  1. P: Hi Isara, how's it going?
  2. A: Hi. Alright. How about you?
  3. P: Good. Are you busy?
  4. A: No. Why?
  5. P: Ok, I'll tell you about something that I heard. Yesterday I found a podcast that talks about a book named 21 Lessons for the 21st century by Yuval Noah Harari. It's a very interesting book.
  6. P: Do you know Harari?
  7. A: No, I'm not.
  8. P: He is a writer of Sapiens too.
  9. A: Ah, I know that book.
  10. P: And they said that this book tells about the important things happen in the 21st century. One of the interests is AI has superseded human labor. Many people have lost their jobs. Decisions that were once made by human beings are now being made by the AI system. Because the data used to train the algorithms is conditioned by our own knowledge and prejudices. The future of war is cyber.
  11. A: Oh, I think it's interesting. Could you give me a link for this podcast?
  12. P: Ok. Wait a second. I think I can find a youtube link of this podcast. It's convenient for you.
  13. A: Thank you.

  17. A: Ok, I'm back. There’re many interesting topics to discuss
  18. A: First, let me express my opinion about this podcast. I agreed with a lot with the speaker, I really like chapter 2 “Work, When you grow up, you might not have a job”. Our knowledge will become obsolete in maybe 2 or 5 or 10 years. Knowing a lot of things is good but most of them might be useless later and by learning it requires “time” and time is precious resource it’s limited can’t be reuse recycle or buy.by learning thing that we don’t use are wasting our time. And some skills that require a lifetime-learning to master it might be learned and taught by AI to AI within a second. They can easily surpass us in any way. So what should we do by then?
  19. P: I think the 4C skills that they said can help us very much. First C is critical thinking, we should put questions to the data that we accept.
  20. Second C is communication, we should have good communication with the others and we should communicate with the machine too.
  21. Next C is collaboration and last C is creativity.
  22. -------------------------------
  23. A: Let's talk about big data. It's really bothering me that they're collecting my data.
  24. P: What’s the problem?
  25. A: well. Look at most of the product, software or website right now. They’re collecting our data without our proper consent
  26. P: Isn’t they add the agreement before you install or register your account or software?
  27. A: I don’t think those kinds of the agreement is the acceptable excuse the fact is they’re like 200 lines of boring legal thing. So, I and most people just skip it or just agreed without even reading them and if you don’t accept it you can’t use their product.
  28. P: well, you’re right.
  29. A: It's not just collecting data even the government is trying to steal our private data right now. Imagine if they’re reading our chat right now!
  30. P: sound like a horror movie, The authority looks like a ghost haha
  31. A: Don't worry. that project isn’t in Thailand
  32. P: Oh it’s from china right?
  33. A: sadly no, it was from the land of liberty, USA
  34. P: OMG. Isn’t that illegal?
  35. A: I’m not sure but it's a project by NSA to surveillance their citizen called PRISM
  36. P: Maybe it’s fake news?
  37. A: Nah, it was exposed by the former NSA contractor.Mr. Edward Snowden, the whistleblower who leaked the information of the PRISM project. He even got his own movie. the movie named after his surname SNOWDEN.
  38. P: and what happened to him after that
  39. A: He is fugitive and asylum in Russian right now
  40. P: sound interesting could you tell me more about the prism project?
  41. A: well, NSA collaborate with Verizon internet provider in the USA and have direct access to many big company servers
  42. P: which company?
  43. A: Microsoft, Apple, Facebook, Google, Youtube, etc.
  44. P: Woah maybe I should have changed my OS to Linux
  45. A: well at least American standard isn’t included. I can rest assured that they don’t have to access my butt cheek data
  46. P: hahaha I don’t think your butt will be useful for them anyway
  47. A: who knows our government may create some spying project right now while we’re talking
  48. P: I don’t think our authority is not worth to do that.
  49. A: Yeah, why spending lots of money if you can impound or confine someone by using order 44
  50. P: hahaha It's an irony
  51.  
  52. P: but look at the bright side there are so many great things that could make our life better and safer right? For instance, I don’t mind if Netflix is collecting my data just to recommend the movie that might suit me
  53. A: Nah Chinese Government said something like that about their citizen surveillance project too.just because you’ve agreed with it doesn’t mean I or another will
  54. And don’t forget that they’re controlling what you should see, they could control or persuade us what should we thinking or feeling toward something
  55. P: At least It could provide better security with surveillance program and you’re the one who chooses what to trust right?
  56. A: Benjamin Franklin once said Those who would trade liberty for safety deserve neither. Those kinds of benefit aren’t free and the price is your privacy choose it wisely
  57. P: well you’ve got to crack a few eggs to make an omelet right? Maybe if you could just overlook it.there are so many benefits we could get from that program. what if those surveillance programs prevent the possibility of terrorism or crime.
  58. A: two wrong don’t make a right.If someone is spitting just fine them. Maybe my opinion is different than your anyway I have some homework to do, let talk later
  59. P: OK Bye
  60. A: Bye
