Objections to previous home-works:
1. How am i going to measure wealth of information and knowledge?
Yes, maybe, that statement was a bit daring and must be naive. But still as for me knowledge is produced by humans and computer is not able to conclude properly so that humans will be able to use that information without interpretation. And in percentage earlier people had Odyssey and knew it by heart so i can embellish that they could proceed bigger percentage of available information. Now we have computers stored with GBs of information but how often we have smth on our computer we would never open? So the percent of amount of available information we can proceed is great lower. So we can move into deeper learning of subjects but standalone person is less likely to understand cause-and-effect relations between different fields and to look to situation distantly. Also we will face the problem of dirty information or replicated data....very wide topic.
Now I am sorry that have chosen on-line expression of my thoughts instead of off-line conversation. But still this statement stays naive.
2. About productivity paradox.
Yes you are right, there are some articles discrediting this paradox. Probably western society has already overcame this paradox, but as said one may teacher of informatics - "computer in hands of beginner = crow in hands of aboriginal". I would stay for that this paradox is true till the new digital generation doesn't take action and i believe that in some cases when people who have no idea how computer can help them in work can cause this paradox....at least I can make examples))))
