What is the highlight of human civilization?
We'll get serious. All right, don't check your stocks. They're neither up nor down. They're kind of moving sideways. Nothing to see there. Let me get my comments going, and then we'll put on a show, the show you deserve, even if you don't. Good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. This is Scott Adams and
You've never had a better time, but if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need is a cup or mug or a glass or tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it's going to happen right now. Go. Perfect. That's just what I needed. Well, in Texas, somebody 3D printed a Starbucks. It's one of those big 3D printers that does concrete walls.
How will AI change coffee making?
And it's just a little drive-through, so there's no internal seating, so it's a small one. But how long before robots can make the coffee? Oh, turns out that's my next story. Global Coffee Report says that AI robots will soon be making your morning coffee, maybe. Don't you want that? Wouldn't you love to tell your robot to make you a fancy coffee? You know, the reason most people don't make a fancy coffee for themselves is it's just way too much work and time and pain in the ass and you got to clean up and all that. But if your robot did all of that, I'd make my robot make me some serious coffee. It'd be the best coffee I ever saw. That's Kevin. My little local mall in my town had a coffee robot for a while.
And it looked like it was more demonstration. It was before AI. It was a few years ago. And I remember I tried it once, but I accidentally ordered the wrong thing. But once the robot starts making the thing, you can't really stop it. So I had to stand there for what seemed like 10 minutes while this stupid robot made me a cup of coffee that was the wrong thing. And then I just paid for it and threw it away. So it wasn't a perfect robot coffee-making experience. I think it'll get better with AI. I don't know if it's still the case, but early this morning, the lights and the electricity were off in Portugal, Spain, and a big part of France. Now, I don't think they know exactly why. I assume it's not cybersecurity.
some kind of cybercrime, because I don't know who would go after Portugal, Spain, and parts of France. That would be a weird target. But they're dealing with that. It kind of reminds you how fragile civilization is. My guess is there's one piece of equipment that went bad, and it took three countries out of civilization.
What are the implications of the intention economy?
so we'll keep an eye on that and see what the hell is going on with that that's pretty scary well the brighter side of news is reporting that the attention economy is turning into the intention economy which I had not been exposed to before so attention is all your social media where they're trying to get your attention because if they have your attention you look at advertising and they win But with AI, they're going to move to an intention, meaning they're going to figure out what it is you're likely to want, maybe before you even know it. And so they'll be looking at your intentions to give you what you want. You can say goodbye to your illusion of free will, because once your AI gets good enough to know what you want and starts giving it to you before you even knew you wanted it,
Why would he even make decisions? Because it's going to be right. Every now and then you might have to correct. It's like, well, no, I don't have time for that cup of coffee. You were going to make me a robot. But the intention economy has way more ramifications than just how they sell advertisements. The ramification is that we come to understand that free will is an illusion. It's a big deal. But I know you're not ready for that yet. Popular Mechanics has a story that says that somebody somehow found a chemical fingerprint on Stonehenge. Do you believe they found a fingerprint on Stonehenge? I'm not sure I even believe the first part of the story. But according to them, if they're right, it means that the giant stones came from a different place than they've been telling us for years.
