If they did, would either of them realize it is talking to another machine? What would two machines talk about? Could we give them a general topic, then see where the discussion drifts? Perhaps the topic would be as interesting and chaotic as ExI discussions, which morph quickly and unpredictably. Which machine would catch on first? How fast would the conversations be?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The reason I changed the subject line: we recognize that news organizations filter news according to their own viewpoint of what news is worth printing. But what if… we had a fixed camera/microphone watching and listening to something, offering it up via livestreaming, without filtering or commentary. That would be like being there. I think we could do this: the equipment would be privately owned with the message going out to all. I do want to see how things are going in the CHAZ area, specifically how they are getting supplies in there, and if they are getting in there in sufficient quantities to support the locals and guests.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We capitalists have been generally unsuccessful in dealing with the growing problem of homelessness. Do let us see if those who took over CHAZ are any more successful than we are. If they fail too, perhaps we can get two Google Duplex systems to discuss the problem and find new solutions we carbon units never discovered.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>spike<o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></body></html>
