Max Kennerly: I am currently soliciting $100 million in backing for my new AI* company, "ExpertAI," which will reliably provide answers on every subject. * It's not AI, it's literally just grad students paid $40/hour to answer stuff. ** Which will still be cheaper to run than all this bullshit.

Shit gimme 40$ an hour and I’ll do whatever

Fun fact: that Alexa you ask for the weather? I do stuff like that to be paid Pennies a day as part of Amazons Mechanical Turk program.

The only problem with that plan is that the graduate students won't be able to use Google to find the answers.

Yeah, a mechanical turk would be more efficient

Can this be a real thing, please? Writing means research and I'd sleep much easier knowing a well-paid grad student is on call to help.

How will you also burn down the planet tho ?

Isn't that how encyclopaedias got written? In the sixties, if not earlier? 😉

Mine's called "TedAI" *Same concepts but it's just a bunch of people named Ted who do the answering.

I used to be a grad student; am I still eligible for this program?

I too can create a fake company based on Iain M Banks’ Culture series.

$40/hr are you just trying to burn the VC money? #MinimumWageOrBust

For sure it will be more accurate
