So since cars roll on roads...we drive roads?

we drive ON the road. The road is not a part of the car, and is not necessary for the car to operate.

Software is run on computers, and computers do nothing without software.

But since you think AI has nothing to do with computers...

You apparently can't see the difference between a simple or complex piece of coding and actual machine learning...and you're supposed to be the smart guy

Portland and Walmart now this. Overpriced hippie food will not be missed

I think they should take the same approach as has been suggested for schools. Let's arm the grocery workers.

Another step towards transhumanism:

A Knee Replacement That Talks to Your Doctor? It’s Just the Beginning.

As a ‘smart knee’ that transmits data rolls out, medical specialists and engineers predict sensors will be added to artificial hips, shoulders and spinal implants

I just hope I last long enough for bionic limbs. They're talking about nanobots that could be injected and reverse aging. Sign me up.

Or actually enforce laws...maybe if those "don't steal too much" local regs didn't exist...

Let's try again:
Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, as opposed to intelligence of humans and other animals. Example tasks in which this is done include speech recognition, computer vision, translation between (natural) languages, as well as other mappings of inputs.
AI applications include advanced web search engines (e.g., Google Search), recommendation systems (used by YouTube, Amazon, and Netflix), understanding human speech (such as Siri and Alexa), self-driving cars (e.g., Waymo), generative or creative tools (ChatGPT and AI art), automated decision-making, and competing at the highest level in strategic game systems (such as chess and Go).

Nothing I have posted speak to complexity or a lack thereof reagarding coding.
And machines do not learn without software. Erase your computer hard drive. Try to run a spreadhseet on it. Let us know how it works.

You're struggling to support your thesis that we can get along just fine without AI, and you are failing soundly.

I just heard they are less than two years from stem cell stimulation to make hair grow again on guys with MPB.
An aritificial pancreas would be nice.

Wrong. Not all computers are electronic, so not all need software.

Show us how that computer can learn and change its operations through use.
Just like they stop calling it "AI" when it becomes ubiquitous ("As machines become increasingly capable, tasks considered to require "intelligence" are often removed from the definition of AI, a phenomenon known as the AI effect. For instance, optical character recognition is frequently excluded from things considered to be AI, having become a routine technology.), no one would look at that machine now and call it a "computer", anymore than they would call a slide rule or abacus a "computer", even if it is technically an accurate term.

Is that the machine you design boxes on?

Liability. My other half worked at target where corporate says crooks and workers are safety are their main priority. Thieves are smart where they hire team of underage kids to steal, when caught they can’t be held without adult and must be released and weak police policy. In reality they will stark jacking people at their car.

You’re just wrong with your statement, no matter how much you type. Not a big deal, though, as mechanical computers have been largely phased out, but they’re still computers and ran without software to help us with things.

This is a ~2000 year old mechanical computer that supposedly help predict when floods would happen for planting crops, or at least that’s one of the theories.

Scientists unlock mysteries of world's oldest 'computer'

The 2,000-year-old mechanism has baffled experts since it was discovered on a shipwreck in 1901.

Read it again a little closer. Then, tell us which part is wrong.
Is it the part about AI not being called AI when it becomes ubiquitous?
Is it the part that people today would never call that adding machine a computer (much less a “calculator”) in this day and age?
Is it my inference that the pictured machine cannot “learn” and change based on user input?

Go ahead and share.

If it's good enough for schools, then it good enough for retail sales.
