This! Although I think the most likely failure considering the amount of money spent on the plant is that they probably dove head-first into automation and hit the integration challenges this can have. (Perhaps a business case of “on-shorin

What? Microsoft is one of the biggest players in the market in this space with Dynamics 365! I don’t have any data to back it up officially, but working in the space it seems like dynamics is taking customers from their competitors (eg SAP)

Saying it should have been Windows CE is just survivorship bias IMO - and we don’t know that they didn’t write documentation on the protocol or that it’s poorly understood - it might just have been easier and safer to emulate an app that ev

Also worth noting the impact/risk of leaking nuclear secrets would mean that if you thought there was a 1% chance someone was a spy you can’t ignore that.

Mostly the commercial model. We are fairly-lightweight users, and although only 2-4 people really use it (again infrequently) would like everyone in the org to have access to the sales pipeline and information.

Well I didn't really make a bold claim, I said "might", but presumably there is a reason why we teach kids basic mental maths before we teach them how to use a calculator. Humans are different to an AI, but putting that aside

It's the group apps where it's the issue though. Real example: My friend group has a hiking group on WhatsApp and there is one friend who is not on it. One person will propose a hike, and will keep messaging the group with informa

I don't think that's necessarily the case - e.g. "Let's share my car and you can help me clean it at the weekend" is a valid sharing arrangement (i.e. share the asset and share the effort to maintain).

Well the definition of sharing would be "to have or use something at the same time as someone else", so as you both have access to the data after the action and can both use it at the same time, I think sharing could be considered

It does have a lot to do with quitting WhatsApp - because WhatsApp is the platform that is the de-facto application for this in some parts of the world. Absolutely increases it's stickiness.

You are right - AGI does not need consciousness, and consciousness might not require general intelligence (a mouse is conscious but GPT-4 will beat a mouse at most 'general' intelligence tests).
