I'm watching an AI agent right now learn to play Texas Hold'em and after 75,000 hands, starting with zero knowledge, it plays about as well as some of my friends. What should I try to teach it next?

That is 1) to prevent fraud (see "check kiting") and 2) so the holding institution can collect the interest for the day. This is not a technology problem. Blockchain won't change either of these.

I've thought about taking money, not because I need the money, but because I am interesting in tapping some expertise. However, it has always been unclear how much expertise is exchanged for startup capital.

Problems are the opposite side of the coin from benefits. People often confuse benefits. They think they equate to features. A benefit is an increase of something good, or a reduction of something bad. A problem is the existence of not enou

I think they didn't want to make it a PR piece for the parent company. DeepMind had developed a lot of the tech before getting bought.

Same thing. Got the shot. Got the flu. It was annoying but didn't need a trip to the doctor or hospital. A friend without shot who got the flu at the same NYE party as I did ended up needing to go to the doctor to get tests and tamiflu

I was at an exhibit of natural light wet plate work recently and got to chat with the artist. Really interesting stuff. So many parts of the process are inexact and difficult to measure that you never really know what is going to happen on

Good luck! One more vote in the senate and they can pass a bill to do this. It seems the major providers are holding off on any large changes until they feel it is safe from political blowback. I find this interesting.
