at least thirty folks can cite ten-plus events which they believe are hoax-type.

7.  My firm belief....MLB (major league baseball)....has at least 200 players who are way-over-paid, and simply boat-anchors for their team.

8.  I believe if you did a legit audit.....you'd find that 500,000 'foreign-agents' exist on US soil, and have influence not only over Congress, the President, and the Supreme Court, but reaches down into states, cities, and even school boards.

9.  I tend to believe....unless Saudi Arabia gets some 'help'....the Houthis crowd will actually take down the Middle East oil market, and leave the US, Russia and Venezuela as the 'winners'.

10.  I'm convinced that you could lay-off 50-percent of CNN's staff, and no one would really notice.  

All This Hype To Slow Down AI Development?

 I spent an hour or two yesterday reviewing the political hype to slow down AI development.  After a while....I realized it was mostly BS.

First, for the most part....I suspect it's already too late.  AI is in turbo-mode and the tech-crowd can marginally control what's going on.  

Second, within a year, I suspect that bank AI will develop tools that bank boards can use....identifying weak candidates for home, business or car loans....disqualifying them way ahead of schedule.  Wouldn't shock me if 40-percent of Americans find themselves 'cut-off' from loans.

Third, within a year or two....medical AI will be able to analyze cost factors/bills, and start to state 'crappy' deals or hospitals to avoid.  It'll also start to cite safety issues with hospitals and doctors.

Fourth, by the end of the 2027 baseball season....I see home-plate umpires replaced on balls/strike count....leaving AI to manage things.  

Fifth, daily audits by finance AI....will start to reveal fraud on massive levels.  

Sixth, educational AI will start to identify crappy teachers/professors...way ahead of schedule.  

Seventh, political AI will start to review/audit 'promises' within minutes of announcing them.  

Eighth, all these super-secret military programs will be audited by AI and various programs will be unable to remain secret.

Ninth, entertainment AI will identify crappy scripts/plot ideas.

Stalling or slowing AI down?  Too late.
