Smart, smarting, gone...

Look up this link.

How much 'smarter' do we need our phones to get?

And how much longer before these uber smart machines start thinking 'Why don't we just get rid of these dumb humans lumbering around like dinosaurs and still thinking they "own" us?'

Dear Sir,

Heard this somewhere :

Some guys went to a restaurant for lunch . Before placing the order , they stacked their cellphones on the table and set the following rule : the first one to check his smartphone pays the bill.

Thus they all enjoyed a nice meal without the notifications , and were surprised how impulsive smartphone checking could so easily be checked.

Regards,
Krishanu

Dear Sir,

The way these phones are intruding our lives has become ridiculous indeed. I see this everywhere: people hop on to a bus or get into the train or sit on a bench in the park, whip out their phones and start caressing the screens as if they were their lovers. I don't do that because I don't own one and I am jobless enough to notice such things. I saw a girl walking her dog, while she was looking into a screen. She'd be better off buying a seeing-eye dog. At this rate, all of us will become like those people in Wall-E.

" He acknowledged that some of the issues can wear a Genius down. ", was hilarious. I find it laughable that the technicians go by the title of Genius. How can any person call himself a genius? And how can there be so many geniuses at one place and so many worldwide?

Here's a very interesting article I came across:
