I'm sure those experts would only accept jobs like this a very small percentage of the time and only for very large amounts of $$$. Otherwise they're not just loosing out on their expertise, they're loosing out on life

There might be a market for this with high end consultants or psychiatrists as a more secure alternative to signing an NDA. It'll be something similar to the movie Paycheck You give the consultant the drug, then proceed to share your

If there is a pay gap, I suspect it's at least partially determined by a person's tendency to negotiate salary. There are many articles about how salary negotiation is crucial when applying for a job, yet many women and men often

tldr: At first making web pages and writing blogs was hard and tedious. So very few people did it and we had awesome things like "the big red button that doesn't do anything" Now, making blogs is easy so millions of people do

Not sure why you're being down voted here. This is a valid guess and disagreeing with it shouldn't mean auto-downvote

Book a room at the Marriott, go in, rip the sheets off the bed, check the manufacturer on the mattress tag, go buy your mattress from them. (And enjoy the rest of your night in the hotel)

How different is that from a new prison guard being pressured by their supervisor or co-workers to be tough on prisoners? It indicates that a bad situation can be created by bad management, and a new person introduced to an existing bad sy

Thanks for the reply. It sounds like your argument is "we should minimize the pain in the world" which could make sense when it comes to humans eating animals. Two counter questions come to mind though: 1. What if you could kill

I'm curious, how to vegans like you square away the idea that it's horrible for humans to eat animals vs it's okay for other animals (like lions) to eat animals? Genuinely curious since I understand you points but it doesn&#x

Everyone doesn't have to use Duplex, everyone would have to use a system that allows it to seem like a human is talking to the other person, provided you limit the context to a particular domain (like taking reservations). This syste

You first need "ye old barber shop" and "big corp barber shop" to all agree on what this common API should be. That's the old standards proliferation problem https://xkcd.com/927/ Which is wha

Not necessarily. Given the rate of progress in AI and the number of companies working on it, it's only a matter of time until Duplex-like tech is reimplemented by other large corps like Amazon and Microsoft, and eventually it'll c

Also, in the WeChat model, everyone is tied to WeChat and can't go around it. This voice based model can be integrated into any existing system. It already has the network effect going for it and it's not tied to the fate of any

It's not just about the user. There's no open, universally agreed upon booking system API...except for human voice. This is creating a natural-language based booking API that any system or business can tap into

As crazy as it seems at first glance, a double Duplex system would be a really beneficial result. What stops businesses from setting up Apis from scheduling services today? It's the lack of a universal API. If a barber shop wants to m

Lol, but if you think about it, what stops businesses from doing this today? It's the lack of a universal API. If a barber shop wants to make it possible for a 3rd party app to book appointments then they have to release some API. But
