    Almost half of Canadians know little about Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS, Linux, tcp/ip networking, file formats, disk partitioning, encryption, SSL certificates…

    There are a thousand things that Canadians SHOULD know about before they even think about ‘AI’.

      Orrrr how electricity works, how to do an oil change on a car, etc. Nobody can know everything so I think the article title is kinda stupid.

      Problem is people treat their computers and programs exactly like they treat their cars … as long as it starts and goes they don’t care. But when there’s a problem all hell breaks loose.

      Companies do the same thing, putting less importance on IT depts than stock buy backs.
