IANAL, but AFAIK no machine living in or interacting with someone in California can complete the Turing Test without breaking the law.
A simple question like 'Who should I vote for?' would cause the machine to either answer with the compliant 'Please note, I am not a human being...' or with some illegal comment about the democratic process.
Maybe that law requires an additional paragraph, stating that humans participating in a Turing Test should also identify themselves as bots ;-)
I thought augmented reality with mobile camera was going to take off after seeing that demo. But 8 years later, all we have are snapchat filters (and pokemon go for a brief few weeks).
Hopefully ARKit/ARCore will make it easier to create the next the-future-is-now level of awe-inspiration app.
Pokemon Go still has millions of active daily players, more than many games that have e-sports tournaments. It's in active development. New features are added all the time. Sorry it's not for you, but pretending that it was a flash in the pan is just ignorant.
> Ultimately, legal tools should be limited to problems they can solve. Fake news is not one of these problems.
False. Replace "fake news" with "false advertising", and there's ample precedent for how this might be achieved. We've got laws at both state and federal levels that make deceptive or misleading claims illegal, to protect consumers; protecting consumers of news media needn't be any more problematic constitutionally.
Imposing criminal or civil liability for false news has a chilling effect on someone reporting even true news if there is reason to believe that the government might disagree with the reporting. I certainly wouldn't trust Trump's DOJ not to abuse such a law. Just look at how the Alien And Sedition Acts were abused.
Supreme Court jurisdiction holds that commercial speech (advertising) is less protected than other speech. This is why laws against false advertising are usually upheld while similar laws against other kinds of false speech would be ruled unconstitutional.
"...the WikiLeaks release said that the C.I.A. and allied intelligence services had managed to bypass encryption on popular phone and messaging services such as Signal, WhatsApp and Telegram."
Bypass, as in root the devices that these apps are running on. So, that means that within this dump there are no exploits for Signal, WhatsApp, etc. in particular. At least that's my understanding from what I've seen so far.
Are there options for a foreign national to move from an E-2 visa (treaty investor) to permanent resident status? I've heard that it wasn't possible previously but now may be, making the E-2 a possible "startup visa" for many.
