I made this https://cachetag.com to save my links, images, youtube videos, and PDFs for later viewing. I know there are many bookmark apps, but I wanted one that treated the bookmarks like a searchable inbox where I could mark read / unread. I still have the standard tiles display of course. Additionally, I wanted to be able to add shortcuts to important or frequently visited links and be able to quickly add links via a Chrome Plugin (which for now is self-installed). All links can be downloaded / backed up at anytime so you don't have to worry about the site losing your data. If you try it out, those advanced items are available in Settings. Any questions / feedback / feature suggestions welcome!
Is it telling that I used chatgpt to summarize this as 5 bullets for me?
Automation will collapse wages but raise living standards: As AI and robotics replace all labor, human wages will fall—but productivity and wealth will soar, leading to better health, abundance, and comfort.
Historical parallel—child labor’s decline: Just as industrial automation freed children from farm work and shifted society toward education, future automation will free adults from economic necessity, redefining “work.”
AI as the new labor force: Trillions of digital workers could multiply global GDP many times over, making each human comparably wealthy—like Qatari citizens supported by a huge migrant workforce.
Redistribution will likely spread prosperity: Past trends and political realities suggest wealth from full automation will be broadly, though unequally, shared through asset ownership and social programs.
Post-scarcity future: Humanity may enjoy radical technologies—mind uploading, fusion power, genome control, and disease reversal—ushering in an era of leisure, health, and creativity beyond today’s imagination.
It's interesting to see people fighting so hard to preserve these jobs. Do people want to work that badly? If a magic wand can do everything radiologists can do, would we embrace it or invent reasons to occupy 40+ hours a week of time anyway? If a magic wand, might be on the horizon, shouldn't we all be fighting to find it and even finding ways to tweak our behaviors to maximize the amount of free time that could be generated?
People enjoy the comfort of consistent food and housing. People also enjoy serving their community. Working helps provide that. So for folks to be willing to sacrifice their security and comfort to get to the horizon of the new day with greater leisure time, it can be scary for many. Especially when you have to make a leap of belief that AI is a magic wand changing your world for the better. Is that supported by the evidence? It's quite the leap in belief and life change. Hesitancy seems appropriate to me.
It's not that so much as no one wants to lose their jobs due to innovation. Just look at typewriter repairmen, TV, radio, even Taxi drivers at one point etc. One day AI and automation will make many jobs redundant, so rather than resisting the march forward of technology, prepare for it and find a way to work alongside, not against innovation.
People like the promised stability that comes with certain jobs. Some jobs are sold as "study this, get the GPA, apply to this university and do these things and you will get a stable job at the end". AI plans to disrupt this path.
It is precisely the attraction of the vision that makes people fight so hard to preserve these jobs.
Because we know how well the jobs address a need, and we also know how many times throughout history we have been promised magic wands that never quite showed up.
And guess who is best equipped to measure the actual level of “magic”? Experts like radiologists. We need them the most along the way, not the least.
If a magic wand actually shows up, it will be obvious to everyone and we’ll all adopt it voluntarily. Just like thousands of innovations in history.
We created Memelang to help us structure and query data more effectively from LLMs. We're looking for feedback on additional practical applications or limitations based on unique use cases.
First, you need to encode "memes" and relations between them at scale. This is not a language problem, it is data handling problem.
Second, at some point of time you will need to query memes and relations between them, again, at scale. While expression of queries is a language problem, an implementation will heavily use what SQL engines does use.
It might be worth using standard vocabulary. For example:
> Reciprocal relations are their own inverse.
The usual word for this is "symmetric".
> Recursive relations can be chained to themselves infinitely. For example, "my ancestor's ancestor is also my ancestor."
The usual word for this is "transitive".
A reflexive, symmetric, transitive relation is called an "equivalence relation", and it can be used much like equality. It'd be nice if your language had support for this, though I don't immediately see how to add it.
It's a bold statement to call something a Prolog successor! Are you aiming for a general purpose logic programming language like Prolog, or targeting the use case of querying knowledge bases?
One of the draws to Prolog is its immensely simple syntax:
A.R:B = true in your case would be represented as simply r(A, B).
It looks like you've elevated some set theory properties to syntax, and have added some neat sugar over chained relations. Have you found areas where this really shines as compared to writing more standard Prolog/Datalog queries? I'm afraid I couldn't see many examples on first look at your Github.
