Thoughts on whether we’ll ever get to a critical mass of well-publicized AI failures Watson health, Zillow home flipping, etc) that leads business leaders to conclude AI is transformative for a small subset of industries, but just hype for most?

Watson has been made obsolete. Idk details about Zillow home flipping but probably a lot more there than just AI.

Short answer: no. These are diffuse examples which don’t prove any general principle about the industrial relevance of AI

Depends on your standards for “transformative”, but I find it genuinely hard to come up with any example of an industry where AI *doesn’t* have a use case that will become the industry standard. Supply chain optimization, revenue forecasts, pricing models alone have enough AI use cases to impact most industries

That’s such a blanket statement. AI is industry agnostic. The real question is when will folks stop putting a “round peg in a square hole” with AI in order to solve their problems and devise simpler ways to meet their business needs.

Im a RN and took on a new role working in Home Health. I chose this position because My husband & I recently moved to PA with our 2 kids (1&3), with no family available for his residency program with a hospital. If you know that life, I’m pretty much the main parent for our kids. I don’t want to work in the hospital/floor work anymore; nor do I believe the hrs are flexible enough. I need a job that’s flexible for the kids but pays >$44/hr. Maybe remote or hybrid? Please help w/ suggestions.

I’m interviewing with a startup and the range has a 40k difference from the lowest to highest point. It’s also pre-seed and comes with equity, and health, 401k benefits. It’s a director of sales role so I would eventually be recruiting and managing a team along with building the processes and strategy. What would you consider a fair compensation package? If they offer me something on the lower end of the range, is it still appropriate to counter with an offer that is over their stated range?

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.
