Since professional baseball is not a sport, but rather a business designed for maximum profit, then sure, just have computers calculate balls and strikes. I propose those same computers could calculate accurate odds on winners and losers to the point where the games don’t even have to be played at all. Just input all data into the cloud and let it predict World Series winners for the next decade. We’d go to the stadium to see the players run onto the field, then run right back off into the dugout, without ever playing the inning. The computers would predict how the inning would turn out.
The same could be done for spell checking. That’s evolved to auto-word fill. Soon we’ll have auto-sentence fill, then auto-paragraph fill. Before you know it, your final college paper on the fall of the Roman Empire will be completely finished in the cloud.
Yes, let computers do everything. They can eat for me too. They’ll even take vacations for me. No need for me to actually go skiing in Denver… the computers will give me all I need to know for a satisfying experience.
