Future Utopia

Modern AI technology demands an ocean of data. If you have a smart appliance like a self-driving car, or Alexa, or almost any cutting-edge smart tech, then to work its best it must send your data home, another stream to the mother ocean. If we want our privacy back, we have to improve AI until it can learn from a drizzle of data, as humans can. As a side effect, when the sensors and effectors become good enough, robots will do it all and we’ll never have to work again.

clue:

Corporations want the data anyway, but with today’s AI technology, they need it for the tech to work.

give me a clue so sweet and true
