I like that the more AI we do, the more people like you move the definition.

Also, the turing test is useless fro practical AI, becasue specialty AI is far more valuable then AI that's just like a human.

There are many computer systems that make decisions. THey are better in their specialty than humans, but are easily known as computers becasue they can
t tell you what the weather is like.

Entire global logistic system make decisions on their own.

Yes, and it's very likely some people at the time WHERE paying for food, just not in money like we know it. I wouldn't be surprised if there where people who where exceptional with tools, so there addition to society was improve spears.

What they couldn't imagine is that people would work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week year in and out.

Except we are running out of jobs, as shown by an increase in GDP and a decrease in average income.

I am sick and tired of idiots that claim everything will be fine even though the economics and data show otherwise.

BTW: The Luddites were right. There jobs DID go away. I say this because you probably know as much about Luddites as you do about economics; which is to say nothing.

Automation is getting so advanced, that you won't need anyone to make or bring ideas to reality. You will just order it.

Where do people go when farming is automated? construction? burger flippers?

People like you said the same thing about automotive robots. but a the end of the day a lot fewer people were needed to make cars.
All this is a good thing, we just need to realize the current capitalist system will collapse under the new pressure.

Most office workers do actual work for only 4 hours a day. This is a propped up system based on time in the seat and not actual work done.

Except automation started replacing more jobs then it created at the end of the 90s.

I wrote a piece of automation software that put 10,000+ people out of work in a year. Most the people where office workers approving loans. Most where 35+.

What, exactly did they go off and create? What new jobs were created? Office around the country were closed, so what happened ti the urtiary markets? Oh, it fell apart and never recovered.

You're examples are from a industrial age where there where a lot of open and variable resources, no global logistics, and mostly lead to MORE people being unemployed then employed based on volume of work.

Average income is dropping, but GDP is rising.

your example requires that an increase in consumerism to hold out, but that can not happen with income droppin, and debt climbing.

That is why you pay OK, but have great benefits and retirement.

Nope. You really should learn to understand what you link to and learn how to look up basic facts.

1969 average salary: ~8600 adj. for inflation in 2014: ~55K

2014 average teacher pay: $56,383

From your link you didn't seem to understand:
" Instruction expenditures include salaries and benefits of teachers and teaching assistants as well as costs for instructional materials and instructional services provided under contract."

Look, you really need to stop looking at a graph and assume it proves your point because the bars are higher. YOu need to start UNDERSTANDING your links and what they say. You really look like a moron. I don't think you are a moron, I just think you haven't bothered to train yourself to think things through.

"Free market capitalism builds competition for the sake of the consumer/client/user and it pushes prices down and you will not find teachers who would agree to that type of competition."
nope.

I suggewst you read some fucking history.
What would happen would pretty much parrelly what privatization of the p[rison system has done.

Profit:
Get kids out as fast as you can from low income areas.
Fail kids you know you can charge more for next year
Put 100 students in a class room.

WHat you, and fucktead of your thinking, fail to do is look where the berst schools are. Best school being areas with the highest level of education when kids graduate.

It's not free market areas.

Everybody should be forced to learn about corporate history before have to even mention the free market. SOMething even Smith said wouldn't work in practice.

Twads.

As a rule, it's almost impossible to determine 'bad teacher'. I say almost impossible but no one has been able to come up with a way to determine that.
Yes, some are obvious, but those are tiny amount of teachers.

Teacher do not need to get paid more i most places. Those funds need to go to getting more school and more teachers. Cut their workload in half.

But thats cost money and taxes and people ahve becoime fucking morons regarding taxes.

If it were up to me, I would put a 1 cent a Kw tax on electricity. Just for new schools and more teachers. Thats 40 billion a year, BTW.

Nothing you said is true.

EIther thats a lie, or you didn't care enough to follow up.

I've had disciplinary action happen to 2 teachers through my kids learning career.

Television (TV) is a telecommunication medium that is used for transmitting and receiving moving images and sound.

So yes, computer devices count.

Anyone who says watching TV means shows, not literally staring at a television display unit.

Then build an antenna.

"sometimes logic and reasoning ability"
Nope.

"Television doesn't help anything."
False.

It's about content. I leaned a lot watching TV as a kid. How to draw, about astronomy, physics, the world.

OTOH, what did you learn playing farmville?

Not true, nor has it ever been.
