    Delving into the great philosophical questions of our time with @Brett_Jay at #localhostAU. https://t.co/t6NqQTFRXV


    Do the young people not use the term “wireframing” anymore? Serious question. #localhostAU


    @malynmawby That’s good. It seems like a lot of designers these days just go straight to finished, glossy UI without intermediate steps.


    @localhostAU @diversionary He’s also famously a clone of my husband. 😳 https://t.co/Juj9SnatL4

    @triblondon Perfect. Haha, that will be me tomorrow! 🙂


    Final bowl of Bourdain-approved noodles on this trip – Mak’s Noodles in Hong Kong! https://t.co/Iuqctuwh4h https://t.co/2k262za3td


    @gilmae Ooof. I hope it wasn’t too hot? The humidity here is what killed.


    Can’t believe I forgot to get a selfie with @awgreen to send to @themaninblue! 🤦‍♀️


    @themaninblue @awgreen I was actually highly complimentary! If he ever ends up working at Canva, I’m claiming referral bonus. 😉


    Saw a fat baby on the street in Hong Kong today and briefly turned into Wonder Woman. “OH, A BABY!” 👶🏼 (Why is there not a gif of that yet?)

    @cbetta I’ve had far too little sleep to even muster a groan at that one.

    The APAC Innovation Summit on Robotics and Embedded AI is kicking off with welcome remarks from robot Albert Einstein. 😳 https://t.co/cWiRdJU6Yd


    Kaz Soto from Google telling us about the many ways machine learning is used there – including saving energy in data center cooling systems. https://t.co/hF3HRC5uCF


    Kewpie (mayonnaise people) used ML and TensorFlow to spot bad potato cubes! Worked best when computer made sound to alert human sorter. https://t.co/OoCnD7Kjq7


    Robert Morris from IBM Research telling us about history of their AI efforts with Go, backgammon, chess – and Jeopardy. (Hi @KenJennings!) https://t.co/i10Rd8uQpm


    Watson gave some bad answers – like thinking Toronto was US city. You can’t risk those errors when using AI to diagnose cancer. https://t.co/LLdwy8oe8f


    AI creates efficiencies – reducing wasted medical treatments that don’t work (est at 50%); giving loans to folks w/out credit history. https://t.co/PsRr2DrSOW


    AI doesn’t have to result in middle-class job losses, “hollowing out” of middle that leads to “electing politicians who do crazy things…”


    As you may imagine, there was a big chuckle at that.


    Watching a demo of Clinicbot. 😳 https://t.co/aRlh4Gi0AN


    Listening to @DanitGal from @IEEEorg talking about ethical considerations of AI. v1 of standard is here: https://t.co/gSPRpH6SuS https://t.co/JTvpMvglmO


    Goal of ethical standards for AI – moving beyond both fear and uncritical admiration for technological advancement. 👏 https://t.co/Utn19ebcAj


    An AI learned to lie to people when playing poker. What happens when a medical AI is incentivised to lie to humans?


    “Ethics” vary based on culture and religion. @IEEEorg’s goal with standards to to provide a method for engineers to think about consequences


    What happens when humans aren’t in decision making loop? Imagine combat robots fighting in tunnels, with no connection to controllers…


    @starbuxman What is it?? I can’t see it on iOS Tweetdeck, Twitter app, or Twitter web. 😭


    @starbuxman 😍😍😍😍


    Dr. Deepu Talla from @nvidia walking us through the Big Bang of modern AI in the past 5 years. https://t.co/d2RF6rC3Nl

    When can I get a service robot that loads the dishwasher?! Turns out their are some key challenges we haven’t cracked yet. https://t.co/5OzQnfIHOE


    BeachBot – autonomous robot that creates large scale beach art! How charming. 😍 https://t.co/Yip7Cmr2AC https://t.co/hkuqJatw55


    So neat – @Wingtra is a drone that combines best aspects of helicopter and airplane. https://t.co/Rjtpjl8eHn https://t.co/d0Gkqf7frL


    @k_c_madden Definitely not cuddly!


    @jstangroome Hopefully the IEEE can publish a standard on that and declare my husband wrong for all eternity. 😂


    In most countries so far, more robots = lower unemployment. The jobs robots are doing are dangerous, dirty, or dull. https://t.co/KSLPrDu10z


    @AmanAlam She showed graphs from a lot of different countries, but I didn’t get a snap of the slide.


    @AmanAlam I found an essay that includes the graph she showed: https://t.co/tg8AOOrmrv


    @AmanAlam Scroll down to “So, do robots displace human workers? This turns out to depend on what country you’re talking about…”


    @AmanAlam India not shown though, and I don’t have FT sub to see the original data.


    @rbtcollins I found an essay that includes the graph she showed, which has some add’l context: https://t.co/tg8AOOrmrv


    @MichelePlayfair I wondered that too. I’m guessing 🍪 don’t work. 😂


    @candeira @MichelePlayfair Well, sure, if you’re going to legit answer the question and ruin my joke.
