Artificial intelligence, friend or foe?
Will there be a race if AI's or will one decide it's enough?

1. AI will be both friend and foe. 2. By the time one AI decides one is enough, several others will have made the same decision.
***Employee Properly Discharged After Misrepresenting That A “Pterodactyl” Collided With Her Delivery Truck
In Barnette v. Federal Express Corporation, a federal district court in Florida dismissed plaintiff's gender discrimination suit concluding that the employee was properly discharged for falsifying an accident report. Barnette had reported that a "pterodactyl" or "some kind of big bird" had collided with her FedEx vehicle. However, an investigation revealed that plaintiff had hit and damaged the gate outside a gated community, and brown paint from the gate matched scrape marks on the vehicle. Further, there was no evidence that male drivers were not discharged for similarly falsifying work records.
