Mad rush into computerisation of life

We are seeing the beginning of the results of greater AI capabilities right right with Musk culling half his Twitter employees, other tech companies having culls too. AI can do lots of jobs like coding for tasks, with a lesser number of human masters ensuring the bots are working and learning to be better bots.

Take information security, an area I’m studying as a pastime (retired), an awful lot of tools learned and used by cybersecurity professionals are becoming less relevant with AI bots intervening, therefore infosec is going to have to be increasingly dealt with by counter-intelligent-bots.

People with an understanding of AI and Machine Learning will be the people most in demand. In other words people who make other people’s jobs less relevant, but that’s always been the case with industrial development and “civilisation”.

Yes indeed, very much “socialisation” is conducted online in spite of our enhanced modes of transport to get to one another physically. The trend of working from home means you rarely get to interact socially with colleagues, and naturally once people have learned to enjoy the comforts of wfh since the pandemic, there’s no going back. People just don’t want to re-experience the get up very early and the commute, hard to blame them. WFH might be great in many levels but not psychologically healthy for those living alone / in isolation.

Then jobs which require the presence of workers in the workplace are becoming ever harder to fill, especially hospitality; and transport companies are looking for vehicle drivers, Irish based health services are caving in with workers preferring the comforts of better conditions, accommodation with likes of swimming pool & sunnier climate.

Online sex, btw, is an awkward play of exchanging intimate pictures, usually initiated by a man proudly showing you his appendage and w*n*ing by video call. Sure that bates Banagher!
