Steve’s Barking; Mom said, put your money in the bank

 

Mom said, put your money in the bank and don’t invest it because you might lose it and the bank gives you interest and is insured.

 Mom came through the depression and that was the thinking of many a person who lived through the depression.

 One of my uncles on the other hand said invest, it gives you better returns. Look at the balance sheet, it should tell you if it’s going to go out of business. Also most of the stocks I ( meaning himself) invest in pay dividends that are greater then the interest you will get from the savings account from the bank.

 Being a good son I took and are to the present day  is taking my mom’s advice, because of this I’m sure I missed out on many a great opportunity ( in the present day) too make oodles and oodles of money..

 I may also have lost out to loose my shirt if the other investors decided to pull out.

Steve’s Barking; Nothing blog

I recently sent a blog that had zero on it. This only goes to prove that this blogger is just like the recent  presidents of the United States I’m senile.

 The real reason this blog had nothing on it was I was trying to take a  picture of a children’s book that with the help of my family I wrote, If We had no letters.

 I am truly sorry to the two people who saw this nothing blog. Yes I better be careful that I don’t publish nothing ever again, even though some one who reads my blog maybe believe everything I write is about nothing.

 

Steve’s Barking; Can AI save itself?

 

Wtf can AI save itself?

Why would anybody say such a stupid thing?

Well AI needs plenty of water and the Hubs are running out of water.

 AI also needs electricity and at least in the United States electricity were the hubs are electricity is becoming scarce.

So this not to bright blogger is wondering can the smartest man made invention think of a way of saving itself and mankind living near those hubs.

Steve’s Barking; Texas , no water anywhere

 I understand many a person are or are considering to move to Texas because it’s a cheap place to live because of a low tax rate. Now I also understand there is a major drought in Texas. I also understand that Texas is encouraging AI data center to come on down even though these AI data centers need a Stupendous amount of water. 💧 

There are two things that bewilder me. (1) Were in Texas are these AI centers going to get all the water that it’s going to need. (2) Are the people whom go to Texas because of Taxes willing to dehydrate for the lack of water 💧🤔 to not pay high taxes?

*************************************************************************************

 Are those companies making a mistake to relocating factories to Texas with the lack of water and a collapsing electrical grid.

Steve’s Barking; To sum, cut back in income is the same as inflation

 

 Most of us don’t think of it, especially those who just look at the price of goods and service, but to many of us the cutting of income, weather it’s from the pay, your pension, Social Security, or even mentally the loss of value of investments ( mentally) your ability to purchase and or save is reduced. This is the same as  if the price of goods  and services rises, this to the consumer is the same as inflation.

 The reason I’m writing this is because us retires in the not to distant future will be hurt by the reduction in the moneys we get from Social Security and this will be the same as the cost of goods and services rise.

Steve’s Barking; AI …..Predator or dud?

 

I keep hearing that AI ( artificial intelligence)  in robots and computers can out think humans and actually do things only animals can do and that is reasoning and thinking. These things ( I don’t know what else to call them ) can out think us humans and if we’re not careful they will take over the world, kind of like the movie predator ( The Arnold Schwarzenegger movie) and we humans will become obsolete.

 Now I understand that there is a minority train of thought that AI can only go so far and then it will soon reach it capacity that it will just be able to calculate faster us humans and help us manipulate are thinking by movies and photos. That in the next couple of years this will hit a stone wall.

 Now this blogger is bright enough to figure what is next and I’m one of those who use AI only to look up facts that may or may not be manipulated by humans and or machines.
