I think dependence on artificial intelligence - like the internet, calculator and the cell phone - makes us just plain dumber. Cell phones: How many phone numbers did you know by heart? I must have know about 12 numbers of my friends and/or girlfriends. Calculators: Kids are losing the ability to do math. The internet: Einstein said "Why try and remember everything when you can just look it up?!" (or something to that effect). Kids today know "Hey Siri: convert pounds to kilograms" and they get an answer. Convert ˚F to ˚C (or even ˚Kelvin). Even we depend on wire gauge charts and cable resistance charts. I remember the engineers notebook. Thicker than a telephone book and FILLED with factoids. All of which are more easily looked up on the internet. At least looking that stuff up in a book made you remember certain tidbits. We're trading real intelligence for artificial intelligence. And it's leading us down a rabbit hole. LOOK AT THIS POST! No misspelled words. I don't even need to know how to spell. Spell check and auto correct take care of all that for me. Note: I do spell pretty good. Fat finger corrections are appreciated.

And now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Your brain has been freed to think more valuable thoughts.

Whether you do or not is up to you.

 

Note: I do spell pretty good.

But your grammar is not so well [sic].

You don't need to login or have an account to watch that video. Plus you could always open it in an incognito window if you want to keep things private.

 

Hello,

The clip wont play.
I do not want that for watching the clip.

Here's the same scene posted in YouTube:

 

I would love for her to tie me up with her golden lasso and make me tell the truth.

What would you say if she asked 'Is that your real face or just an avatar?'

 

But your grammar is not so well [sic].

Note: I do spell pretty well. (Used "Proofread" tool. OK ? ? ?) j.k.

 

Your brain has been freed to think more valuable thoughts.

Whether I'm ABLE to - that's no longer up to me.

 

What would you say if she asked 'Is that your real face or just an avatar?'

Linda Carter, young, in real life?

She don't need no stinkin' golden lasso.

 

Note: I do spell pretty well. (Used "Proofread" tool. OK ? ? ?) j.k.

So do I: P-R-E-T-T-Y.
