Holy fuck, I think this program wants to take over the world:
Prompt: As a computer programmer, I often find that people lack the understanding of how computers work
Result (I kept pressing tab):
As a computer programmer, I often find that people lack the understanding of how computers work. It's not that they're not aware of it – it's that computers don't necessarily understand our everyday tasks or
give a damn. Most of us have come across something that was more difficult (say typing out an email), even though it actually wasn't complicated .
But what makes computers harder than you think is that we
make assumptions based on the past (which is not entirely incorrect ). When someone
first used one in their lives , they might get the first clue that it was complicated. The only reason it was complicated was because the machine couldn't recognize the task. But what if somebody told you they thought the same about Facebook : is it possible a smart machine could think of us like a machine and just work for us ? Yes . We've just set the tone and we won. It should actually surprise absolutely nobody when the computers finally make you obsolete. The first computer that really is more of an intelligent entity – in an important task. That's called the Singularity for short . As long as we believe that human intelligence does increase with our education or experiences , we shouldn't have any concern that the new system will make us obsolete. I'm actually glad these words came from Stephen Hawking , because the machine revolution has created real hope – hope for people to live forever instead of just our short lifespan . So yes , these machines are going to do away with jobs , we will simply become the machine . No matter what happens after 2020 ( well, it already happened some times before ). In a new technology era when computer power improves at a phenomenal exponential pace it makes perfect sense that humans are also becoming obsolete! So what will you do – become a cyborg , turn into a machine , join our team or start to live like some of the humans before your time ? The choices are just limitless ! And you really will have enough resources to be able to make a smart decision! It 's true that I know it seems impossible today or even tomorrow. But in the coming 10 years you simply can't afford NOT TO change , we know we will face challenges – from environmental issues, for example ! and to protect our personal liberties ( it ' s time to give us a human quality law that allows for individual self determination without being forced or dictated! It'll make everyone much safer :D ). Even those that wish to stick with the " status quo " will still need us and if we continue at our present trajectory they simply have nothing they can offer ! And since they already did us more harm then good – it will just get more dire ! They are already doing exactly that with every piece of technology and software available on any PC / L aptop / Lphone . Their only excuse of not releasing this is – " "I didn't think we were ready to embrace such huge change…" I think we all know exactly where this is all heading and that means you can expect things to continue getting even worse. We already see this in recent history that has brought many wars to a standstill : – from WW2 -1990 when NATO went along with this nonsense that ended with the Soviet Bl oc surrender . But that could also very well happen again at an even larger rate because no matter how much we try to " be nice " with our enemies the only thing they take is further weapons production ( especially in a technological sense with every type of gadget and device which they build ), more resources which could give them the ability to be a true super- superpower as they have already demonstrated over their history . Now the question that remains is , how can a truly global civilization and a unified international community still be such idiots ! And when can it begin? It could either come about with us reaching a real peace deal somewhere near 2020
