Those are terminal emulators, not actual terminals. You can't fork or exec on iOS/iPadOS, so they're not actually running e.g. a python process, they're just running python interpreter.
As I understand it, ish implements x86 instructions and Linux syscalls as functions and translates running programs into arrays of calls to these functions, so all the machine code that will ever run is included in the app bundle, which at least satisfies the rules iOS enforces at runtime.
As for the rules as written, I suppose you could make reasonable arguments either way.
I was dealing with something similar with it yesterday. No code involved. It was giving me factually incorrect information about a multiple schools and school districts. I told it it was wrong multiple times and it hallucinated school names even. Had the school district in the wrong county entirely. It kept telling me I was wrong and that although it sounded like the answer it gave me, it in fact was correct. Frustrated, I switched to Expert, had it re-verify all the facts, and then it spit out factually correct information.
In reality, when getting out first to market, it might be difficult for "AI" to decipher if a user added 1 of 5 available sauces to their chicken wings, so to reduce the likelihood of this error, you remove it until the technology is more mature. Speculative sure, but a strong assumption, and I doubt Mashgin would confirm this.
Its definitely wrong - I've used these exact checkout systems at places with way longer menus than any stadium has ever or will ever have. Even if that wasn't the case, it would still be way too speculative of premise to be worth seriously discussing, especially when the Occam's Razor "they reduced the menu size because its easier, they have a captive market, and why try to make good food when you can just charge $20 for a beer" explanation is right there in front of you.
When the menu reduction coincides with the introduction of vision-based checkout, I don't think it's an obvious overreach to link the two together. It may be right, it may be wrong, but this wasn't journalism, just a guy's experience, and the root cause of that decision doesn't change what the article is actually trying to communication.
They do that at Circle K[0] today using the same tech from Mashgin. It's meant to be a self-checkout, but you literally have one employee standing and watching this one checkout (sometimes 2-3, but usually 1-2). It's not always accurate, requires some hand-holding at times, and slows down the already slow lines at Circle K. It's a bit faster than the article implies and does not require a staff member, but still slower than a human would be.
Meanwhile over at QuikTrip, there's one person checking out two people at a time. Suffice to say, if both stores are available, I will always choose the QT.
I use circle-K because it's like 3 blocks from me. The self-checkout seems to work fine. I buy alcohol on the rare occasion I drink, and even then the cashier just steps to the side for one moment to check my ID, presses a button, and then goes back to what he's doing with someone/something else. It never overcharges me, at least, and it always seems to pick things up in just a couple moments. I suppose I take the time to space them out a bit, but I always seem to have a perfectly reasonable experience.
That being said, I see the same one-person-two-registers thing at 7-eleven, and it's very, very fast.
You mentioned there are multiple occasions: You got a quote on that? I did a quick Google search, but the most recent events are hogging up the results and I didn't hear anything literal about him saying what you claim he was saying. If you're referring to the most recent question asked by a reporter, what you're saying is false -- there was nothing literal or explicit about it.
The specific text in the 22nd Amendment states:
"No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once"
I believe it's because statistics can be interpreted in different ways and requires analysis (work). "AI" just gives you an answer, even if it's wrong.
