Visionary Twilight Zone episode.

Channel surfing tonight and I stopped on this episode of the Twilight Zone: ["The Twilight Zone" The Brain Center at Whipple's (TV Episode 1964) - IMDb](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0734633/) Where the owner of a factory replaces human employees with computers. He himself is replaced by a robot. It really is something that we have been seeing a lot, automation replacing human in factories, AI replacing humans in some decision making processes. On a side note, most of the original Twilight Zone shows really stand up time.
I'd rather be phishing!

Given the not advanced breed of monkeys I have to write software for I think the worst PIC is better than them. The machine shows an alarm with a text detailing how to fix the problem and the mandatory training taught the only way to reset the condition? Abruptly shut down the power! It happens again (because the condition is still valid)? Abruptly shut down the power! Rinse and repeat until the poor PC inside the machine gives up then call our company threatening law action because "ze safwar dasz no wooking".

I don't remember the particular episode but yes, it was a wonderful series. As to automation, I find it odd that we see this as a new thing. When I started work in a big utilities office, we had a typing pool, a room full of comptometer operators (remember those?), a whole stack of people making punch cards and numerous other people doing jobs that simply don't exist nowadays. Ned Ludd and his mates were predicting the end of employment due to automation way back in the 18th century but we've seen time and time again that when one activity becomes obsolete a new one is created.
