I miss scarcity

Thanks for the link...ghdprentice

I think we are not too far from one another...

I want as you hope and ressources...

Technology can provide them for sure...

 

My only point and it is an important one:  Education of child need human contact...

Teaching is not at all about informing the child...

it is about learning how to behave and act...Then it is about body activities in sport and creative art... About Thinking when learning how to read and write, only human can teach that to young children...

The problem is the human intention is not at all a conscious process, it is a social process...

A.I. cannot be here a catalyst replacing human contact (teachers) it can only be disruptive...

 We cannot all be A.I.  prompter for the works we all dream to work with as in the cartoon above...

Jobs and capitalism are obsolete as communism was...

Only the hive seems to emerge from this... 

i remember the first manageable  computer in 1970 big as two refrigerator with cards. my friend of the times whom i lost few years later because he disapear  in IBM, one day arrive happy:

"you see you wrote poems but now you are obsolete,my computer can write poems too" he was mi-serious, mi joking...

Nowadays who read poetry?

It is impossible to master our native language if we dont master poetry...

It is impossible to master mathematics  if we dont master  highly abstract concepts which are metaphors...

If A.I. decide what are the metaphors for us because he will become our master soon,  mankind will become a hive.

 

What is"common sense"...

It is the glue that link us unconsciously as consciously...it is what emerge of the relation between bios and logos...Common sense was there before fire invention, it was the link between the apes.But common sense, our common nature and social  belonging cannot survive cyborgs...

 

 

Here i take Google A.I. to shorten a thought of McLuhan about "common sense" :

 

 evolved with media, referring to a "new" kind of unified sensory and cognitive awareness formed by the media environment. It is a person’s ability to translate sensory experiences into a unified, coherent understanding of the world, a process that becomes increasingly multisensory in the electronic age due to technologies like television and the internet. He argued that the "common sense" of a particular era is shaped by its dominant media technologies, leading to a new sensory ratio that can be both unifying and disruptive. »

The fifth factor of media i added to the McLuhan tetrad is : self destruction...

All technologies are disruptive till the day one new tech. is born driving us to auto-destruction... A.I. is this decisive moment in our history...

 

This  will be the lost of common human sense deem as obsolete ....

Check out the link. The grade school using AI, uses it for three hours a day… getting all the formal training out of the way. Then the majority of the time is used in groups… socializing, life skills, and working together. Used correctly it is about maximizing socialization as well as learning. 
 

I think what the shows is that you must completely rethink how approach learning.

I will check...thanks...

But this does not invalidate my point...

 

RE: The original post subject. Although I have access to 10's of millions of songs at my fingertips, what I find incredibly frustrating is the difficulty finding the information that used to be featured in liner notes. Being a Half-fast musician (acoustic guitar), I'm always interested in the musicians who performed. Especially the background performers.

Interesting aside to that, back in the early 90's I bought a Shawn Colvin CD and while reading the notes saw a last name that looked familiar to me. Sure enough, it was the son of one of my exes' college instructors who had purchased her elementary school age son a set of drums. Turned out he was the drummer in the Saturday night life band and a prominent New York studio sessions drummer with a who's who credits list. 

I must admit, I'm losing my talent for managing all this content, and I'm losing my love for it. And it's making me into a different person, somewhat, and I am not so sure I want to be that person. End of reflection.

There's a lot more to say about that, but I feel the same way. Amen, brother.
