      @Climatehistories they are not simply selling it back. they made this huge amount of knowledge accessible, similar to what search engines tried to do, but much better in terms of accessibility.

            I see a future where CEOs, not human intelligence, are commodities, like electricity or water, that companies can buy on street corners for a pittance.

                        Okay, that's it.
                        I'm seriously starting a new religion; I'm a Butlerian now.

                        Butlerianism, needless to say, is a religion of peace. But why, yes, we *do* aknowledge the concept of a rightful Jihad - what made you ask?

                                @Climatehistories make higher education either impossible to get or so expensive nobody can afford it, then charge a subscription that allows them to earn money in a professional role, education is the only thing that doesn't have a lifelong subscription requirement, they want to change that...

                                  @Climatehistories before Altman can sell us intelligence, he will first have to steal it from the technical journal publishers, I suppose.

                                    In response to that post about Altman’s ‘future of intelligence', @Kierkegaanks suggested I watch the movie Idiocracy. (Thank you!)
                                    I did last night, and I’d recommend it.

                                    It's technically a comedy, but also a disturbingly accurate preview of the United States and its proud, ongoing project of engineering stupidity.

                                      @Climatehistories @Kierkegaanks I hate the eugenicist intro - idiocracy is happening before our eyes not because of genetics / population dynamics ("nature"), but due to societal ("nurture") effects. Both the idiots in charge, and their voter/user base are not inbred, they have some decent level of education and are not extremely poor.

                                        @rubinjoni @Climatehistories That minute is definitely subpar

                                          @rubinjoni @Kierkegaanks Agreed, it's not the best introduction.

                                          Still, the point connects to a broader issue.
                                          The basic ability to reason, decide, and choose, particularly when it comes to women deciding what happens to their own bodies.
