Historici

Oppressed Humanities Grad Student zegt

I'm a terminal PhD student and I hate this job. I hope we get replaced by the machines in near future, including my advisor. A robot would treat his PhD students better.

History is best taught through human because if it was a bot there would be a lot of errors lets say you miss type a letter or something the bot would fail while a human can correct. History is something that should be taught by thing its about Humans.

Alright now, my first question will be Historians and the philosophy of Historians, Historian go out travel the world robot will pause "error" historians go out like archaeologists dig find travel or maybe work in museums. Yet I can't see a human like machine do this task, and how will it even be able to do this task not just the information but the work the Job like going out to the field digging mapping, "archaeological discoveries" this is how historians are paid for doing field work not just inquiring content knowledge. So historians especially archaeologists will remain safe for work. If Robotics and A.I can inquire the content knowledge that's "absolutely fine" BUT! are they able to go out in the field and execute field work? NO they can't.
So it's not only the content knowledge of a subject matter but the ability to understand and attempt field work, including standing up research based work, discovering, and even other stuff that all includes these types abilities.

History will be too complicated for robots, as for me. Because this science include psychology, sociology, politics that can't be understanding for machines. Besides, history is not math.

This job is highly subjective

Though history, like any academic subject, can hypothetically be taught by software, unlike math it requires a human element. You can teach students the information, but you can't make them care or help them draw connections. You can't guide them down a pathway of critical thinking, at least not consistently, with learning software. Not only that, but also it is highly unlikely, unless true artificial intelligence is possible, that robots can synthesize new information and form different opinions on the subject matter. They can't account for bias without a level of input unless they're truly independently intelligent and capable of truly learning.

Historical texts and sources, as well as events, require human minds to interpret - an AI would be unable to analyze the nuances of human history

Soon, the way to learn history would have to be from a computer.
