As is usual for such a distant past, we can't answer basic questions: how many persons and where they were distributed, how their evolution and life was and mostly why intermediate species between modern human and the rest of primates don't survive today.
Now it's evident that a Rep POTUS mainly surrenders to the military/oil regime while a Dem to the banks/funds one. Tech and movie industry usually follow and adapt to the leader.
So many lessons from this. Never use Family Link, never keep multiple accounts on a device, always be prepared for the disaster. One must suffer for the rest to learn. Google is a shefferd for our digital life.
After 20 years as a doctor, if any AI rivals my expertise (mental/neuro disorders) then, I believe, it will deserve the Nobel prize. There are so many fuzzy factors and interconnecting mechanisms in the human biochemical factory, examined with both rigor and intuition, that one cannot encode even for one patient. Medicine is easy as science but difficult as art.
Being on topic, the best is to enhance the doctor's opinion with an AI helper but never completely remove him/her.
Modern AI absolutely excels at wrangling "fuzzy factors and interconnecting mechanisms".
That's the one lesson we learned in this AI wave quick. Things that used to be "a computer can't do it because it's not a formal task and it doesn't have the intuition for it" are now well within AI's reach.
Life is still hard to encode in digital format and there are two objects: the doctor's brain and the patient's body. Today the first step is the most difficult: the data to train on and the prompt to infere from, which, for medicine, need deeper and wider LLMs. Let's not talk about the acceptable failure rate and who takes the responsibility after a disaster.
Fire, pets, electronic chips, all advanced human civilisation step by step in different stages. It's hard to estimate the relative importance of each.
Speaking so generally, the ancient Greeks noted that all these are means for achieving higher goals. How many people think about that today? Quantity is not followed by quality.
Fortunately, OpenAI's naming didn't cause a wave of greedy and predatory new companies, like OpenHealth, OpenEnergy, OpenCompute. The non-sexy name of their product using the originating algorithm (GPT) is punishing them. It could be anything else more attractive that would bring more customers. Because, for me, a good, inspiratory, engaging name is half the success.
In the last few years all apps I install in a phone come outside of Play Store, because either they are full of ads, throttle their usage or simply similar ones don't exist. Without them the phone loses half of it's functionality, which is pretty much. So, I am willing to wait a day in the "advanced flow" to keep a multi-year experience.
Currency purchasing power isn't a very meaningful metric. It should be accompanied by the level of wages, at least. Besides, you can't compare any consumer data of the pre-tech/pre-plastic period before the 50's with subsequent ones. The social and technological frames were immensely different.
I try to be optimistic but don't extrapolate prematurely. The problem is not solar but storage and is not solved yet. I suppose the time will come that we will have to sacrifice part of the cheap solar energy to produce efuels or similar for our winters, transportation etc
almost nobody seems to get this. even if you replace conventional generators with solar, you still have to keep them around (and pay to keep them there) for when the sun is not shining, since there's currently no way to buffer the solar power.
