There is the mirror test. Being able to look into a mirror and recognize that is your own body that you see. Dolphins and chimps can pass this test

> I know that the healthcare system is insane, inflation is running rampant, people are being forced to work multiple jobs, etc. But all this bad stuff is happening because of government intervention into the free market.
But the US spends more as a percentage of per capita GDP on healthcare than countries with universal healthcare systems like Canada, France, the UK....more privatization in healthcare actually creates inefficiency and waste and leads to worse outcomes

Teachers would be medium term winners I think. AI has a ton of potential to automate or ease some of the most annoying parts of the job (generating material, lesson plans, emails) allowing them to focus on the more rewarding parts of the job.
Eventually AI could start to replace teachers but I think it will be a long while before parents are comfortable with a robot watching over their kids
Losers: Data analysts, entry level programmers, accountants

Reply to comment by 141_1337 in Hi, which are your favorite youtubers about futurism? by richybacan69
I noticed that he tends to make sweeping generalizations about vast, diverse communities like Indian and Chinese people which strikes me as kinda racist and reflective of a lack of basic understanding of the regions he is commenting on
As a Canadian his future projections for Canada were hilariously dumb so I imagine his stuff about other regions sounds very uninformed as well to people who live there

I think Geoff's shows have been getting better. They actually had pretty decent reveals last year
Not as good as E3 at it's best, but E3 itself won't be able to top past E3. The big publisher's just don't need these events anymore
