The VERY BEST short essay I have read for a long time.

The VERY BEST short essay I have read for a long time. Succeeds in bringing to the forefront the uniqueness on embodiment, which no machine will ever be able to achieve, and how it is highly connected to what we call "consciousness".
Animal intelligence, human in particular, is able to navigate - usually well - in the huge complexity of the non-ergodic reality. This is so because the brain is not just a powerful computing box (like a computer with a millions GPU's), it is part of a bio-system which integrate hugely different sensing and acting components, seamlessly. And this system is futher enhanced by societal & cultural interactions,
Although it is not stated here explicitly, it turns out that this extraordinary complex assembly of molecules, organized as an effective intertwine of prior (DNA encoded) networks and learned fusions and behaviours IS a simplified model of the world around us, close enough that it is generally able to cope effectively with any situation (the elusive common-sense)
All those who entertain the illusion of AGI should read Margaret Boden. But I doubt they will, for being blinded by ideology and tunnel vision of just looking at 1 of 2 dimensions while reality is made of zillions.
Just the short metaphorical paragraph that describes some of the reasons (intentions) why we would go to a bakery to buy a piece of bread is a jewel with the deep quality of a classic.
I find it even amazing that a short piece of natural language, written in an easy-going style, is able to carry a message of such depth. No equation, no bull or hype; just thoughts.
If you only have time for reading a piece to-day, this is the one!

Is the time of the farmer, the teacher, and the laborer over?

Is the time of the farmer, the teacher, and the laborer over? This popular question has been asked with increasing frequency since the appearance of the Sophia robot, which has been an inspiration to many. Scientists predict that in the future most jobs will be done by robotics. Now is the time to learn programing, which will enable you to code your own robotics and ensure that you can find a job in the future.
