1976 Fiat City Car, designed by Giovanni Michelotti.
A progenitor of the Smart?
Kidding, of course. Strangely, I have an appreciation for the Fiats. I shouldn’t. But I do. First car I remember my parents having was a green, 4-door, 1974 Fiat 128. It was a four-speed manual. No AC. No stereo. Just a simple, functional car.
I made a stop at Walmart last night and I was again tempted to take in my opinion an ironic photo. I find it funny and interesting to see Amish horse and buggy parking at a Walmart. Every time I go I see at least one parked there. I feel rude taking the photo so I won’t.
I’ll share a few photos from when we visited the Amish House & Farm in Lancaster PA 2 weeks ago. I found this stop weird too because they plopped a Target right next to this old old farmhouse and tourist stop. The Littles made Amish jump ropes which they were thrilled with. They also loved the one room school house.
Microsoft’s experimental chatbot turned
into a Nazi in less than a day. ‘Tay’ was
designed to interact with and learn from
18 to 24-year-olds on social media, but
immediately had to be taken down
because within 24 hours it tweeted
“Hitler was right.” SourceSource 2
Is this what happens when a village raises a child?
Engineers: we must think very carefully about A.I. If this kind of thing somehow gets committed into some government android/killbot’s repository, extraordinarily bad things will happen to humanity.
