However, social credit is not working for the Chinese very well. Imagine a time when you cannot start your car because you offended someone on social media. When AI doesn\u2019t like your choice in blogs, music and political speech. There are oh, so many ways to silently pressure you to conform. Cranky internet speeds, debit card refusals even though you know you have money in the bank. AI will make a wonderful servant, but an awful master.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, people need work, something to do. I agree that idle hands are the devil\u2019s workshop. I can get into trouble if idle too long. I tend to think \u201cwhat if I do this?\u201d. Like the time I took a 4 bore rifle and changed out the solid slugs for explosive dumdums when the weather had been gray and gloomy for two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Or the time the blasting boss at a local quarry was on vacation. Then his second came down with something nasty but temporary. That left the rookie in charge of blasting. The owner, whom I know, was worried about this youngster being in charge of that much BOOM, so I said I would \u201chelp\u201d him. It was glorious from my prospective and we shifted twice the rock tonnage and kept the quarry on schedule. However, the seismographs at the major university about 50 miles away noticed the sudden change in activity, triangulated it, and the ATF visited. The owner said to please go back to the old method. So we did until the blasting master returned from vacation.<\/p>\n<p>Idle hands.<\/p>\n<p>The problem is finding\u00a0<strong>gainful<\/strong>\u00a0work for people. Real work. Not the equivalent of counting the hairs on a caterpillar by touch sort of thing. That will be the hard part. You remember why Henry Ford had to pay such high wages for the time? Assembly lines bored people to death. They would quit if he didn\u2019t. Repetitive work is boring as hell, as I found out pulling mess duty as a private. A common punishment for minor infractions while on mess duty was to peel enough potatoes to feed 3,000 Marines each meal. Or onions. Made you shape up pretty quick. Now, modern messes buy bags of peeled, chopped onions and potatoes.<\/p>\n<p>Solving the problem of machine efficiency vs human boredom is going to be tough. Machines don\u2019t get bored. Machines don\u2019t get into trouble when idle. Humans can get into all sorts of mischief if left to their own devices too long.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>war pig Valid points.
