These comments are comical. How hard is it to understand that human beings are experiential creatures. Our experiences matter, to survival, to culture, and identity.

I mourn the horse masters and stable boys of a century past because of their craft. Years of intuition and experience.

Why do you watch a chess master play, or a live concert, or any form of human creation?

Should we automate parts of our profession? Yes.

Should he mourn the loss of our craft. Also yes.

Very well put.

Two things are true at the same time, this makes people uneasy.

In fact, contrary things are so very often both true at the same time, in different ways.

Figuring out how to live in the uncomfortableness of non-absolutes, how to live in a world filled with dualisms, is IMO one of the primary and necessary maturities for surviving and thriving in this reality.

		Yes. Unwillingness to accept contradicting data points is holding many people back. They have an unconscious need to always pick one or the other, and that puts them at a disadvantage. "I know what I think." But no, you do not.
