Here's the topic for today - please share your thoughts in a comment!

NOTE: An ANI System is an "Artificial Narrow Intelligence". By "fully intelligent" we mean it can operate on the same level as a human, but isn't a person strictly speaking.

I would use such an ANI in many ways, such as helping me compile my writing from the dozens of notes I make and suggesting new art styles to look into based on my personal preferences. I'd also ask it to help me manage my schedule and suggest new advertising and networking options. There's only so many hours in a day and I could sure use the help :P

Voice activated personal assistant. And one you don't have to take to lunch on Administrative Assistant day.

I've heard ads for personal concierge service and an ANI would probably be most affordable. In fact I see it as a feature of smartphones within 25 years. Be careful trying to trademark ani it already belongs to an orthopedic practice.

Certainly, but like Westworld, it'll probably become sentient anyway :D
