EN LA ERA DEL INTERNET
–¿Hola, Pizza Hut? –No, señor. Pizzería Google. –Ah, discúlpeme… marqué mal… –No señor, marcó bien. Google compró la cadena Pizza Hut. –Ah, bueno… entonces anote mi pedido, por favor… –¿Lo mismo de siempre? –¿Y usted cómo sabe lo que pido yo? –Según su calle y su número de cédula, las últimas 12 veces usted ordenó una napolitana grande con jamón. –Sí, esa quiero… –¿Me permite sugerirle una pizza sin sal, con ricota, rúcula y tomate seco? –¡No! Detesto las verduras. –Su colesterol no es bueno, señor. –¿Y usted cómo sabe? –Cruzamos datos con su seguro de salud y tenemos los resultados de sus últimos 7 análisis de sangre. Acá me sale que sus triglicéridos tienen un valor de 180 mg/DL y su LDL es de… –¡Basta, basta! ¡Quiero la napolitana! ¡Yo tomo mi medicamento! –Perdón, señor, pero según nuestra base de datos no la toma regularmente. La última caja de Lipitor de 30 comprimidos que usted compró en Farmadescuento fue el pasado 2 de febrero a las 3.26 pm. –¡Pero compré más en otra farmacia! –Los datos de sus consumos con tarjeta de crédito no lo demuestran. –¡Pagué en efectivo! –Los datos de sus retiros con la tarjeta del Popular no lo demuestran. –¡Tengo otra fuente de efectivo! –Su última declaración de ingresos no lo demuestra. No queremos que tenga problemas con la DGII señor… –¡ Vete al diablo, coño !!! –Perdón, señor, sólo queremos ayudarlo. –¿Ayudarme? ¡Estoy harto de Google, Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, Instagram ! Me voy a ir a una isla sin internet, cable ni telefonía celular. –Comprendo, señor, pero aquí me sale que su pasaporte expiró hace 5 meses!

genuinely, from the bottom of my heart:
if you can’t read or write 500-1000 words with relative ease you have a serious problem
how are all the teenagers who complain about writing 500 words for homework going to get through college without AI
how are you going to function in society if you can’t read 1000 words at a time
This is a FIXABLE problem, by the way!
Pick a topic you like, and that's what you're going to read about. Set a minimum word count, and read until you get to it. Start small. Smart easy. First try, it might actually be agonizing.
That's it for the day. Just hit the word count.
Next day, read to the word count again. Read something new! It will be easier today.
And easier the next.
And you will naturally find yourself extending how much you read per day.
yes! the brain must be exercised like any other part of the body to get stronger! no matter what place you’re at you can do stimulating activities to exercise your brain!
The answer to 'how are they going to function' is, and I say this as someone whose mom was a social worker in Appalachia for 20 years: they're going to get scammed. They're going to be victims of fraud, scams, and exploitation, due to their low literacy making them easier targets for others. And then they're going to be unable to read and write well enough to advocate for themselves in a court of law or fight back in any meaningful way.
"I ain't reading that" becomes "I can't read that" which becomes "I didn't read before I signed it because the guy telling me to was convincing and now I don't have anything".
^^ There is so much profit in exploiting illiteracy and ignorance.
On top of being scammed, receiving accurate medical treatment relies on you knowing how to do your own research, and too many doctors take illiterate patients less seriously.
If you become a victim of a crime or are accused of a crime, you need to be able to read the papers a cop or lawyer puts in front of you. They can happily take advantage of your ignorance if you give them a chance.
This list goes on! Landlords, real estate agents, accountants, car mechanics, bankers, phone companies, customer service, contractors, childcare workers, e.g. any other human you rely on just to live your life will expect you to be literate and capable of making smart decisions. It is not their job to supplement your ignorance. It is not any well-meaning individual's job to make sure you paid attention in the same classes they did. And most of them know this and will not wait for you to figure things out.
It won't be a scam, it will just be business.

Pluto's Hillary Mountains
It took 9 years and 3 billion miles for NASA's New Horizons spacecraft to finally capture this view.
