Technology is transforming the world as we know it. Gone is the Industrial Age, now we are in the Information Age. Or is that the Disinformation Age?

A free Elon Must AI Robot Companion Helper -EMARCH – for everyone over the age of 70 could enable them to remain more independent.

With AI it won’t be long before it can even THINK for them 🤡
