If you think AI is just about automated office tasks then you haven't been paying attention.
Today's "AI" is, mostly automation.
AI's reach extends far beyond basic "office tasks" because it handles complex workflows, accelerates physical and digital problem-solving, and increases the overall speed of tasks with less human error.
Instead of just drafting emails or sorting data, advanced systems will coordinate projects, analyze deep patterns, and drive major operational shifts. There is even an AI running its own business in SF now.
"Luna / Andon Market: An autonomous AI agent given a budget and lease to run a real storefront in San Francisco."
That sounds like a really lovely marketing material template of almost any "AI" prospectus.
www.businessinsider.com - Claude Code's creator says his setup involves thousands of AI sub-agents doing 'deeper work' overnight - 2026-05-13
|------ Anthropic engineer Boris Cherny says his coding setup now involves "a few thousand" AI agents working for him overnight.
Cherny, the creator of Claude Code, described his AI workflow during an interview with Sequoia Capital on May 4.
His answers - including how he mostly runs the agents via his phone - highlighted how some Silicon Valley engineers are beginning to use AI systems less like chatbots and more like always-on autonomous assistants.
Cherny said he relies heavily on two Claude Code features built for persistent automation: /loops and Routines.
He said users can schedule /loops locally via cron, while Routines run recurring tasks on a server, allowing engineers to keep agents working after their laptops are closed. ...

Stories like this are popping up nearly every day now.
Yes, of course. There are also "stories" nearly every day that don't make it into popular, mainstream press.
"A pair of humanoid robots crossed a major medical milestone this week after successfully performing gallbladder removals in pigs for the first time ... "
Intuitive Surgical's DaVinci robots (and their copycats) are old news and have been on the market since early 2000s; if you have seen phrase "minimally invasive surgery" it most likely refers to all kinds of robot-assisted medical procedures, from head to toes.
"In 2012, it was used in an estimated 200,000 surgeries, most commonly for hysterectomies and prostate removals."
And robotics may or may not include AI, but often confused with AI because most are usually consumer-facing, even if it's as simple as Roomba.
The Singularity is Nearer.
Yes, every day, by definition... but none of what you posted before is even remotely close to Singularity, or much beyond automation of previously "manual" tasks.
In fact, most of what was described in that 'prospectus' I could run much cheaper on a network years ago with a logic module, few scripts and not very sophisticated task scheduler, with or without ERP or "supervising" the process.
I didn't call it AI.

Is he demanding they compete against boys in sports and share locker rooms with boys?

Neither is Ms Rachael... you petty pos.
Is that your favorite mad you bring out when things aren't heading your way? Your team is setting up to lose another war... and you're still harping on a counterculture fashion trend that will die of natural attrition... because for some reason you think it's more important.That's how stupid people like you are... going all crusader rabbit... over nothing.
You think killing muslims is the answer. Well... the spread of Islam increased exponentially since bozo's like you went to war with Iraq. You're making it more popular than it has ever been...
