The writhing was pretty much at the wall in 2014. Maybe the west should have sent weapons to ukraine back then

Came here to say this but knew someone would have beaten me to it 😂

That's because the reality hasn't actually changed. Only now we want to pretend we don't risk ww3 by poking Russian when arming Ukrainians. Think about it if you're kid gets killed in combat do you really make the distinction between a fighter plan provided skirting law or a straght up ally of your enemy. We arm Ukraine knowing they will use it to kill Russians and then act like we aren't provoking war. It didn't work on Japan in ww2.... not going to work this time. The best we can hope for is not getting a cyber equivalent of pearl harbor. If anyone understood how vulnerable both our economy and infrastructure is they wouldn't be poking Russia. Putin is old. The idea that we can't back down is stupid. He is old enough we don't have to deal with him much longer if we just delay ww3.

And because even though productivity constantly rises, we still insist on 40 hours week as a full time job. Cut every job down to 20 hours with the same pay, eliminate jobs that just exist because they were artificially created, lean full on automation and we'd be better off as a society. Fewer hours worked means even more productivity (because you're fresh, you can concentrate, you don't check social media every 5min), it means being healthier and having fewer sick days, it means spending more time with your kids helping them into becoming better people.

Stirling’s not really a ballerina OR a rock star, but ok.

@@e32b61 She absolutely is. Combines traditional choreography with some kickass music. Expand your definition of "rock star" ;P

NoName DrumGuy I'm not going to debate the merits of anyone's music. But let's start off by saying that ballerina is right out. Having choreography in your shows doesn't make you a ballerina just because you took serious ballet lessons as a kid. Second- you can layer all the EDM and Hot Topic/Evanescence-inspired steam punk outfits you want over your autotuned covers of Nu Metal songs, but at the end of the day: A Mormon who plays the violin cannot not be a rockstar. Not even if you do all the things mentioned above. I am being a little facetious, but not much. Again, this is not about the quality of her music. It just isn't rock and roll. "Rock star" is not a compliment. It's a job description. David Bowie and Klaus Noomi were both awesome. Only one was a rock star.

Nope. Vanessa Carlton is closer (well, pop star ballerina, not rock). She did at least train at a highly professional level in ballet. Even then, there is a difference in being a professional ballet dancer or a "ballerina". Though misused, the term actually applies to a rare sort of pedigree at the top of her particular style in the ballet world. Please stop calling anyone who took Dolly Dinkle classes at age 5 a "ballerina".

I saw her live and I was 100% thinking the same thing. One of the most incredible performances I've ever seen. Her choreography is unbelievable considering she's doing it all while playing the violin. And yes it is real. She accidentally dropped her violin on stage.

John, Andrew Yang goes into depth about this exact topic. I know other media think he is simply a joke, but I think while unsustainable in our current era, his ideas are far before their time. I think your program could give him a just and balanced investigative report. Instead of how both sides of the mainstream media fear him and label him a crackpot.

It's simply the nature of a free global market. When competition can come from anywhere in the world, the best, cheapest products win with consumers, and the cheapest labor allows the companies who make them to succeed and grow. Location is no longer an issue, as goods and talent can be sourced and moved from anywhere. It's a mistake to think of this as anyone's "fault," it is simply the world we live in.

@@danielshults5243 The 'fault' implied here is by inherently bigoted people who ignore this very obvious aspect of the changing job market and convince an entire voter base that the problem is solely caused predominantly by one outside country and then stirs up hatred for people from that country, until eventually the president is shutting down the government and declaring a national emergency in order to force funding for a wall across the southern border.

There is no way that can be done without a fight. And when you look at the issue you should not think it as an American problem, people are exploited all over the world. Even if they throw you a bone time to time - it is done by over exploiting other workers in other corners of the world. There is no American vs Russian vs German vs Chinese. There is Worker vs Exploitators. Remember this when the capital brings about the next world war.

The occupation done by humans keeps changing all the time.Yes ppl will lose jobs but that doesn’t mean u should stop automation which will have far more dire consequences than losing jobs.Issues like poverty can never be completely solved,we can only reduce the impact it has on the poorest ppl in the country.Our only hope for this is education only cuz every policy implemented will start becoming outdated due to the current progress rate of humans.Even if America wants to implement some really good plan,it will affect it economically which will lead to the country falling behind...leading to larger loss of soft power,influence,etc....so u see we have to come up with something on a global scale...

Automation scares me. Currently I feel very vulnerable in my position. Dont get me wrong automation made my job easier but it no longer feels fulfilling. To keep it short I work in a NOC for a fairly large company. Automation is capable of finding and dispatching issues before you can blink an eye. A few years ago that was not the case. For example on an average night we may have 5 or 6 people staffed. I'm convinced we could cut staffing down to 2 people a night on average because of how much automation handles now for us. Give it a few years and won't need anyone.

Bernie would probably turn to someone like Yang for advice on issues like these.

I think this is the point about us not being able to imagine what jobs of the future will look like. How have you been this past two years?

I've been getting into computer programming and one example of this I think people don't fully understand is how programmers are trained to program such that we don't need to program the same things. Fundamentally, the only thing a human can really do that is indefinitely "workable" is come up with ideas of things that *don't exist* and make them exist. Being able to come up with solutions to problems that don't exist, nobody asked for, but everyone wants is an extremely *human* thing that is far more rewarding than making roughly same 5 machines or writing roughly the same 5 programs with some variation..maybe even making 5 different neural nets every day if you're all fancy every day 5 days a week.. The problem with the *fear of automation* or anyone's push against it is that the *people that hate the job the most* are the ones that are being innovative enough to find ways to automate it. . Look at that guy who doesn't want their son to be a lumberjack, THOSE are the types of people *all humans* can become if we don't limit ourselves to thinking in a bubble of 1 career path for life. Only when we are able to break the chains society places on us that label us as one thing or another can we truly open our mind enough to fix the MANY problems that the world faces when you have thousands of different career paths unknowingly and often unwillingly screwing up the world because it's just them doing what they know how to do. People call them "Renascence Men & Women" but I like to call them what they really are... "Human beings".

I think the point is that people in that day thought the same thing, that certain jobs or tasks were safe or that they’d be completely wiped out which just hasn’t been the case. There will always be a need for humans, whether that’s inherent to the job or simply people’s preference or comfort level… as that changes, which it inevitably will, more jobs will be created to circumvent that issue.

"Previous automation largely replaced muscle power for doing physical work and extremely narrow computational tasks. Automation has never before threatened the usefulness of the human brain before." "The average human worker will not have the extensive education and technical knowledge to take advantage of the new jobs created by AI, of which there will be far fewer than jobs that are automated away." So, it was fine when we were putting non-college educated blue collar workers out of the job, while also not putting in any effort to fund retraing for them so they could be gainfully employed elsewhere, but now that white collar workers are on the chopping block, it's a problem?

@@br-ig3pr yes? I thought that was a pretty objectively good thing to do. We, as a society and generally as a species, want less labor intensive tasks and more mentally intensive ones since that’s what advances society. Either that or it would help with the labor intensive tasks requiring less people and time to complete the task. This isn’t a class warfare thing, it’s helping laborers so we’ll need less laborers and can do more shit. If you’re going from the “top” rather than the bottom you’re stifling that growth unless done in a very particular manner.
