"Boosts to productivity" But we don't have a productivity problem we have a distribution problem and a greed problem

[@danielbarbour3501]

So true - when companies say they are pursuing improvements to 'productivity' it means getting more out of the same number of staff or doing the same job with fewer staff. If you are an owner this is great, if you are an employee it can mean losing your job. Improvements in productivity COULD be of benefit to the common worker if the increased profits led to increases in salary and if some of the additional profits were also redirected to benefit those who were displaced - but more often than not the same companies (owners) benefiting from such changes are simultaneously lobbying to reduce their taxes that could be used to fund those benefits.

[@awAtercoLorstaIn.]

As AI changes the job landscape (and it is going to have an absolutely enormous impact), we're going to have to consider a UBI; there simply won't be enough jobs to support 335 million people, and we can't all wait tables and do construction. Automation is fantastic, *only if* those in charge are willing to share the proceeds. Otherwise, the wealth gap is going to become too cavernous to support a nation.

Good show. Can’t wait for part 2. I had a hysterectomy in 2018 and the surgeon used the Davinci robot to remove my cancerous fibroid and the whole female system. Trouble was that the tumor was the size of a little lemon and she used small laparoscopic incisions for the robot blades and tools. Consequently she seeded me. Since then I have been through multiple chemos and radiation treatments for 7 abdominal wall tumors. If A.I. was involved no doubt it would’ve recommended a large straight abdominal incision and I would’ve been cancer free today. I’m 69. I currently have no lymph node or organ involvement nor new tumors but the cures are making me very sick and full of pain. Thank God my medical teams are dedicated and competent. 🤒

[@biblebadcopycatofcuneiform8210]

Why do you "Thank God.." when your "God" has *nothing* to do with it, but the Doctors do? Why do you not give higher phrase to the Doctors than the fictional Bible God that was Enki and Enlil merged into 1 3-letter word? The massive ignorance of so many people is just astounding to me. I had cancer, I won't share what kind in public but I do not thank a dick dictator God that in a book treats humans so poorly. Yet, the fictional Jesus also supports this "God" thug (slavery). I thanked each and every Doctor and Nurse, and made SURE they understood I was NOT making them second class to the thug. You'd be very surprised how many of them really, really appreciated that. No B.S.!! I am doing very well, and I've changed some of my eating habits as well increased my better drink intakes. I also enjoy wine and beer.
Yes, I really made it known to each person that I do not rely on an UnHoly Bible God/Jesus at all anymore since the age of 16 (which I'm well beyond) because of the experiences I've seen, witnessed first hand.
If your Bible God were TRUE...and "All Loving" as Christians loooooove to say then Trump would not be alive still, COVID-19 would never have existed, and Hit-ler would not have existed as well as some others. Christians are the most ignorant and gullible lot of people I keep encountering through my many, many years.
DaVinci researched into the human body, and it did so keeping it hidden from the Church of the time. Stepping way forward, Doctors have made massive steps ahead, and without any kind of thug God. BTW, even Lucifer helped humanity by helping humanity come out of ignorance. "God" was angry about that. WHY?? So that makes the Bible God UNENLIGHTENED. It means Lucifer cared deeply. Thhhhhhiiiiiiiinnnnk about that!!

PROPAGANDA PERIOD

[@TheFlyingBrain.]

Thank you very much for daring to be vulnerable and sharing your story. Someone close to me is at the starting point for a potentially similar situation. Your story sheds light on important questions that need to be asked on her behalf. I wish you all the best, and specifically: A speedy, complete recovery.
Here's a gift in return for your generosity. Take from it what you will... What feels intuitively "right" for you. I've been a natural health consultant for 50 years... I have some expertise -- years of research and professional experience behind what I offer.
Think of this like building a house. Your body's cells are literally constructed out of everything you eat. Every 7 yrs you get a new house. Different body systems recycle and replace their cells at different rates, but 7 yrs is approx how long it takes to replace everything that can be recycled. If you don't provide a good quality materials for your cells, then your foundation will be weak, and the house will fall down.
If you aren't already doing all of this, it's best to take making changes one step at a time. The important thing is to keep going -- slow and steady wins. Lasting change happens gradually:
Eat predominantly an abundance of fresh ORGANICALLY grown vegetables and fruits year round, as close to locally grown as you can get in season. Find workable alternatives for meat, and when you can, learn about the old vegetarian methods of food combining to increase protein levels in your meals -- books were written about it in the 80's by a couple named Lappé... "Diet For A Small Planet" was one of them. Then eliminate all meat from your diet. If you are concerned about getting enough protein, eat some fish once every week or two, but be careful about where it comes from -- no farm-raised fish, and only small fish... Their bodies have accumulated less poisons, such as mercury. You can find out about this easily online. If you feel you absolutely must have meat, eat only meat from animals that are free to roam outside and in the case of ruminants (cows) grass fed, not grain fed. If you combine and eat whole grains and legumes (beans, lentils, fermented soy) to boost protein, make sure those are organic and not GMO tampered.
Avoid all food additives. Avoid plastics Above all, nsist on clean, well-filtered water always, and keep your air as clean as you can, too.
If cost is a problem in acquiring (genuine) organic foods and you are American, know that eating less than Americans typically eat is generally very much healthier for most of us: quality over quantity is always preferable. Since you've had chemo, acquiring and taking broad spectrum digestive enzymes with meals will definitely help you heal. Also, learn about and implement everything you can about restoring and boosting your gut biome. Cancer treatment is especially hard on this vital aspect of what creates your body's ability to derive nutrients from your food, eliminate wastes from your cells and gut, and maintain peak immunity.
You can easily double check everything I've recommended here. I recommend you do so.
All the best to you! 💜

Just after you were born, a person, or people, gave you some measure of loving kindness, some amount of compassion. If not, you would not be alive now.

The foundation of human life, therefore, is loving kindness and compassionate understanding.
As we age we are taught otherwise by damaged people. 💔
Their misdirection is rarely intentional. They are simply sick due to their own early learning experiences/trauma.
Once this is understood, we can seek help to dismantle the wrong thinking that we were taught and insert, through daily practice, right thinking, and thereby right actions.

But it does not think. It can't think. It's just faster at finding the exact same crap on the interwebz that any of us can find doing a series of searches. The junk being called A.I. today is just a collection of algorithms, and algorithms are bias embedded in code.

Given the rules of English grammar and composition, it can edit, correct and revise text, and even give it flare.

-I Remember the good old days when movies like The Terminator, Colossus The Forbin Project, & certain other sci-fi movies about ai, was ONLY just sci-fi. 100yrs from now, humans will be acting & taking orders from ai. Because man isn't smart enough to stay ahead of it, even if he created it.

This yields exponential results that are BEYOND IMAGINATION!

Groundhog Day (the movie) comes to mind..

[@maximilian314]

Excellent discussion. Great job bringing to light the possibilities and obstacles we are traversing thru on the road to AI.

[@anthonye.4999]

Just fascinating

[@pathfinderdiscovery9395]

Love some nova , nova is now sponsored by AI , I love how the older shows dudes voice sounded saying similar things

[@matthewzaczeniuk4892]

I'm so glad to see that the same show I loved as a kid is still going strong.

[@kiyonmcdowell5603]

Neural links/BCI's and advanced prosthesis are the future

I came back to finish this one. What a great AI review. 👍👊

[@ShadowEclipex]

We need to keep AI to the worlds of Sciences, Medicine, and even hard labor where they can actually do good, and keep them out creative fields where they aren't needed.

[@dr.feelgood2358]

it's a powerful tech in it's infancy. we have no idea how it will develop from this point, which is scary. the potential for abuse is enormous.

[@arjamal2063]

Major funding for nova is provided by the following

[@FibroMyBro]

All these malding people with 200k debt for an art degree or photography degree, etc. When they realize they have no chance against A.I. 😂

[@Da-Sheek]

I think it is quintessential for our survival in fighting disease and advancement's in life but definitely must be regulated for its other capabilities like deep fakes and such.

[@domsau2]

Very good!
PS: 15:02 Very nice!

[@kirkwagner461]

Good coverage.

[@bindoolalshukla]

Bow down to the minds behind these craziness

[@amandab.recondwith8006]

It is a matter of concern. I can see the fantastic possibilities in medicine, but when it comes to brain recognition and learning to be more human, I have a real problem with it. I think someone needs to install a permanent option to "pull the plug."

[@casspirburns]

The creation and use of all of these technologies needs to be highly regulated.Tthere’s a need for impact assessments and a new tool can only be allowed to develop if the real life humans that are affected are compensated for the loss to their livelihoods.

[@mildsoup8978]

That music is how you end a night

[@NN57143]

This is all very interesting. Now, please do a show on how AI is applied in hiring practices right now.

[@miguelwc]

A lot of helpful things will come but I fear the worst.

[@michaelaustin9987]

“ we have lowered barriers to entry,to manipulate reality “ 😯 so only certain people should be able to manipulate reality?? Interesting statement made.

[@josephpiskac2781]

I created brilliant A.I. starting in 2010. I sent several advisory examples to the World Economic Forum promoting brilliant A.I. I receive no credit monetary gain for my work.

[@carlossummers4992]

Proof. 🤭

[@georgeflitzer7160]

Remember in the original Star Trek series they came to a planet where they had a technology that the civilization had developed that exterminated their own civilization?

[@dallasroberts3206]

Excellent as usual. Thank you.
