Re-skilling Has To Be MUCH WIDER With A STRONG FOUNDATION.

A Huge AMOUNT Of Our Everyday Thinking - Powerful, CREATIVE, And Resonant STUFF - Is Done Socially: Talking To Other PEOPLE, ARGUING With Them, Relying On Them To Recall Information For Us.

We Now Think Of INTERNAL Representation As Great Big Vectors, And We Do Not Think Of Logic As The Paradigm For How To Get Things To Work. We Just Think You Can Have These Great Big Neural Nets That LEARN, And So, INSTEAD Of Programming, You Are Just Going To Get Them To Learn EVERYTHING.

But In My Imagination This Whole THING DEVELOPED And I Started MIXING Up Old FOLK Songs With The Beatles Beat And TAKING Them Down To Greenwich Village And Playing Them For The People There.

You Can Get Anything ONLINE, Including Things That Don't Even EXIST. We've Invented Our Own Collective Unconscious. The NORMAL Rules Of Time And Space Don't Apply.

My Position Has Been Consistent That Middle CLASS FAMILIES Should Not PAY More TAXES. That Hasn't Changed.
