FIFA officials turning on Gianni Infantino. Now FIFA’s chief operating officer Kevin Lamour tells Graham Dunbar @AP that he feels staff were “deceived” by Infantino’s lack of openness over inviting venture capitalists to take stakes in the World Cup and staff “deserve better than contempt and intimidation”.

I wrote up a new article about it: blog.pragmaticengineer.com/p…

Device makers have a big question to crack:
Would users rather have AI on device for security or would they rather have AI that says Amazon didn’t bury their packages?
