Re:Germany’s plan for AI might divide Europe on Friday November 16, 2018 @07:54PM (#18473204)
This AI hype is getting really annoying. It's sad how political decisions and allocation of budgets are basically just based on the trend. It's like kids wanting a toy just because some other kids have it. Instead of having long term visions, building solid technologies one by one, Europe just throw cash at the latest cool thing and of course it gives nothing. It's like the Human Brain Project, there was some hype in neuroscience so EU just threw cash at it & nothing came out of it. Now everybody forgot about it, nobody speaks of it & nobody cares because the trend has passed
Re:Google accused of 'trust demolition' over health app on Wednesday November 14, 2018 @10:31AM (#18450567)
Google is taking over everything and has the mindset of the most evil big brother you could imagine. And yet you hope they will just nicely make sure no correlation is done between you and your health data ?

I don't get how people still try to defend Google. When you see what Google is doing with our data, they should be prohibited from accessing any health information on us. Google has just proven themselves to be one of the most data-angry and unethical company of the moment.
