That's interesting. At first blush, the very notion made my hair stand
on end for some reason. On second thought, a computer evaluating the
data without human emotional bias might reach reliable conclusions.
Well, if the data is provided without human emotional bias. I dunno, it
would be interesting to see what happens if they expand the experiment.
I wonder if there's a fuller report published somewhere giving more
details. The notion is intriguing for sure, but I'm not ready to jump
for joy over a great new age of computerized guide dog selection.
