@MidnightRider until the moment we really get a chatbot each, that calls them to DDO the service

First they replaced those who would listen to you with chatbots, bc you did not deserve human listeners.

Now they replace YOU with an clown of you, bc YOU don't deserve to look human when complaining:

We all deserve personal AI chatbots that call all these centers 24/7

fifth panel, not shown but essential:

Everybody else does the same, so Fred feels behind even more, because his AI assistant cannot answer

"What's the purpose of the whole rat race, again?"

this is not

The REAL reason to slow down a race to "God-like AI" isn't that it'd kill us:

It is that we cannot afford to waste all that energy and money, when there is so much stuff to do first (even with AI!), like this:

but we will surely know now. The gods cast their blessing on me: 🙂

My life just reached its peak. Everything from now on can only be worse

If the title is correct, this "god-father of " is just another guy who got things backwards:

hasn't become necessary NOW, after some tech bro said "ops, I've invented this thing that will destroy jobs, please make UBI to fix my mess".

It's exactly the opposite: UBI has been half necessary, half unavoidable, for decades now, so should prove it's the tool that can make it happen:

@GlytchMeister yes, that's why I asked 🙂

But I'd just be happy with a one-sentence description of what that "reason" is. SO, I hope some kind soul who is subscribed to Medium would answer

can:

DO is actually hugely useful stuff like this:

OR "empower" everybody to make shitty (and often TOTALLY unnecessary) text or images

Here's a trend that will (and I would say "MUST") become more and more and more common in the next years:

"surrogate" GRANDPARENTING

Do you agree? Are you ALREADY doing it? Please tell!

In 1921, public pressure prompted Congress to put on the appearance of investigating Klan violence and undue influence in local and state governments—but Congress quickly ended its inquiry when Klan officials denied the allegations. Immediately thereafter, new Klan membership applications jumped to 5,000 per day. By 1924, there were three million active members nationwide, including 35,000 in Detroit, 55,000 in Chicago, 200,000 in Ohio, 240,000 in Indiana, and 260,000 in Pennsylvania.

@mfioretti As 5G was rolling out last year or so, Xfinity was touting its "10G Network".

This was pure, unadulterated marketing.

6G telecom is one of those cases where I LOVE having been right... until I think to how much money was wasted:
