  • Sometimes good, sometimes superficial

    Sometimes it’s quite good but to often they don’t seem that well informed, more at only a superficial level. The recent show (markets gambling) they stated cloud computing is fully adopted as an example of the direction AI may follow. Sorry, what? Huge swathes of companies have no cloud compute or tiny amounts and many are starting to shift back due to costs and security concerns. As for AI well, more effort in checking guest statements would be good.
