AI being incorrect, confident and stubborn is a killer combo 😂

@steviegpro @AdamAJRbrothers @RollingStone 4/ Love the article and the initiative - raising awareness to how inefficiencies in our tech are wasteful and ultimately bad for the environment

[Alex Sirota @iosart]

@steviegpro @AdamAJRbrothers @RollingStone 🧵1/ Indeed having local copies for frequently played songs would be much more efficient and better for the environment.

[Alex Sirota @iosart]

@steviegpro @AdamAJRbrothers @RollingStone 3/ Spotify’s early days stated with pretty sophisticated P2P streaming tech for efficiency and speed, so this would be them going back to their roots, this time for saving the planet’s resources in addition to just their own.

[Alex Sirota @iosart]

@steviegpro @AdamAJRbrothers @RollingStone 2/ But I think the solution is not just to try and convince a portion of consumers to download, but also to convince the big services like Spotify to invest in better local caching logic - automatically saving frequently played songs on the device.

Your Google home speakers are about to get slightly worse because Sonos sued and won https://t.co/kNH98Hr6ce
