There are Android e-Readers, like Boox, but that does not imply it is easy to do fun stuff. Seems pretty locked down. I have a PocketBook myself, no complaints there and you can install software (at least I can on the one I have but it is a few years old now) and thus never had the need to hack the thing.

One of the biggest commodity trading companies is in Minnesota (Cargill), where I would think that commodities are a prediction market too: They predict the harvest and relate that to a future price. Also there are quite some real estate investors in Minnesota, also due to tax arrangements. Wonder how that will pan out.

What I see use an immense amount of bugs and security issues that can be found much easier now then even before, because of AI. Also I see less trust in using AI in direct coding, because there are many examples of code additions that breach the safety of software in enterprises. Now to solve this, it requires for actual humans to do coding. And with that, it is probably true that more use of AI in coding leads to more SE's required to oversee ensure security. I personally see the big benefit of AI tooling to be in testing, security checking, documenting, etc. rather then coding itself.

It can be combined with rules as a pre-condition. For example: I have a CC box where mail is moved to where I am in CC. As I am mentioned in CC, I do not expect immediate action is required, and I will postpone the activity of reading or other action for that mail and 999 out of 1000 times it will resolve itself. Now this is a very easy and clear example of a rule, but there are many like this to manage the workload to manageable levels. It allows me to work part-time for multiple customers, while often being more productive then full time employees.

Or do things that actually work. Why, for example, can I not translate a PowerPoint using Copilot in Powerpoint? Why do I need to save it, then upload it into ChatGPT, translate it, then download it again, and open it in PowerPoint for further editing. But at the same time get all kind off nonsense I don't want pushed at me in Windows, like that MSN news clickbait crap.

I think what he does is thinking in possibilities, just what an entrepreneur should do.

I had a discussion yesterday with someone that owns a company creating PowerPoints for customers. As you might understand, that is also a business that is to be hit hard by AI. What he does is offer an AI entry level option, where basically the questions he asks the customer (via a Form) will lead to a script for running AI. With that he is able to combine his expertise with the AI demand from the market, and gain a profit from that.

Nice tech! Would be great if this can also work on factual data, like design drawings. With that it could be used for BIM and regulatory use. For example to showcase to residents how a new residential area will look that is planned. Or to test the layout of a planned airport.

Because there is a huge market for resume builders and career guidance where AI can play a role. Using LinkedIn you can measure success and network performance and correlate that to the resume and posted content.

Of all this amazing stuff, I learned today they were considering using solar panels on a zeppelin in 1936. I really though solar panels were from the 1980’s onwards.

This does need the context that you would communicate much more with your hive then just death and weddings. You need to build a relation with them. Ask permission to enter the hive, take good care of them, all that. And yes, there are people (like me) that still do it that way. And yes, I do think our bees / colonies recognise me and my wife as their keepers.

If you ever went 4x4 driving, you use driver / passenger to indicate the direction someone has to go to. This is because the navigation often is done from someone standing outside the car, where using left/right can be rather confusing.
