Media in desperate need of Trump distraction. Trump refuses to answer birther question, media gets story. Not sure which is more obnoxious, Trump's (non)answers, or the immediate dog-pile afterwards.
"But, as the conservative understands it, modification of the rules should always reflect, and never impose, a change in the activities and beliefs of those who are subject to them, and should never on any occasion be so great as to destroy the ensemble."

They really need to stop throwing so much shit at the wall. It's all coming across as white noise. They need to pick a scandal and ride it.

So what if Trump is asked the question during the debates?

By 2021, robots will have eliminated 6% of all jobs in the US, starting with customer service representatives and eventually truck and taxi drivers. That’s just one cheery takeaway from a report released by market research company Forrester this week.

These robots, or intelligent agents, represent a set of AI-powered systems that can understand human behavior and make decisions on our behalf. Current technologies in this field include virtual assistants like Alexa, Cortana, Siri and Google Now as well as chatbots and automated robotic systems. For now, they are quite simple, but over the next five years they will become much better at making decisions on our behalf in more complex scenarios, which will enable mass adoption of breakthroughs like self-driving cars.

These robots can be helpful for companies looking to cut costs, but not so good if you’re an employee working in a simple-to-automate field.

“By 2021 a disruptive tidal wave will begin. Solutions powered by AI/cognitive technology will displace jobs, with the biggest impact felt in transportation, logistics, customer service and consumer services,” said Forrester’s Brian Hopkins in the report.

The Inevitable Robot Uprising has already started, with at least 45% of US online adults saying they use at least one of the aforementioned digital concierges. Intelligent agents can access calendars, email accounts, browsing history, playlists, purchases and media viewing history to create a detailed view of any given individual. With this knowledge, virtual agents can provide highly customized assistance, which is valuable to shops or banks trying to deliver better customer service.

Forrester paints a picture of the not-too-distant future.

“The doorbell rings, and it’s the delivery of a new pair of running shoes, in the right style, color and size, just as you needed to replace your old ones. And here’s the kicker: you didn’t order them. Your intelligent agent did.”

In the transportation industry, Uber, Google and Tesla are working on driverless cars, while similar technology is creeping its way into trucking to replace expensive human drivers.

It’s easy to get dazzled by such innovations, but what happens to the 6%? The call center staff, the taxi drivers and the truckers. There may be new jobs created to oversee and maintain these automated systems, but they will require an entirely different skillset.

You can try to come up with rhymes better than Wayne.

All popular artists are popular because they've put thoughts in their act to get to where they are.

joke's on you i think wayne was the best rapper alive from 2007-2009

he's still not a deep thinker and clearly doesn't think about racism one iota. hard to be a deep thinker when you are high and fucked up on lean every single day.

Yeah I've been a Wayne fan too (still performs some catchy stuff) but the funny part is that he basically put himself on blast for not writing songs like Georgia... Bush.

When it Waynes, it pours. He's fenomenal.

I'm confused. You have difficulty choosing between the obnoxiousness of:

A: A birther conspiracy pusher

and

B: Everyone else who keeps calling the conspiracy theorist out on his bullshit?


Is Trump not in control of his own campaign page?

I guess the media is looking for some Trump scandals to deflect attention away from Hillarys health and next months wikileaks hacked email release.I don't think it matters anymore though, this race is over, Trump has all the momentum and Clinton has serious issues with her health and the emails.

Ok, you gotta stop putting words in people's mouth.

NOBODY ever mentioned that he was the best rapper, NOBODY, except for you because you want to "win" by Reductio ad absurdum.

Lil Wayne, of course doesn't feel racism.. He is one of the top artist in the industry well worth over 100 millions. It doesn't take a deep thinker to know that.

But that's because he worked hard for that.

If he doesn't feel racism because he's rich, does it mean the other feel it because they're poor ?

32% of independents say Hillary Clintons health is good enough to serve as president for next four years, a drop of 10% from the previous week.

This doesn't seem a very useful thing to poll when she's in the middle of a bout of pneumonia. Presumably now that she is feeling better, and campaigining again, the numbers will return to whatever they were before.

The whole focus on health is beyond retarded (although the Clinton campaign did handle it exceptionally badly).
