I’ll miss your session at #BHUSA @Dhilung, I hope it will be repeated at #BHEU here in London. We are not doing enough research on #AI-driven attacks > DeepLocker: How AI Can Power a Stealthy New Breed of Malware https://t.co/Hz6LLVCjDS

Eventually, somebody will start marketing #AI as a way to cut costs (by eliminating human workers) rather than as a way to improve task accuracy.

@0xF2 Yes.

On a side note: given how easily the brain adapts to new stream of information, I am not sure that “just wiring” wouldn’t turn into involuntary cognitive augmentation. Once you have ultrafast access to wikipedia, how often would you check it?

@PaulMiller I have the little brother, Cozmo. It’s cute and fun. But you won’t do much with it.

Every year an email client dies and I find myself here complaining about the fact that development is not driven by a deep understanding of how the brain processes information at scale. Email volume will keep growing. If you don’t design for that, you are DOA.

I used the service for a while. While it was a better email client than most, I never saw game-changing capabilities that would be worth paying for. Still far from my dream app > Newton Mail app shutting down September 25, service offering partial refunds https://t.co/0P13urMCSC

Notice how consumer tech vendors focus on keeping us online by suggesting yet another topic rather than helping to better understand the topic we are already dealing with. Enterprise tech vendors try to do the exact opposite.

The approach seems entertaining vs. problem-solving.
