Thank you Rich and it does look interesting.
Rich You are right about the AI.

Here you are Wyot, you may like this.

I listened to this excellent podcast earlier in the year, with the old TV science & space broadcaster James Burke as a guest talking to the late Howard Hughes who very sadly died a few days ago unexpectedly just after I mentioned his Unexplained podcast to Green Man. What timing.

He talks here at one point about AI literally taking everyone's need to do almost anything in the not very far future. You sound like you might be interested so I'll leave the link to it here on Apple podcasts where I get all my listening. They play alright for anyone straight from the site without a login or membership.

The Unexplained with Howard Hughes - Episode 792 - 18th February 2024 - Guest: James Burke

Wyot, to think that when I was at school in the 80's they were telling us that in the near future when we grew up we would have so much leisure time we wouldn't know what to do with it due to technology changing. This was said time and again.



I think they were just a little premature for our generation Rich. But with AI it is coming. It will do everything, unless as you say, we are all about to be anihilated because of a few fragile egos with all the missiles. Then we will all have an eternity of leisure time, let's hope!

What next, school supper clubs for those to have an evening snack or meal because they have to hang about after school because the parents aren't home for them?


The trouble is Rich school ends in the middle of the afternoon against a working day, and we have set up a society/economy where most couples both have to work to have any hope of any quality of life. To the detriment of the children.

Nothing I was told in school back then has actually come true, but perhaps nuclear world war 3 is about to, they might get that right.

so the only point of it is so parents can work instead of looking after their child.


I would be interested to know how many parents would prefer not to have to work as well as their spouse, and look after their children instead? As it is most couples can't pay a mortgage or afford rent unless both are working. Crazy way to set up a society if you want well nurtured children.
