This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.

The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.

Happy Black History Month.

Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge.

The AI bubble will bust just one step at a time.

Tyler King @tyleraking.com · 19d

“One notable MIT study found that 95 percent of companies that integrated AI saw zero meaningful growth in revenue. For coding tasks, one of AI’s most widely hyped applications, another study showed that programmers who used AI coding tools actually became slower at their jobs.”

AI Completely Failing to Boost Productivity, Says Top Analyst

AI may or may not excel at a lot of things, but from an economic standpoint, it's definitely not making us more productive.
