but I don't completely agree about A.I..
I don't think A.I. has lived up to the hype and there are some ways that it has been utilized by some. I'm not a fan, but I think it has it's uses that can benefit humans as long as humans control it and not the other way around. I'm also not sure the benefits outweigh the costs and environmental impact.
