"This is not an #intelligence I recognize.

What matters here, to me, is that the most advanced technologies, processes and businesses on the planet — #artificialintelligence and #machinelearning platforms built by IBM, Google, Microsoft, Amazon and others — are brought to bear on #fossilfuel extraction, production and distribution: the number one driver of #climatechange, of CO2 and greenhouse gas emissions, and of #globalextinction."

This section from @jamesbridle excellent #WaysOfBeing is one example of many insightful comparisons between the natural world and machine intelligence. Would highly recommend to anyone with an interest in artificial intelligence.
