I'm curious, is that priority computed based on Mark's circle of friends? Or, are these values hard-coded / special-cased for the CEO, and potentially other individuals aswell?

sigh this is why I don't usually get involved in arguments about whether something is considered AI or not; it just devolves into people trying to define and redefine what the word 'AI' even means. Final word: I follow this stuff closely and read the research articles, and what we currently have is really great, but it's still just pulling the wool over your eyes. These techniques and algorithms trick you into thinki…
To be fair, I fool people into thinking I'm intelligent all the time.
"For assistants like Jarvis to be able to control everything in homes for more people, we need more devices to be connected and the industry needs to develop common APIs and standards for the devices to talk to each other." This.

Hey, I also work my ass off to the point of getting sick and I have accomplished nothing. By that I mean I have not made any money. I've listed some of my projects here and not even a single up vote. I don't like it but it is what it is. I'm simply trying to say that I'm no less ambitious, and that is probably true of a lot of us here. The gods of luck have simply not been on my side, yet.
It's very true that how hard you work doesn't correlate directly with success. That said, learning how to work hard is one of the best things you can do to become successful. Once you master that, you then have to learn from each experience. If some of the things you're doing haven't worked out, try to examine them and figure out where you went wrong. Feel free to post some here for others to chime in. Also, don't ne…

Could you explain your comment for us? I'd guess that maybe Canadians are known for leaving their homes unlocked??
I built something to similar this, using a Raspberry Pi, reverse SSH tunnels, Phillips Hue, Nest, and a range of sensors. Part of the project was an admin panel, to oversee the status/health of all the systems, as well as a manual control panel. My biggest concern was security. Granted, it was an internal network in my house, but if anyone got access to it, they had camera feeds, and practically full control of my ho…

And yet 30 years we could do all that with a whole lot of if statements. It would just return false positives a lot more. A couple of others have replied saying the same thing as you that this is 'AI', but it's not. As soon as you try to use it for something it wasn't programmed for, it fails. It doesn't even understand what it is doing right now. This isn't me 'moving the goalposts' either, we have literally never a…
You couldn't do face or voice recognition 30 years ago with if statements.
Say what you will about Zuckerberg, but this is a really cool project! Steps he took: 1. Connect his home devices (lights, thermostat, doors, music player, TV, CCTV etc) to his computer, so he can turn them on and off from it and in general automate his house from his PC. 2. Add an NLP component to his computer, so he could text instructions to it and it would apply the correct automation task. This can learn prefere…
(And world domination. The next step for the AI, obviously)
