The era of the Industrial Revolution mechanized humans. In today’s information age, machines are increasingly humanized, exemplified by artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence combines with robots to take over tasks traditionally performed by humans, leading to what is known as mechanical unemployment. This trend is referred to as the phenomenon of dehumanization, which concerns many laborers. However, the burger shop ‘Creator’ in San Francisco has embraced robots, selling burgers at an appealing price of $6 each, sparking considerable discussion. Rather than having a human operate like a machine, robots are utilized, while humans engage with customers, consult personalized recipes, and serve the burgers. This situation illustrates how advanced mechanization can help restore genuine humanity. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The "normal human body temperature = 37°C" standard was established in 1851 by the German medical doctor "Carl Reinhold August Wunderlich", who took millions of temperature readings from about 25,000 people and reported "36.2°C to 37.5°C". However, surveys in the United States in 1992 and the United Kingdom in 2017 found 36.8°C and 36.6°C, respectively. So in the past people deemed that the discrepancy was due to errors in old measuring equipment or methods. But Julie Parsonnet and her colleagues at Stanford University's School of Infectious Disease Epidemiology found a common thread in the temperature databases: People are cooler now than they were then. It wasn't just a measurement error. They speculated that medical advances had reduced inflammation and lowered the average temperature. We don't question the obvious. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
