Humming birds are big this year!

Les colibris mâles peuvent être des gros lourds:

Server-Side #Swift folks (who use Hummingbird, especially):
We (w/ @… ) rolled HummingbirdMacroRouting 0.2 last night.
This is an alternate way to declare controllers and routes in Hummingbird, via macros, and it's what we're using for Studioworks.
Pretty happy…

Note that nowhere in that definition is there actually any attempt to define or measure “intelligence” — a term which we are scarcely able to define and to measure even for humans!
Note also that the definition is inherently a broad one and a shifting one. It’s relative to humans •and• relative to recent history.

Re this from @…, of the biggest tells about the current AI hype bubble:
Instead of replacing the work humans don’t want to do, it’s purporting to replace the work executives hate paying for.
Instead of an end to drudgery, they’re pushing an end to purpose and meaning.
And yeah, we’re going to end up cleaning up the AI’s messes. And doing its laundry.

Here’s the real actual definition of “artificial intelligence,” the true technical meaning in research and engineering circles when it’s not being used as marketing hype.
Artificial intelligence is anything that
1. humans are generally good at, and
2. computers were recently bad at.
That’s it. That’s all it means. You’ll hear people refine it and dress it up, but that’s the heart of the definition. (Check Wikipedia!)
