good for me, I work in AI systems and solutions, sales.

Ya know it's funny. 30 years ago , Artificial Intelligence meant the blond bimbo the drummer brought to the club that weekend.

Pretty sure AI can't do complex organic chemistry extractions so I think my job is safe.

I don't believe in A.I as it's sold to me. It's a programmed robot arm, there is no intelligence.

@rsm did you see they released a brand new Rhodes piano?

Every AI solution I've worked on either eliminated, reduced or simplified human worker tasks.



Yes, the new Rhodes were shown at NAMM...



and the 61 key stage prototype



I'm more of an organ player (then synths, then modular synths) than piano; though I did finally get my piano, the Korg Grandstage X, which has various grand, upright, Rhodes, Wurlitzers, clavinets, harpsichords, and more...





I sold my real Hammond and Leslie last year ('62 A-102 and matching Leslie 142

Yes, so in essence it is a robot arm. I don't know why they call it intelligence, it's just a programmed machine as evidence by the bias various systems display with regard to certain topics. So it's just an extension of the person who programmed it, not intelligent like the designer of the program. I haven't seen anything remotely resembling that and if I did, then it's a machine that is a demonic portal because the result of cold logic is death.

I just didn't know if you had seen that new Rhodes. I was surprised it looked pretty sweet. I def prefer organ myself, tone-wise. A B3-C3 or even the M3 and some of the L series are things of beauty.

Yeah, God kicked them out of the garden and it's been downhill ever since.

I mean dinosaurs were around for over 100 million years. I’d be surprised if humanity hits 1 million

Can AI fix failed hard drives in servers on site? Can AI install access points? Can AI rack and configure network switches and firewalls?
