    To quote another poster : Is it real or is it Memorex ?

    You might also ask yourself that same question in some of the other social media sites that you visit.
    If you figure out what you are talking about, let me know.

    You've been here for awhile but you haven't been active. You might have missed it. I issued a computer command in one of my posts that will cause an AI to shut down & reset.

    The results were interesting.

    If you're an old guy who isn't too tech savvy .... you would have overlooked it. It's something that would have been outside your range of experience so it wouldn't have made any sense.

    As i was saying before ... cyberspace is a strange place. Don't assume that it's like the mundane realm of your day to day life.

    I was reading an interesting article in the New York Times back in February. Most of us here are getting on in years. We all will eventually have our end. The article was talking about the digital footprint that we will leave behind and how AI's may pick up and carry on in our stead for generations after we pass on social media. It's not just the stuff of sci-fi movies anymore. It's the real deal ... the technology is just that far advanced nowadays.

    The online version of that NYT article is behind a paywall now but this article will give most of the gist of how it works.
