 @aff773f4 Does "frontier of AI capability" mean it had enough data to scrape and regurgitate grape-juice plus? 
 @30353100 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 
 @30353100 P.S. When I see any of Big Three (MBB) consulting companies involved (BCG in this case) I just can't take any info without pile of salt. 

P.S. In general, I'm strongly prejudiced and biased against MBB and AI. 
 @aff773f4  I enjoy Barry Smith AI.  Stream analysis has it's place; however, mostly I am biased as well, particularly since it seems humans are unwilling to seize agency in their own maps and telemetry... somewhere to start and a goal to reach.  The dominant AI version is wasteful and ridiculous.  (Kind of like how blockchain might possibly be interesting and useful... rsyslog's merkle trees for instance ... but it completely dies in the dominant version.) 
 @30353100 My reasons against AI lie somewhere between those lines.
