I rember when “AI” was just the pathfinding in videogames

I have anecdotal evidence that ML applied to image recognition is being used to improve imaging machines (MRI, tomography, etc…)

On a car without modification, likely not, at least not a decently good model. You could technically install a powerful enough computer in your car to run on it

And a lot of support, especially aimed to the beginner userbase. Most basics questions a first time linux user will encounter are usually answered to by searching the forum

It depends on the definition of “color”. For us humans, in our everyday life, the abstraction we have in our mind is more meaningful than the wavelength, which is what formally defines a color, but not how we cognitively perceive it

They are not talking about the mathematical definition of color, but how the color is represented in the mental image you have in your head. Think about how a blue wavelength becomes a blue “pixel” in your head. It is possible to imagine other colors? If we could see ultraviolet, what color would it be? Is my blue the same as your blue or what my brain interprets as blue is different from what your brain does?

For me and good and bad are relative: windows 10 was waaaay better than 8, and for some aspects it is quite good, objectively it’s still crap for many other things

Try and ask her the real reason why she might be reluctant. “Because they’re muslim” is not a really strong argument; “because they are fundamentalist and they might extrange me as daughter or prevent me fron leaving the house if they found out” is a very practical explaination on this compromise she decided to take.

Families are complicated and sometimes shitty, but it’s her family and navigating around you and them could be difficult (she might love her parents and want to maintain a relationship with them, or she hates them but relies on their financial support, both options are valid)
