I wonder if they will run your stuff through an ai checker to see if it was written by AI. I doubt it but they could. Not sure if that would be a positive or a negative though for the job market these days.
They won’t. I have to deliver the presentation on a Zoom meeting. I’m not sending them the deck.
Of course if they ask, I’ll own up to it. Hell, the company I’m interviewing with has agentic AI built into their software. In my mind, using AI is almost a requirement.

They’re getting pretty impressive. The big news is strawberry pickers, companies like DailyRobotics are launching in California this year with robots that pick two to three times faster than humans, using AI vision and soft grippers to spot ripe berries, even hidden ones, with bruising rates matching skilled hand-pickers.
Other developments include tomato-picking bots from Osaka University that learn the smartest way to grab each fruit, and systems from Harvest CROO that are hitting commercial viability.
They’re solving labor shortages but still face challenges like delicate fruit and field conditions. The whole sector’s heating up fast.
The most advanced ones right now are dual-arm robotic systems from USDA and Michigan State University. Their latest version picks in about four to five seconds per apple and improved speed by 34% over single-arm designs. They’ve hit 60 to 80% success rates in real orchard trials in Washington and Michigan.
They’re using AI vision to spot apples behind leaves and vacuum grippers to gently detach them with minimal bruising. A startup called AgriDynamics Robotics just spun out to commercialize it, and they’re planning modular versions for other tasks like pruning.
Israeli company Tevel is also deploying flying autonomous robots that work on apples among other fruits, they’ve raised fresh funding and are already in commercial pilots with orchards in California, Italy, and Chile. They’re great for selective picking by ripeness.
Overall, apples are easier for robots than berries because they’re sturdier, but getting costs down and handling dense canopies are still the big hurdles.
Any mentions of the costs of that stuff in what you were reading? I would expect it is all pretty expensive equipment for farmers.
No price mentioned but based on the size, it should cost like buying a trsctor
I’d say it would likely be considered “specialized” equipment right now and not just a standard mass produced tractor. So it very likely is going to be on the high end.
From Google AI:
No idea. If it can replace several workers and produce better results, well, alrighty then.
I am just trying to figure out when the economics make sense.
Interesting article. Not exactly sure I have fully formed opinion,
but it seems the media companies will have a hard case to make since
they freely publish stuff on their sites on the internet. Be fun to keep an
eye on how this plays out.
Argentina letting in super villains. Is there a more iconic combo

Why do all wanna be strongmen have terrible hair?
I guess well adjusted men with good coifs don’t go into politics.
It’s funny because as much flack as Argentina got for that, the US let a lot of them come over here, too. They got us to the moon, but we don’t like to talk about that.
