As someone (a blind person) who writes on technology, I personally find the postings very useful. It's general stuff about technology that helps all of us, because, when you go back to your peer groups and talk about the latest postings about Windows Vista, you will be asked how you got that and you can then say how useful AI is. For your kind information, that's what I do.
