If I felt that Microsoft was delivering high quality software and was a meritocracy I would cut them a lot of slack, no matter what opinions they espoused and who they favored or excluded.
Unfortunately I have to use Skype for Business literally every working day and it's symptomatic of a company that is fat dumb and happy, secure in its cash flow.
You can do an image search on your favorite search engine and look for someone like Donna Brazile, who has been in politics for a long time and understands appearing on TV.
Then you can look at the clothes she is wearing and realize that in every photo where she is wearing a lighter dress or jacket, the automatic exposure settings of the camera adjusted for the average lighting of the scene and underexposed her face.
That is why, because Brazile has done countless TV appearances for decades ... in most of the photos you can see that she wears darker jackets or clothing.
Take a raking kind of light, and shine it on a beige to brown colored wall, so that the light will be stronger on one side and gradually fade in intensity (that is, less reflected light) across the field of view.
Now place a different shade of brown upholstered chair, in front of this wall.
Take a photo using the Hasselblad X1D, currently considered to have the most accurate color of mainstream cameras.
Now try to print it accurately, even with the best quality paper and a high end inkjet printer.
Not only that but they would change the behavior of a chip between revisions, so drivers for one revision, if they didn't take into account the changes, would suddenly stop working even though you bought the same ( but unknown to you, newer) version of the card.

So basically if you printed a strange design on one of those T-shirts that can be printed on all over, you could fool the AI in most cases... the same way that "Dazzle" camouflage for ships, works... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dazzle_camouflage
Unfortunately no. As soon as the image is rotated slightly to one side it disables the adversary print out. You can see this in the original paper with the final image.
Now, that doesn’t mean that a camouflage couldn’t be created that more generally avoids detection from these algorithms.
There are zoning laws in many, many parts of the country that prohibit housing under a certain size, usually about 700 square feet, which is enough for 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths.
Everything you say is accurate, but, grad students have to start somewhere. If they can make a 65nm version that runs at say 500Mhz, that would be better. Remember that "real work" was done on desktops on a Sparcv8 chip that ran at 75Mhz or less.
Yeah, didn't Windows 95 run on 100 Mhz x86 processors? And Linux used to be blazing fast on it too (compared to today where Linux seems to be slower than Windows on the same hardware - yeah, I am looking at you Ubuntu).
