I guess we'll just have to call it Hong Gary then.

You'd think by now Jean-Luc Picard would be a well known example and systems are able to deal with it.

"We call her Carrie, because of the carriage return."

You can also try to give the child NULL as middle name for additional fun.

Last I heard this is for onboard speech recognition and basic image recognition/OCR so these things can more intelligently listen, see and store what you're doing without sending it to a server. Not creepy at all.

That's why NPU will have high bandwidth memory on chip. They're also low precision to save power but massively parallel. A GPU and CPU can do it too, but less optimized.

Everything with air taxis is estimated to be an order of magnitude more expensive than the ground version. So far it's pretty much like the difference between flying commercial and flying charter. I guess rich people invest in rich boy's toys.

What you say is correct and is also what is happening. Some have no children, some one of two. The end is fertility rate below replacement rate. Many people that want children stop at 2 because then it becomes too hard to combine with a job and costs too much. If there government wants more children, support is needed.
