Book scanners have existed long before AI. In your local data archives, libraries, museums. We've NEVER had to destroy the physical copy to make a digital one. Don't let big tech make you believe otherwise.
Someone got kicked off of their parents' insurance plan because flock cameras were able to see that they spend the night at their gf's house multiple times a week. the insurance company used that as an excuse to kick them off and charge them separately
I've been fascinated by this building since reading about it ten years ago and finally got to see it in person today.
It's called Tietgenkollegiet, one of Copenhagen's most interesting buildings. And it's a student dorm.
It's basically an experiment in whether architecture can make strangers become friends.
~390 students live here. Private bedrooms face outward, while the shared spaces, kitchens, lounges, etc. face inward toward a huge central courtyard.
So you can literally see other people cooking, hanging out, and gathering across the courtyard.
Instead of telling people to “build community,” the architecture makes it happen naturally.
I would've LOVED to live here as a student.
