      I'm not even going to tell them how and where what they are doing will go off the rails. It's not even worth the effort anymore. Sadly, many a person working in this and related fields are going to get nailed by the blow-back and feedback loops inherent in their approaches.

    A.I.

    Can someone explain exactly what is "Intelligent" about these A.I. Systems?

    And what exactly is "Artificial" other than they are not naturally occurring on this planet (or anywhere else as far as we know). Can it really learn on the job? Have these passed the Turing Test? etc etc

    Just anothe buzzword to sell crap and get uniformed PHB's to go to expensive conferences where they learn bugger all.

    Consider me unconvinced.

      It would be fun if they accidentally did produce a real A.I. and it slapped them down hard.

      It's artificial because the whole thing is based upon artifice.

      It's intelligent because they are obviously moreso than their client base.

    Taking the name of Moog in vane

    The name of their company sounds like a copyright infringement

      We asked, they were cool with it.

      Source: I work for Moogsoft. Our lawyers are busy enough without getting ourselves sued for no good reason.

      Also, we're not the only ones with an adjacent name. Once at the Excel, there were two trade shows going one, the IT one we were at and a mechanical engineering event on the other side of the hallway, and these guys were there: http://www.moog.com We exchanged stickers and other swag.

      Right now I'm going to knock off early so I can go home and play my Moog theremin. This is actually true, even though it's on the internet!

    If you have to much data...

    ... maybe you should collect _less_ data and tell your marketing department about it. Sure you'll have less data, but collecting less data gives you an edge over your competitors.

    BTW, it's not like you can legally collect data in Europe without knowing what to do with them.

      But, But, But

      it's a self justifying cycle. The more data there is the more people I need on my team to tell you crap about crap. Which generates more data which means that I , well you get the idea.

      Stopping the data flow will mean that My Empire , I mean my team is in jeopardy

    Well, they should not be collecting the data at all. Full stop!
