The author may, unintentionally or not, be conflating terms. Just as all horses have a relationship to the category of animal, adaptive AI has a relationship to machine learning. As with horses, the opposite is NOT true. All animals are not horses, and old machine learning operations are not the same as adaptive AI, or even AI as a whole for that matter. Apple hopes to correct that by leaning into it for upcoming chip designs.

While Apple has used machine learning-based software, which is unable to adapt to unexpected outcomes, it hasn't yet used the idea of a system that can continuously learn and improve its chip design autonomously, aka Adaptive AI, for the task.

Business-wise, makes sense for the family organization to do this. Capitalize on popularity and make some money. 

No, it doesn’t make sense, because that’s unethical and wrong. It’s why we ask presidents to divest prior to coming into office. It only makes sense if one is void of ethics and doesn’t mind doing wrong. 

Is the president involved? I thought his family took it over in 2017. Or is the family not allowed to make a marketing connection to the fact that their father was and is the President? Donald Trump Jr. is not Donald Trump Sr. 

You thought wrong. Yes, the president is involved. He is enriching himself while in office, profiting from the very same industries which he affects with tariffs, executive orders and social media posts. He is doing crypto currency deals with foreign countries while making state visits.

So we are using British rules now?

No, common-sense. If it walks like a duck....

I still don't understand why anyone would prefer to manage their lights, heating, and curtains in one central spot in a big house, instead of in the individual rooms where those things are located. I can understand managing them from a watch or a phone that one always carries around, but a central fixed hub? But what do I know.

That's been my general experience with Google Home Hub. It's not that I NEVER use the home controls offered by the Hub, but it's so rare I would never buy one specifically for controlling home devices. That's done by voice 90% of the time. For that matter I rarely walk up to the Nest thermostats to adjust them, using voice there too.

But a Home Hub from Apple might be useful for other features such as watching TV, music videos, checking weather, following a recipe, making/receiving video calls, checking security cams etc, things I use Google's product for.  If Apple offers those things too I bet they'll have a huge success with it. But if the focus is home control I think the usefulness will be pretty limited. 

"I will just take you back to last Thursday," Mayor Bass told KTLA. "Last Thursday, there was nothing happening in this town that called for the raids that took place on Friday. Nothing was happening. Nothing warranted the raids."

"If you remember, at the beginning of this administration, we were told that raids would be to look for violent criminals, people who had warrants," continued Mayor Bass. "But I don't know how you go from a drug dealer to a Home Depot. To people's workplaces, where they're just trying to make a living."

What's happened to America in just 3 short months? We've gone from a peaceful and welcoming country to one where the current administration is looking for an excuse to declare martial law and pit our military against its own citizens. This in NOT what was promised, and 100% NOT what I voted for.

Okay...lots of weird things. 3 things - 

1- can a president just decide not to enforce a law? One where the stated reason is based on implied foreign manipulation?

2- The Dem's were idiots for passing this in the first place. The nature of the stated concerns are obviously ridiculous.

3- I don't have a 3 I guess...but this is really silly.

Yeah, blame the Dems.  Who instigated it?

“the Dems” - which includes Joe Biden - gave into sinophobia and helped make it a law.
