The Bell Curve says that behind every extraordinary genius is someone equally extraordinarily stupid.

I think America had a lot of really brilliant geniuses.

余裕

余裕がない時には
まず深呼吸。
息を深く吸って
10を数えて
ゆっくりと
ゆぅくりと
吐く。
10
9
8
7
6
5
4
3
2
1
ここで、息を吸わずに
また10吐けますか？
ここで余裕を求めても
苦しくて当然です。

なぜなら、
「余裕」は誤字です。
現実の世界では
「余す」なんかしません。

余裕がない時は、
頭の中で
大きな
大きな、大きな
「予裕」を
想像して
息を吸ってください。
ここからが第一歩です。

YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, everything is running on AI nowadays and it's getting a little annoying for two reasons: 

(1) they don't learn fast enough to catch up with expectations 

Google board was amazing when i just started using it. But i realized its extremely dependant on me obeying rules like gliding over the actual characters i need. I was set up to expect it to read squiggles in a doctor's prescription but it's not getting there. 

(2) they predict what I'd want based on my history

My YouTube feed is spoilt. There are genres i like but i don't like watching things that are too similar. And i enjoy finding things i never thought I'd watch just like when you channel flip on a TV. But i keep getting the same (identical) videos on my feed - and i tend to remember videos I've watched even when YouTube doesn't. 

Probably because the AI was set up to maximize YouTube's or Facebook's or whatever service's experience of me rather than my experience of them. 

But also maybe these two are the inevitable fingerprints of current AI technology. When you feel like "something's just a little off in the most annoying way" maybe it means somebody's using AI.
