The industrial revolution was supposed to lead to mass unemployment.

The big problem is, what jobs will be available for all the stupid and unmotivated people?

Many of these jobs will be gone anyway as the democRATS raise the minimum wage again and again. Kiosks and tablets, instead of persons, are already in many fast food places. There are machines that can make 300 hamburgers an hour. Many entry level workers have already encountered the true, real minimum wage: $0.00 per hour. States not run by democRATS may be able to resist the minimum wage insanity.

America is still the land of opportunity, as demonstrated by the ongoing invasion. Almost everyone wants to come here. If American entrepreneurs are allowed to create and innovate, we will overcome the democRATS and their damages.

If America eventually declines, those same entrepreneurs and innovators will follow SpaceX and the new frontier will expand ever outward. People from York and Jersey founded New York and New Jersey. Our descendants will found New America.

Let the brainwashing in favor of AI begin. Pretty soon it will even create itself.

They said the same things about automation 100 years ago...automation has created far more jobs than it cost. Same will likely be true of AI.

AI is already a side-hustle for me so as far as I’m concerned... Yep! It created one more job than it took. lol

Yes, there will always be work for smart and ambitious people. But with each passing day, there are fewer of both.

I think without a minimum wage law and fewer regulations there will be plenty of jobs for dummies.

AI will select companies in which to invest. Companies not chosen, will lose investors and thus lose employees.

Good luck ever getting that.

I remember a documentary where they showed many humans in battle with A.I. That kept everyone busy.

I have been studying AI in my industry. (Manufacturing and machining.) I am super excited about it. Yeah sure SkyNet can kill us all but until then embrace the tech and use it for your own benefit. One of my products is production automation. I have used the various AI ‘chat’ programs and they can churn out an automation program in Python, C++ and PLC in minutes doing what use to take me weeks. It is amazing explaining to a chat robot troubleshooting problems and having it completely rewrite a new code I can copy and paste in to an Allen Bradley controller fixing the bugs. And with all the open source Linux based AI tech I can create my own AI tailored system in days.

Same as now. Welfare

Automation as described herein did not come about a century ago.

What drove industrialization was the proliferation of inventions, which does expand the worker base for the purpose of its mass production.
