Well done Michael Jordan.

(NB Do not confuse it with the one in Delaware)

Interesting. Never heard of him before. Perhaps he suffered from the Hawthorne effect?

Whaaat? You never heard of MICHAEL JORDAN??? And what is the Hawthorne effect?

Whaaat? You never heard of Hawthorne effect???

Too-shay!

1) You must have been living under Ayer's rock! (aka Uluru)

2) I knew of the effect of course, but not the name, from the Hawthorne Western Electric plant. It is always best to keep the subjects unaware of the experiment, though this can be difficult, even with animals.

Well done! Ayers is faraway from Delaware you see :)

In miles yes, but the world is now a global village, and Michael is a GLOBAL phenomenon.

The Delaware guy is still not making waves in AI land. 😊

A worthy candidate indeed!

Tokyo's 2020 Olympics are already the most expensive summer games ever. And that's before the games have even taken place.

But problems run deeper than the delay. We break it down.
