A roboticist is a person who designs, builds, programs, and experiments with robots.

Humans With Amplified Intelligence Could Be More Powerful Than AI
With much of our attention focused the rise of advanced artificial intelligence, few consider the potential for radically amplified human intelligence (IA). It’s an open question as to which will come first, but a technologically boosted brain could be just as powerful — and just as dangerous – as AI.
Elitism
50% below average IQ. We’re lucky not to get a UKIP-type surge more often. Elitist? Well I admit I’d rather be GOVERNED by an elite.

This is discussion on FB with Dutch speakers ironically about robotics and the end of jobs. The person I was talking with, reponded with this reply
De ontwikkeling gaat steeds verder, maar het zal toch eerst het geestdodende werk worden dat wordt gerobotiseerd.
Ook de pizzabakker blijft …
Using Facebook’s auto translate, I got this.
The development will continue, but it will still work the stultifying first be being robotised.
Also remains the pizza…
I jumped on Google’s Translate and got this.
The development is progressing, but it will first be drudgery that robotized.

California Is On The Verge Of Water Abundance
It will not happen overnight, but California is on the verge of a hydro-revolution; the beginning of a radical transformation that will dramatically increase the amount of available water. It has already happened in other parts of the world. From where we stand today, this transformation sounds quite unlikely. There are those in California who believe we should return to a desert landscape, retire what has become the most productive agricultural region in the world and live with what little water nature provides. Fortunately, we have overcome even greater obstacles and water abundance in California is not only possible, it is inevitable. The foundation for this water revolution is already in place.

- Basic Income
- Cryptocurrencies
- Automation
For a policy proposal that has an approximately 0 percent chance of being passed by the US Congress right now, universal basic income is an uncommonly hot topic. The idea that every body should receive a paycheck simply for being alive is fast becoming a darling of several factions: tech investors who expect millions of jobs to be automated out of existence, libertarians who see it as a way to avoid the inefficiencies of the traditional welfare state, and certain lefties who have embraced it as part of a way to separate government benefits from work. Dylan Matthews of Vox has produced a string of primers on the subject, and The Atlantic recently profiled a Reddit-famous basic income advocate. Yet the idea goes against everything Republicans are supposed to believe about no free rides, as well as Democrats’ preference for welfare programs designed from on high. Even if there were solid mainstream support for basic income, Congress can barely do anything these days, much less consider a wholesale redistribution of wealth.
