I'm getting "Spy Kids" vibes...#IS6621

@MasonPeterman "The future is private" looks great as a headline, but it is going to take a LOT for them to shed their not so positive past with privacy issues #IS6621 #C

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@JimHanrahan7 Yeah yikes sums it up nicely...the tweet itself was bad enough, but her reply to the "language" comment was so much worse...fine to be excited about a new job but you have to know how to be professional, just because it's online doesn't mean there won't be consequences #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@emmasandersisys @kgcorrigan @TechCrunch I completely agree, this would make ads so much more subtle, allowing influencers to have more genuine content and probably more followers, while still being a really effective way of selling to consumers as well #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@emmasandersisys haha I was a huge fan of the baskets as well, we used to have competitions to see who could pick up the most the fastest, but true would be most applicable in more competitive settings #IS6621

This would have saved a lot of time in high school tennis practice, pretty cool application of AI #IS6621

[Insider Tech @TechInsider]

This tennis ball-collecting robot can collect up to 80 balls in a single run

Crazy how advanced VR is getting, the slide one looks really fun #IS6621

[Insider Tech @TechInsider]

These are our favorite VR experiences

@kegallagher18 @instagram Really interesting and I'd love to see the feedback as well. Not sure I can see it being implemented platform wide though. As sad as it is, likes ties into a lot of users' self-worth, so not sure what Instagram would look like without it #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@emmasandersisys This would be brutal, but it does seem inevitable unfortunately. I would hope they would still offer an ad free option #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@licarima Always so funny how jarring it is when even little changes in the layout happen, but I have to say I'm not a fan #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@matturally Agreed, this makes no sense to me. My mood doesn't change my taste preference? Seems like yet another unnecessary application of AI #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

Heard on the Street: Apple's latest offerings may simply end up being a test of how devoted its biggest fans are https://t.co/S3wGh6pDWC

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@matturally This is so important, as great as the possibilities of AI are, if we don't actively make an effort to incorporate humanities and morality into our decisions now, the possible repercussions really scare me #IS6621 #C

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@OliviaCrowley96 Wow this seems like a really great idea, always easier to learn a new skill or language the earlier you start! Curious to see the specifics of how they'll go about teaching the concepts #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

Not completely convinced there is a big enough market who is willing to pay for this #IS6621

The demise of traditional retail continues #IS6621

[Business Insider @BusinessInsider]

More than 300 store closures are announced in a single day, as the retail apocalypse rips through JCPenney, Gap, and Victoria's Secret https://t.co/j1JrUm2joY

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@ADurney1 Categorizing this as piracy seems like a bit of a stretch, Netflix already doesn’t allow more than one user to stream at the same time if you have a single-user account, not sure what else can be done #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@emmasandersisys That would annoy me as well, and they're going to be so noticeably thicker than the phones that we're used to, seems like a big problem if they are't thin enough to fit in a pocket, I'm not sold on the concept personally #IS6621

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

Curious as to how much demand there will actually be for folding phones, especially at these very high price points #IS6621

[Insider Tech @TechInsider]

.@SamsungMobile Galaxy Fold versus @HuaweiMobile Mate X — what's the best foldable phone? #MWC19

[Shannon Benoit @ShannonBenoit5]

@emmasandersisys I'm happy to see they are trying some actual innovation and new features, but will people be willing to move to green texts? Maybe if Apple doesn't step it up, but I'm honestly not sure I see it happening #IS6621
