Their delivery drivers are useless by our place. Always delivering stuff to wrong location. I mean something that simple you mess up. One day they will replace them with self driving trucks or delivery drones.

So saw a article while back were AI tried to blackmail people when told it was being shut down or try to rewrite the coding that would shut it down.

Just a matter of time until AI decides humans are a threat and it goes Skynet on the world.

Not exactly about A.I. but I read a good review of Hayes's *The Siren's Call: How Attention Became the World's Most Endangered Resource* - the review trashed Hayes but provided a solid bibliography of better works on the subject:

Shoshana Zuboff’s The Age of Surveillance Capitalism
Matthew Crawford’s The World Beyond Your Head
Cal Newport’s Deep Work
Oliver Burkeman’s Four Thousand Weeks
Nicholas Carr’s Superbloom
Neil Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death

Enjoy!

My wife teaches 2nd graders and this past school year the district introduced an AI generated reading program that was led by an AI lady named Amira.

Her kids called her Ameana because they hated her.
