Finished up attending a state preparedness conference this last week. The keynote speaker who has a PhD in '#AI in #EmergencyManagement'. What entailed was a nearly two hour-long ad for ai and robots. The what now feels old shtick of 'if you don't hop onto the planet-burning bandwagon, you'll be left behind. Robots will run shelters and do all #SAR.'
It's a whole lot of can kicking and subservience to corporations. We consumers are having to deal with higher energy costs due to decisions made by few people in largely rural counties.
