AI时代， 就是俗称的搬砖。 体力劳动在发达国家很昂贵，但在发展中国家不值钱。 然而不管什么国家，体力劳动不能停，停下来就没钱可赚，所以赚得是血汗钱。 第二种，靠智力。 有人以为，在写字楼当白领，就是靠智力赚钱了。 你一个人就可以 成为一家公司 文 | 雾满拦江 （01） 世人赚钱门路，不过五种： 第一种，靠体力。 但写字楼白领，仍不过是搬砖。 在写字楼中赚钱的，另有其人。 第三种，靠资源。 资源的概念很广泛。 演员靠颜值揾食，二代吃爷娘老本，食利者靠资本，这都是资源。 第四种，靠平台。 比如打车的平台，送外卖的平台，这些平台具有垄断性，底层的利益是个长盛不衰的话题。 第五种，靠权力，降维攻击。 网上的段子，一个年轻人，考公进入城市规划局。他先把自己家"规划"到拆迁范围，赚到很大一笔钱。 猫有猫路，鼠有鼠路，依据每个人的特质，选择各自的赚钱模式。 你可能会说：资源咱没有，平台靠不上，权力是碾压我的……写字楼中，白领仍不过是搬砖，那么在写字楼中靠智力赚钱的人，是谁？ 答案是老板。 人世间，只有老板，才是真正靠智力赚钱。 AI时代，你也可以做老板。 （02） 以前做老板，很难很难。 你要请很多很多员工。 有人很贵 ...

Core Concept - The emergence of a "spiritual intelligence society" is seen as a necessary response to the AI era, emphasizing human unique values such as insight, deep connections with the world, and the impulse to create meaning [1][23]. Group 1: Cognitive Abilities - Knowledge serves as the foundational code of cognition, representing structured experiences and basic understanding of the world [2]. - Insight is described as a cross-disciplinary understanding built upon knowledge, experience, and thought, enabling complex problem-solving [3]. - Spiritual intelligence is characterized as a higher cognitive ability that involves sudden insights and the ability to see connections in seemingly unrelated areas [4]. Group 2: Mechanisms Behind Spiritual Intelligence - Neuroscience indicates that specific brain areas activate during moments of insight, suggesting that spiritual intelligence can be enhanced through training [6]. - Genetic factors may influence the expression of spiritual intelligence, indicating a potential innate sensitivity to certain cognitive processes [8]. - The environment plays a crucial role in the development of spiritual intelligence, with cultural and social contexts providing fertile ground for its growth [9]. Group 3: The Role of Knowledge, Insight, and Spiritual Intelligence - Knowledge must be systematically connected to support the emergence of spiritual intelligence, as seen in the examples of successful individuals [11]. - Insight requires time and diverse experiences to develop, highlighting the importance of cross-disciplinary exposure [12]. - Spiritual intelligence often arises in situations where knowledge and insight are insufficient, leading to breakthroughs in understanding [13]. Group 4: Future Implications in the AI Era - The nature of work is expected to shift from mere survival to self-expression, with AI taking over repetitive tasks [16]. - Education will evolve from rote learning to awakening individual potential, focusing on real-world problem-solving [17]. - Daily life will prioritize present experiences, fostering deeper interpersonal connections and mindfulness [18].

Core Viewpoint - The eSIM technology in China is on the verge of revival after nearly a decade of stagnation, with significant developments expected in 2023, driven by both policy changes and market demands [1][4][21]. Group 1: Historical Context and Development - eSIM technology was first introduced by GSMA in June 2016, and after two years of trials, it saw a surge in 2020 when major telecom operators in China began offering eSIM services for wearable and IoT devices [2][4]. - Despite having a comprehensive eSIM industry framework, the consumer adoption of eSIM in mainland China has been limited until recently [1][4]. Group 2: Recent Challenges - In 2023, the three major telecom operators in China suspended eSIM consumer services due to system upgrades, impacting the growth of eSIM users, which reached 3.62 million by the end of 2023, with 1.43 million new users that year [4][21]. - The suspension is attributed to security concerns, including vulnerabilities that allowed fraudulent registrations and misuse of eSIM technology [4][6]. Group 3: Operational Implications - eSIM technology reduces operational costs for telecom operators by eliminating the need for physical SIM card production and logistics, but it also weakens the contractual relationship between users and operators, leading to potential customer churn [5][6]. - The introduction of eSIM has made it easier for users to switch operators, which has raised concerns among telecom companies about losing customers [6][7]. Group 4: Future Prospects - The anticipated revival of eSIM services in 2025 aligns with the growing demand for connectivity in the AI era, as eSIM technology is essential for new hardware products like smart glasses [8][10]. - Major smartphone manufacturers, including Apple, are pushing for eSIM adoption, with upcoming models like the iPhone 17 Air expected to eliminate physical SIM slots entirely [12][14]. - The global trend towards eSIM adoption is expected to accelerate, with projections indicating that by 2025, approximately 1 billion eSIM-enabled smartphones will be connected worldwide, with China emerging as a key growth market [21][22].
