Heather's asleep, so maybe I can help:

Hmmm... I find the basis of the article somewhat simplistic. I suppose you
could go back far enough with anything, and say it is an old idea produced in a
new way. For instance, the dissemination of information via writing has been
around for millenia, but someone made a way to do it
A lot of what he is talking about here is what they are now calling Machine
Learning. I didn't 'fully' understand how this worked. But a few paragraphs

I wasn't aware that there was objections and controversies when it comes to
