Here 's one more. I wear glasses for my bad eyesight. I have sunglasses that have the same value of correction. Sometimes, in the summer, when I’m out and I don’t think I’ll go inside anywhere, I leave my normal glasses are home.

So then, when you stop unexpected for groceries, you look like a douchebag with your sun glasses on, but you can’t really take them off because you don’t see shit without them.

I always say there are drivers out there who only survive by the grace of other drivers.

Don’t worry, Google and Apple already know this…but so far we can only hope they will never agree to do something like that.

And if they do, nobody will know about it anyways.

There are people who did not stand at the front of the line when intelligence was gifted . But that guy wasn’t even invited at all…

Because a machine is expected to do it right the first time. Because it’s supposed to do the exact same thing everytime with the exact same input parameters. If you give it the exact same input every time and you get a different result every time it is not reliable to function as automation.

Humans are just that. Humans. They make mistakes sometimes. The reason humans can keep doing the work is that there is no better alternative. Machines can’t do it, so who else is gonna do it? Either humans build your house or nobody does. There is little choice there.

So if a machine is to take over that job, it better do it right and reliable and cheaper.Because humans can already do it right and reliable. And there’s little money saving if a human still needs to check all the work.

Well, why did it not do it right the first time then? If the doublecheck gives a different result, then which is the right result? If I can ask the same question twice and I get two different answers, how I or the machine known which is the right answer? And if the machine knows, then why would it need to doublecheck? A machine can do it right the first time if it knows how, right?

Yea, well…for the heavy lifting it could be nice. But I’m not letting AI build my house.

Lifting heay crap to the roof or something like that? Sure. That is what machines are good at.

Welding? Well welding robots have existed for long time, they just need to programmed perfectly. I’ve worked with a couple of them, the results are not always consistent and they required some quality checks. It is easier. Manual welding takes more skill and takes longer. I just don’t need the AI part though. That makes it unpredictable. And if I let a robot do something, it should be predictable.

I do woodworking and fixing around the house. Even when building new stuff, there are always issues that you have to solve on the spot. Walls that are not straight, angles that are not perfect, spaces you cannot reach et cetera.

As long as AI does not get it 100% right every time it is not touching my house. And yes, a professional doesn’t reach that rate either, but at least they know and doublecheck themselves and know how to fix things.

A piece of double sided tape might be enough if it is not that heavy. Just make sure to take slow passed and not too much at a time.

If it is really small I’ve been know to just hold it against my orbital sander, just be careful for your fingers.

I don’t know if you have a router available? If you can make a leveling jig that you can run the router over, flattening is easy.
