Ok,say that it was technically legal. They misrepresented(lied) that there was no human in the loop. I’m fairly confident a judge would find them guilty of fraud as they literally admitted to fraud. Possibly wire fraud. Maybe you don’t care, I would be furious.

Ahh thanks for the correction. That seems like a terrible name choice too lol.

Except the part where they had an actual human listening in on what was considered privileged conversation. It is illegal in many places for a person to record or be on a call without the permission of both parties. Presumably AI Note-takers are only processing data. Think Dr. or lawyers, trade secs

TBF this was circa 2017 I think? I was still probably using GoToMeeting… it definitely didn’t generate notes. The idea was not novel, the tech wasn’t quite there yet. This guy just admitted he grifted vaporware with fraud until he could build it. That’s the real problem here.

They were all named “Alan” so they just shortened the name to “Al” which looks exactly like “AI”. No fraud was committed. /s

That sent me too. Imagine someone mentioning that while across the table from a VC. “Crypto what?”

A lot of these types of startups are just brute forcing bad ideas until one of them sticks.
If you work for a software company, you’ll find 1000 niches to fill that said company won’t. These guys were likely also employed at one when tanking the startups.

I’m not talking about people that have degrees. I’m talking about “academics” that go to college and never leave. Like this economist that is just learning the poverty line is not the poverty line has never set foot off campus. I have a lot of k-12 teachers in the fam. They know better than this.

Of course they do. They have “.ai” in the name.
Also, who is saying this company is worth a billion? They do “cloud automation” and don’t even show Azure or OCI on their website, which are deployed in some capacity in most of the enterprise these days.

“Folks” don’t wonder. They know. Academics are the ones wondering aloud in the hope they might get published.

No. It’s Gigabit and full duplex. Thicknet is shared access and relies on CSMA/CD. It is also designed for automotive use, so chances are most network engineers have ever even heard of it.

Also, good to see you pop up here. I’m the guy that was the FE that visited the IOL to help tend to WebNM for many years. I still talk about your networking skills!

RFC1925 gets almost as much mentions as RFC1918. Specifically “With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine.”. This is great when someone gets a dumb idea.

I still have an ST500 I pulled out of a ceiling and was still connected to a network via AUI (MR9000). I had worked at Cabletron years earlier and never got one. This launched a billion dollar company. The same people also ran it into the ground.

100VG-AnyLAN. I was always impressed that some engineer somewhere made Fast Ethernet backwards compatible with existing cabling. Also, BGP is brilliant. I don’t care how many problems people have had with it. It is the core of any serious network.

Also, every mandatory corporate training is the result of someone’s expensive fuck-up. BOA and JLL still have to pay their employees to take this training, and BOA only cares about BOA’s bottom line.

“mandatory compliance” is about completing the training within 30 days.
The things listed are not optional from a legal perspective. JLL/BOA is also responsible if employees don’t comply with legal requests from law enforcement. Basically it’s corporate insurance CYA.

You can still believe this and not be religious. It just wouldn’t a whole lot better coming from a church leader.

I think you need to carefully parse this. They are not asking anyone to allow unauthorized access or to provide any aid to ICE. They are telling people what they must legally do, presumably while clocked in and on the property. I think they should have added “lawful” into to the interference part.

This applies to all “good” people. All you really need is compassion, empathy, love, and a sense that we are all in this together. I would posit this is no more common among Christians than anyone else. Maybe less in some cases.

You’re totally right. The “deal” is to keep religion out of electoral politics and vice-versa. The red line there is not well defined.
That said, this guy has my respect and I am not going to drag other charlatans into the chat.

Don’t invite them to answer that question. I think we know. If you don’t, go read about Sophie Scholl.

It seems like everyone in the rich creep club is going to be in them. I wouldn’t underestimate the power of that club. I’m sure they fund more than half of the political donations made to congress. The only way it sees daylight is if it all gets leaked.
