The computer can do everything that man can do.

It has been programmed as our brain is programmed – to be a Catholic, to be a Protestant, to be a Hindu, to be a Buddhist.
4
You understand all this?
5
Of course, your brain is programmed, whether you like it or not,
6
you have to observe it, otherwise you wouldn't call yourself a Hindu or a communist.
7
Christ, your brain has been cultivated through time,
8
and through that time which is the acquisition of experience,
9
knowledge and so on, that brain has been programmed,
10
has been conditioned to respond according to certain reactions, this is inevitable.
11
That brain is now being given over to the computer.
12
Please realise this, the computer is becoming your brain, the human brain.
13
The computer plus the robot are already operating in manufacturing things,
14
like cars, all kinds of things are happening in about ten, fifteen years, you will be unemployed.
15
You have to face all this.
16
Society is going to be turned upside down, it is coming, whether you like it or not,
17
it is at your door.
18
Now, do you understand the seriousness of all this?
19
I wonder if you do.
20
that your brain, which has been so extraordinarily capable,
21
suffered innumerable sorrows, lives in great anxiety,
22
frightened, insecure, the whole psychological world which is the result of thought.
23
That thought, with all its knowledge, is being transferred to the computer and the robot.
24
So man, then what is he – you understand my question?
25
If the computer can do everything that you can, your brain can, which is it can learn,
26
it can correct itself, it can foresee much more than human beings can,
27
its responses are instantaneous, because it is programmed that way,
28
then what is man?
29
You understand all this?
30
The computers say, I believe in God – oh,
31
you people laugh, you don't see this seriousness of all this happening to all of us.
32
The computer can compose a poem,
33
can compose, can diagnose better than any doctor.
34
You understand?
35
And then we ask, one asks, what is man, what are you?
36
If the machine can do everything even better than you, what are you?
37
Which is, our brains have operated mechanically,
38
it believes, it doesn't believe, it creates its own gods,
39
its own philosophies, the computer can create a philosophy, better than any philosopher.
40
So what have we left?
41
You understand my question?
42
If the machine can take over everything that man can do, and do it still better than us,
43
Then what is a human being, what are you?
44
Your belief in God, the machine has a belief in God, it will do rituals better than you can do,
45
it can invent theories better than any philosopher.
46
Do you understand all this?
47
So what have we left?
48
What we have left is our psychological world.
49
You understand?
50
Our sorrow, our fears, our pleasures,
51
our anxieties, our immense loneliness.
52
You understand all this?
53
That is what we are going to be left with.
54
Not with your gods.
55
The gods have been invented by man, by thought.
56
You have shaped gods according to your desires, your fears.
57
So computers can do all that.

什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
