Google Now Adds Parking Reminder. Hey, SWMBO, where did we park? Are we in Villains or Heroes Lots? Mickey or Goofy? The only thing goofy around here is trying to find my car after a couple of single malts and a few miles of walking around.

However, I am always walking through the turnstiles when I remember that I didn't set the damn thing. Now, Google Now does it automatically....

Artificial Meaning
May 10, 2014
As artificial intelligences (AI) become more powerful and pervasive, communication by, with, and among AIs has become a common feature of everyday life. Early in the history of AI, there was ELIZA—a simple program that utilized simple pattern-matching algorithms to simulate a psychotherapist interacting with the user of the program. Human communication with AIs has been depicted in film and fiction, from the iconic confrontation of humans with HAL in 2001: A Space Odyssey to the very human...

May 9, 2014
The age of “big data” has come to policing. In Chicago, police officers are paying particular attention to members of a “heat list”: those identified by a risk analysis as most likely to be involved in future violence. In Charlotte, North Carolina, the police have compiled foreclosure data to generate a map of high-risk areas that are likely to be hit by crime. In New York City, the N.Y.P.D. has partnered with Microsoft to employ a “Domain Awareness System” that collects and links...
