I read (or mostly skim) The Communications of the ACM (CACM). I almost always stop to read the question and answer page by George Neville-Neil a.k.a “Kode Vicious”. It’s usually a deep topic on software or system development and the writing is usually a bit cynical and more than a bit humorous. KV seems to be a guy who has Seen Things. Today he gives his take on Artificial Intelligence (AI). Summary: it’s another software tool / technique that will automate some things. That is what software always does. A good read.
