I can see a large subset of the business market choosing filtered options.

I can see many of these companies not being opposed to resumes being filtered.

It’s also a scaled down version, not the full version.

It’s self perception.

It’s just a slightly different version of I think, therefore I am.

Time moves ever so slightly differently in orbit than it does on Earth’s surface.

It is possible for an astronaut to change positions with someone else.

Hopefully he loses his medical license once convicted.

Coworkers won’t notice you looking at your other screen during Zoom meetings.

Referred to the DA, he will decide who is charged with what.

That decision has yet to be made.

We already have that.

Machine Learning algorithms are already making advances in mathematics and medicine.

If your think anything requires zero maintenance your not looking at the larger picture, just one very small piece.

You still have to maintain the entire power grid, pay your employees, replace aging equipment, etc.

Roko’s Basilisk may want to have a word with you in the near future.

GPT4 does not have to be AGI to be disruptive.

Hyped or terrified.

With a singularity, it’s impossible to know.

The Republicans have been trying to defund the IRS for decades.

This is neither new nor surprising. It is the reason the IRS is currently understaffed by ~50,000 people.

And the government will be another 30 years behind that.

Assuming you can get politicians to vote to replace themselves or convince the general population to go along with being governed by computers.

Neither is likely on any time scale, no matter how advanced the AI is.

Something you left off you chart is trust. A lot of people will not trust computers to govern or make decisions that affect how they are governed. It won’t matter how good the computers might be at it.

Since I am involved in my agencies current software update, yes.

We are currently updating our front end from ActiveX to a front end more appropriate to 2010. We are looking at 3-5 years for all projects to be completed.

The back end is running on an Access database. Updating the back end is not part of the contract.

Once in place, the new systems are supposed last at least 20 years. I will be retiring by then.

Read the second half of my post.

AI doesn’t meet the legal requirements to hold political office.

Past a certain level, those requirements include citizenship and age and are defined by the Constitution.

Changing those requirements would be extraordinarily difficult and would have to be signed off on by three different supermajorities . Supermajorities that would personally be adversely affected.

Most desk jobs, but not all.

There are things people won’t want automated, even if the technology allows it.

This holds particularly true for government. Not only do most people not want to be governed by machines, government in general lags decades behind in software adoption.

You could just as easily use an ark ship.

No planet, sun, or any other inherent measure of time. Only the cycles arbitrarily imposed by the ship.

To me, art is just pretty things to look at.

I have zero interest in who created any given piece or why they created it.

The oldest millennials have already hit middle age.

They started turning 40 two years ago.

Step 1: grow trees, which pulls CO2 from the atmosphere

Step 2: cut trees down and sell them

Step 3: compost trees or burn trees, which releases some, but not all, of the captured carbon back into the atmosphere.

Step 4: goto step 1

​

This results in a net carbon sink.

Even if humans survive, they will eventually evolve into something people today would not categorize as human.

I enjoyed the book for what it is.

A good and interesting book.

It did not strike me as humorous.

It’s pulling more CO2 from the air than it’s adding,

New trees are replanted, pulling CO2 from the air. Meanwhile a lot of the old trees get mulched or buried in landfills, which is sequestered carbon.
