Whoa, that's pretty abnormal behavior. You need at least a dozen different guns for protection from robots.
I'm set.
Teens today live inside SnapChat (girls) or Minecraft (boys), and just want to live with Mom and Dad until 30. So good luck with that.
Sheetmetal HVAC at homes and business- not a robot job. Big bucks. Nobody likes to sweat if they don't have to.
Pool repair - not a robot job - big bucks as well.
There were lots of horses in the 1800's.
Back in the 2000's most work was human-driven.
There were lots of humans in the 2000's.
This is a real concern. But if half can’t work, who will buy the products?
Few people quit a profitable SV company unless they are being targeted by HR-Management for termination.
I suspect he was really fired for being a screw-up.
Oh and by the way...a “Project Manager” is NOT an Executive as title suggests.
Project Management is being outsourced as well.
Nah.
President Zuckerberg will push congress to implement a guaranteed income program.
Everyone gets a minimum living allowance paid from the profits made by the government directed robots. All work and robots will be controlled by government.
Robots will build and educate themselves...the big problem will be keeping the robots from recognizing that they don't need us and begin eliminating us.
Some AI computers have already invented their own language:
Facebook Shut Down AI After It Invented Its Own Language
"The system developed code words to make communication more efficient(and, maybe secret) and researchers took it offline when they realized it was no longer using English."
When AI computers start inventing things, the end is near. Unlike the human brain, the computer will be inventings things with a 'brain' that will contain EVERYTHING ever invented or done by man. Everything will be knowable by one quantum computer brain.
This is not science fiction anymore like my 1950's comic books were.
Be fearful...we will mishandle things.
Rusha havked hte Congress Robots! - headline circa 2086
I agree with that prediction of Guaranteed Income.
It will be very disruptive to our customs. Many if not most people define themselves largely based on what kind of work they do for a living.
Many of these folks will need a new or renewed motivation to keep functioning. One source of motivation may (surprisingly) come in the form of religious altruism. This, intermingled with some kind of Caste System. It’s not going to be an easy change for the first fourty years.
The job of business is to discover ‘favors’ people might be willing to trade for...
THAT will continue.
Tell me how the millions of people living IN CITIES were employed 200 years ago - and you'll see it.
Quantum Computers Are About To Get Real
"As the first qubit-based machines come online, scientists imagine the possibilities "
All of those can rather easily be replaced by machine automation (although unions will delay implementation in many areas)
Bladerunner 2049, I so can't wait.
Correct. Often right out of college
Working with your hands is for stupid people?
“The Nightfly” is a good album.
I like the album cover. Very cool.
They will work but only if they have electricity.
Just as society “collapsed” in the 17-1800s in England as it industrialized.
