[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1871812, member: 96226"] This is exactly what fueled NTT Domoco's founding. That gave rise to companies like mine, Google, Apple, Facebook and others that walk the razors edge between acceptable privacy compromises and totally unacceptable privacy compromises. Docomo's founding principle is in their name, Do Communications over the Mobile network and it means "everywhere" in Japanese. Their Ubiquitous group's entire reason for life is (and their founder has stated this) cause a fundamental shift in how people do things causing the methods to move to online systems which are accessed by personal, internet connected digital mobile computers (aka smart phones). It takes a lot of data yes, but the technologies that Docomo and my company make enable the Google/Apple/Facebook types of the world to leverage truly vast data sets which is closing the gap between the kind of man-in-the-loop training one had to give AI software like that that runs a self-driving car 2 years ago versus what it has to be hand-fed today. DNADave is dead nuts right, current AI is impressive but not that scary in its own right (well, some individual systems are but for why they do what they do, not what they actually do). It's the efforts of Docomo's Ubiquity group and others that work at the industrial & infrastructure levels that is reducing the man-in-the-loop training requirement by supplementing it with truly BIG data sets which only grow bigger as more things move into the Docomo ideology. I am willing to bet that probably fewer people on this site than I have fingers have even ever heard of NTT Docomo. That's the problem. People don't understand the technology they carry around with them. I've always thought it a bad idea to have tools that you are not capable of controlling in your possession. It's asking for trouble. The whole world has moved to where everyone is carrying around things that are immensely powerful and which they have on average zero understanding of.
