My 1971 truck has outlasted 75% of the computers ever made..(1971 is the starting year of Intel) there is something to be said of keep it simple stupid...the only thing I have altered on my 71’ International is changing out the points to an electronic ignition gizmo for about a 100 bucks...come to think of it thats the same money I paid for this whole compter set-up i use....newer is not always better....and you will never see a machine doing re-roofs/plumbing installs...siding/changing over electrical panels....if all you can do is push paper then you should worry...me not so much...I have never seen a machine twisting wrenches for car repair?...The machine Davinci they use for operations is hacking people up and is drowning in law suiots for slicing intestines and people bleeding out ...(doctors remotely operate with this thing)

“....and you will never see a machine doing re-roofs/plumbing installs...siding/changing over electrical panels...”


Disagree. It will happen within a decade or two at the most. Structures will be built more quickly with a work force that stays on the job 24/7 and isn’t constrained by OSHA rules.

But before that you will see expendable robots take over the really dangerous stuff like underground mining and firefighting rescue.

What does your truck have to do with any of this?
