What the fuck is the working class supposed to do after these things steal every single job they would normally have had? In 20-30 years we're going to have an enormous chunk of the population not being able support themselves financially.
nah just gotta force the issue. Focus on superior vocational training and job quality. ie turn the generic assembly line worker into an advanced systems mechanic

Get an education and do like the upper middle class twats, go to University and get a degree in social justice or gender studies. Ain't that better ?
Robots and especially software narrow AIs are going to displace a ton of people. Right now, most won't have better options than to retrain for a crappier job, go on the dole or retire early if they can.
Our ratios of employed to inactive people are already bad, soon they'll be terrible. That's why many tech people argue for the Universal Basic Income, or Communism 2.0.

Can we just admit that nearly all jobs could be automated, but simply aren't in order to keep the facade of slave labor going?
Brayden Evans
They are only good at repetitive tasks where the stock locations is known precisely within a few thousandth of an inch, and they still need humans to correct the robots when they move out of position due to a hundred different factors from thermal expansion of metal to a heavy truck driving outside causing a small vibration in the building. The machines have a long way to go

Bastiat was way ahead of you by more than 150 years
To add on to this, manual labor will only go as cheap as the price of hand crafted goods. A guitar will never be automated, the tuning is to precise and requires human input, a robot will never install custom crown molding in your living room, or install a new wood floor in your house. We'll just return to an 1800s society with lots of craftsmen and the robots will do the slave labor just like the robots of their times did the repetitive tasks like picking cotton and sending it through the gin
Adrian Jackson
>I'll always have a job being a robot overlord We'll always have a job until they produce a multipurpose humanoid robot that is fast, strong, efficient, and doesn't constantly fall down the fucking stairs or fail at turning doorknobs.

>A guitar will never be automated, the tuning is to precise You are aware that none of the world's most precise manufacturing is done by human hands? Robots have infinitely more precision than any human, the problem is that it's quite difficult to beat a human's ability to be fast and relatively precise in such a wide variety of actions.
There is no inherent reason why robots can never be as good, or better, than humans at everything. Robotics is at the stage of the Wright Flyer, don't make the mistake of thinking this is as good as it will ever get.

If you're a boilermaker you should know that Robots aren't a real issue. The work is too varied, space too confined and work too complex for an automated system to ever take over skilled work.
Eli Cruz
in the future they will be able to.
besides, you can't employ everyone in maintaining the robots.
Dylan Robinson
Pretty much this, possibly earlier. When there are mobs of unemployed, your options are to exterminate them, feed them, or get into a firefight every time you step out your front door to go to what few jobs still exist. Because they won't just sit down and quietly starve to death.
Upside is that automation is a positive feedback loop, so the time of necessary socialism will be relatively short, until we reach glorious post scarcity.
If you're a shop monkey welding the same thing every day, or a pipeliner, sure. But there's no robot in existence yet that can crawl around a boiler and replace tubes, or any other kind of welding in widely varied field conditions.
Brayden Bennett
hey fuck you
Ryan Gonzalez
Robot isn't functioning to set conditions, let's out an alarm/signal, repair robot comes over, diagnoses the robot from a repair-code/direct connection into some diagnostic module, fixes the problem, leaves.
If a human can do it, a robot can too. IF you want to be edgy and say, what about dreaming? I bet they can do that way into the future.
Jaxson Morris
>What the fuck is the working class supposed to do after these things steal every single job they would normally have had? die
Luis Adams
I disagree. It's probably one of the most difficult types of job to automate because the task and environment varies so greatly, but I don't see any reason why a sufficiently advanced robot couldn't do so. We'd basically be in android territory at that point, but I don't think it's implausible.

What you guys need to understand is that the new generation of robots is nothing like what you are used to. You are familiar with conventional robots who cannot operate in a dynamic environment. The new ones will be able to handle novel situations based on their training. Deep learning is going to crash the labor market with no survivors.
Christopher Garcia
Artificial intelligence will be the end of the human era. It'll come eventually and I'm not fucking around.
Connor Bell
FUCKING GET A JOB REPAIRING THEM AND PROGRAMMING THEM, IT IS NOT THAT HARD.
Grayson Clark
They are done by a robot, that is controlled by a human. Machines are far more precise but they don't have the ability to correct themselves, yes it can be done with 100s of electric sensors running tons of software but even sensors glitch and without a human there to see it immediately the robots could make 1000s of bad parts before being caught and cost a company 100,000s in material scrap.
At work I simultaneously run a 3 axis cnc mill, two cnc lathes, a cnc hobb, and a manual broaching machine. I use on average $200/hour of material and produce around $500/hour in goods. I use like $10/hour worth of electricity just to run my machines. The garbage chips of metal my machine spits out each hour are worth almost as much as I make at $0.10/lb for recycled steel. All together these machines are worth around 1 million, a single human error or sensor malfunction can't causes $10,000 worth of damage and reduce total shop production by 30% for 2 weeks.
The $21/hour that I get paid is absolutely nothing compared to the other costs to run the factory, having a human that can react and adapt is well worth it
Soon, very soon they will be able to do all those things far better than humans, in far more confined spaces and in inert gas environments too.
The biggest problem holding back more robot adoption is the cost and difficult in programming, and both of those will get fixed quite soon.
Blake Rivera

You will live to see mass revolt for land reform, the people demand the land that is their birth right.
And I can trigger each sensor and ensure it is operating properly.
Jordan Ross
The point isn't whether they're better in every situation. It's that robots reduce the need for labor overall. A factory of 1000 workers could have robots and 50 people maintaining them. If it wasn't so, there wouldn't be an incentive to adopt the robots to replace human labor.
So while there will still be human labor, the point is there will be much less workers needed.
Isaac Myers
The people are denied their land, their means for survival is not dependant on the feudal lord, land must be distributted equally generally.

>but even sensors glitch and without a human there to see it immediately Humans don't glitch? They don't get complacent, tired, and distracted?
There is no task a human can do that a sufficiently advanced machine cannot do better.
>having a human that can react and adapt This is the reason automation is not widespread yet; humans are currently far more effective in performance and cost when it comes to nuanced and varied tasks that require complex decision-making or dexterity. This will not be the case for long, however.

And each sensors costs anywhere between 50 and 500 dollars, and they all need to be regularly maintenanced and replaced every 8000 hours. Oh and that one sensor in the back takes 200 hours of skilled mechanical labor at $70/hour to fix, and if you want it done in less than 2 weeks it'll cost an extra $20,000. At some point it just makes more sense financially speaking to use a human. If you saw the money these factories make, your pay is nothing. It's literally on tier with shipping costs and cleaning supplies. I work in a place with only about 80 employees and the "plant manager", sits in an office all day and leads tour groups once a week makes $600,000/year and the CEO who doesn't even come into work except maybe 10 hours a week to walk around, I assume the rest of the day he's on his phone from home makes 4 million/year

I think you misunderstand the concept of "strong AI".
By 2029, it will not cost that much to have the computational power of of the human brain through brute force statistics.
It does not mean we will have strong AI magically in the year 2029, it just means the hardware will be there.
Sometime after that point it is possible that they figure out strong intelligence in a simulation.
Whether this be brain simulation like the billion dollar Blue Brain project is doing or an abstraction of intelligence like many of the Google projects are doing is yet to be seen.
That said... It is quite possible that anything a human can do, a machine will be able to do in 25 years. Repairs. Creativity. And by 2045, the computations power will be like 1000 brains in the capacity of a cell phone.
What will you do then?
Colton Foster
Reminder that Watson can diagnose cancer better than a panel of doctors. AARON and the Painting Fool can create art that is indistinguishable from a human's unless you were told. Same with Melomics and orchestral music. AI is already replacing investment managers at financial firms.

If they get to that point and build robots good enough to be useful to the AI then either we will enter a welfare state or there will be population reduction programs introduced. Probably a bit of both. Also probably a cultural boom as people produce art instead of products.
Ian Barnes
Yes, but there's a strong trend toward integration of six-axis robotics into the materials handling industry. I work as a controls engineer for a large logistics automation company, and we routinely automate large portions of warehouse jobs. I can imagine manufacturing is similar.
David Diaz
Are you Cred Forums ready to embrace degeneration?
Josiah Johnson
I know right. We wanted to add a camera to our robot to cut down cycle times a few seconds got the quote back $13k. $1500 for a camera i can get off ebay used for $60. About $2000 in cables $4000 for a multiplexer board, and $3000 for a box to put the multiplexer in (that was the best part). Oh and when a computer is plugged in I can use a usb camera for vision training on it, but that feature is not supported in production.
I been having serious wet dreams of starting up a robot manufacturing business that will cut costs by over 9000%. You could seriously built the shit with glass filled nylon injection molded parts for like 1/10th the cost.
Angel Cruz

What if the repair robot breaks down? Is there going to be a chain of robots that constantly fix each other?
It would be cool if it was it's own little colony like ants or bees that constantly make shit.
Cooper Powell
Manufacture of robots (and investment goods in general) is a tiny fraction of economy so it's irrelevant anyway. Look at revenue of companies like Kuka or DMG Mori. They're SME tier. And many world-class names in industrial machinery are in fact family businesses run from a shed in some Swiss ravine. If you can make ten robots, you can make a billion without hiring more workers.
David Campbell
Maybe i had bad experience with robots but my time working with them they were down about 75% of the time, and fixes that 'should' have only required one person ended up requiring 10 because the robot broke in 'just' such a particular manner that it manages to fuck the entire line assembly up.
I was technically unskilled labor at the time btw, so the idea that there won't be a place for humans is a bit lopsided, although i can obviously see the concern, the robots are going to replace a large portion of the workforce once they actually start working properly.
There's still lots of jobs for unskilled labor in the construction industry (among others that i am too tired to think of right now) that i feel robots likely won't be able to replace for a long time, that isn't to say they won't replace those jobs too eventually though, but good luck trying to use robots to build your house in the near future for example, its not going to happen for a while.
Brandon Baker
It would just happen naturally over the years as less and less jobs were available. The government can't completely stop gibs because it would cause riots.
I wouldn't be surprised if civilisation just collapses shortly after. One or two generations with the majority of people being pure consumers contributing nothing to society will create some really fucked mindsets.
Jackson Lewis
What part of strong AI do you not understand. There will be thousands if not millions of robots all with the intelligence of a human person. If a robot breaks down and the current repair robot breaks down, there will be plenty of other robots to repair them with.

Hudson Lopez
Ever heard of reliability management systems? They're improving rapidly. What took a whole in-house department can now be entrusted to an outsourcer who does predictive maintenance and comes by when that pump starts vibrating suspiciously. Maintenance crews are being downsized as we speak because you don't need many people if you stop having catastrophic breakdowns that require all hands to fix asap.

>Any repair robot is a long way away let alone a universal one >a milling machine that changes its own tools is a long way away Just make robots modular enough to hot-switch faulty parts and all it takes is a forklift.
Easton Allen
Where I work we produce one type of product. There's like 10-15 different series of them. There's numerous options and variations you can request for each series.
How the hell is a robot going to replace humans any time soon? Just the differences in welding techniques that would have to be programmed would take long enough, not to mention fabrication of various parts and the ability to operate gantry cranes moving metric tonnes of material. Then you have out of position, awkward, welding to do in cramped spaces. And then of course the painting and assembly, disassembly loading and shipping.
One of the biggest issues would be to how fine a tolerance is acceptable at my work. Even with CNC it takes a trained machinist to constantly monitor and change things. SO many little things can throw out the cnc machines. Even things as simple as the changing temperature.
Simple welding is about all that robots can handle now and in the future. Even if AI becomes a serious thing sometime in the near future, it'll still be limited to large companies who produce the same product with little variation. And forget repair and maintenance jobs. It will be decades before robots are capable of visually identifying things that need to be repaired or general upkeep maintenance. That's if they can realistically decrease the size of the welding bots they have now to allow them to get into tight spaces.
ANyway, even if it does happen. They will be need for experience trades people anyway. Teach a tech guy to understand all the nuances of welding would be much more difficult than teaching a welder to program. The ability to identify problems simply from the sound of the weld and things like that come with experience only. SO they'll need us for helping to program the bots as well as supervise them.
Alexander Butler
Nah this is bullshit. The place I work at went from having 12 mechanics and doing mantinence on each press in rotations as well as repairs to one mechanic and out sourcing repairs. It's way worse. Just a way of trying to cut costs for short term gain.
Jackson Morales
>Most production robots are made to reduce production times, not reduce employment costs. That's equivalent. More product per unit time = more product per unit labor. Because labor is measured in units of time.
Xavier Davis
Nigger it's not a puzzle where you just take a piece off and replace it. I don't think you could find a robot that could reach half the parts on my machine.
Adrian Gutierrez
that's not repair. and if you build your machine modular you can guarantee a high uptime for obvious reasons and that's great. but someone has to fix the modules. and no bot can do that.
Hudson Davis
No fuck you. I just got a job programming industrial robots and I sure worked harder to get where I am than the blue colour drop puts that might loose their job.
Nathaniel Mitchell
I think the issue that we have short term is that low skilled jobs are going away.
And not everyone can be a robotic engineer due to costs of going to college.
And even if they did it would flood the market of robot engineers and then the wages of robot engineers would drop.
Christian Davis

Joshua Perez
no because by then we'll have an annual purge, one day, a full 24 hours to commit whatever crimes including murder. that should keep our employment numbers in check
Jason Nelson
Nah, most production jobs are safe for now.
Robotic manufacturing is only viable with HUGE production runs. Those systems aren't cheap, and they have to be re-tooled and pretty much re-designed for each product.
If you aren't planning to make tens of millions of dollars off the product, you won't financially cover the cost of redesign and re-tooling.
Instead it's far more cost effective to have humans do the work, as they can rapidly adapt to production runs of only a dozen or so before moving onto building something else.

Jaxon Morgan
It won't be a rapid process. As one sector's jobs start to diminish they'll find a new area to work in.
Care of live stock, fencing (new and maintanence), water runs (to check on pumps) are all things that can't be automated. So a lot of love stock farming will boom, as is needed as the population continues to grow.
AI will require huge growth in processing speed. That's not something that can increase for ever.
Ian Lopez
Just go into small scale manufacturing and build things robots can't yet build. Go where the robot can't and do not buy robot made stuff or do business with people who use them

Lo-town Lucy: Well, then they will. The whole object of an enclave is to be self-sufficient. Soon they'll crash an airplane into the Inclinator and blame it on a drunk smuggler.
Elijah King
That's probably because the system is used in a cargo-cult way (i.e. the sensors and algorithms in place do not in fact enable predictive maintenance but only create the impression). It doesn't have to be the case though; there's no reason why reliability cannot be successfully managed in most industries in the very near future.
Anyway, it's obvious that if you fire 1000 assembly line workers and replace them with 100 robots you're not going to need 1000 technicians to maintain them, you'll need like 10. You could install 10000 robots to employ all the workers but there's no demand for 10x the product.
So there's basic income or artificial job creation a.k.a. the treadmill, guess what will be implemented

>Robotic manufacturing is only viable with HUGE production runs It's a mantra from 1970s. Japanese car companies had a profitable run size of 1 car ten years ago. Also pretty much everything a modern person uses has been mass-produced for a hundred years anyway so it's a moot point.
Aaron Miller
I'm 19. I recently dropped out pursuing of a computer science BS degree. It's been unbelievably easy for me to land well-paying job after well-paying job. I currently pull $60k contracting online as a technical artist.
If you're so fucking stupid that it's hard for you to survive in today's world it might be best for you to stop trying.
Blake Carter
I hope it happens soon
Benjamin Taylor
if you look at it from another angle, assembly by hand was only a bandaid in the production process. Engineers plan what the car looks like, materials are sourced and the car should be assembled exactly the same over and over again. Living creatures were placed inside of the technical production process due to a lack of development of the facility.
Bentley Hernandez
it's literally the reason why your country shouldn't be importing millions of migrants
you want there to be as less people as possible when there's suddenly no more jobs
Charles Morales
The point is to get more output not the same output. The machines are not cheaper than workers. Probably what would happen. I think (((they))) would probably try cull the population but it's a risky thing to do because in a fight the masses will always win. You won't be getting anything when 100 other people equally qualified are all desperate for your job retard.

As a welder automated welding processes will never completely replace us. automated processes are super help full and free up labor to do more tasks and expand business.
Alexander Hernandez
The welding robots are programmed with by welding geniuses and they also sense more than you, they can measure resistance variations thousands of times a second and visually monitor the welding process 60 times per second. The modern robot welders are so easy to program you don't need an experienced welder at all.
Colton Martin
I mean real killing. I imagine yeah there would be a WW3 or plague. Maybe China tier birth programs instead.
Carson Taylor
>The machines are not cheaper than workers. It really depends on the industry. Anyway, the point is we (the market if you will) either don't need more output (we're in a protracted overproduction crisis right now even) or can't get enough inputs to make more.

Evan Morales
>trades are only for lazy people no, but using computer programs is not necessarily the skill or interest the manual laborers have. Furthermore, assembly line workers might not be willing to organize and manage time themselves.
probably many of them would. the idea is that there are still enough greedy wagecucks that would rather up their basic income with a wage than stay away from work. Believers of this system insist that people like going to work - even though they shun work like a cat shuns water.

Angel Young
Here's something I don't get: when the minimum wage is raised, you say that cost will be bore by consumers, counteracting the minimum wage. However, the increase from 7 dollars an hour to 15 dollars an hour is more than a doubling of your salary, meaning costs would have to double as well. I don't see how this is the case. There can't be so many minimum wage jobs to affect the price level in such a drastic way.

Universal income. Until the robot armies kill us all and the kikes live on with robot servants we built for them like good little goyium. We need a revolution and fast. Then we can live as immortal neets with ai gfs all around. There is no way they will let us live if they no longer need us. The solutution is to convert them or kill them. And by convert I mean submit to us and admit that we are just as good if not better than them. Also they have too become Christian. If they step out of line it's straight to the gas chambers. We can't let them kill us.
Jordan Ross
You don't produce anything either. I said earlier there will probably be a cultural boom but that doesn't necessarily translate into decent wages or a functional economy.
Angel Russell
Owning an automobile in the 1880s wasn't cost effective either.
Adrian King
And actually, that's part of the shit people like you just can't fucking understand for some reason. Not every job position is a perfectly interchangeable slot that can be filled by anyone who can put in the bare minimum effort. Some people excel at their jobs, and work in fields where that excellence makes them indispensible. Not all of us are fucking easily replaced retards working on factory lines or welding boilers.
Once again, I'd argue that if you've invested all your time into being able to perform an easily replaceable role, and you have no drive to get a job where you're actually valued, you DESERVE to be replaced.

business with excess cash will expand. either there will be new types of jobs created or a bubble will be created and when it pops it will bring down the robotic industry. Just look at the advancement of agriculture. modern machines replace a large percent of farming labor. I dont see people crying that there are no farming jobs.
Henry Martinez
Maybe. But consider that they could. How many aspiring artists get turned down everyday? How many people regret taking an arts degree already? At least one of them has some degree of talent and is willing to do the job for a LOT cheaper, especially considering the fact that alternatives will be few and far between.
Josiah Wilson
That's why I gave up on even thinking about most trades, and quit the food service industry. Now I'm learning programming and working at a semi-comfy warehouse. Automation is going to hit the work force a hell of a lot harder than most people estimate, just like global trade. Sure a commercial robot costs six or seven figures, but do you really think that will be the case in ten or twenty years?
Dominic White
>this
Carson Hughes
>business with excess cash will expand. Businesses with extra cash give that cash to the owners who milk the everlasting shit out of it.
Grayson Gomez
>do you really think that will be the case in ten or twenty years? I do. But they will find ways to work around that, finishing jobs without expensive robots, or use them more effectively (like assigning several tasks to them, not that difficult when you have feeding lines).
Eli Jackson
>he thinks it will be the same because it was in the past. Top Kek. Consider the horse. The horse has been used as transportation for millieniem. Yet only in a couple decades they were replaced with cars. Now only a select few horses see any use besides the occasional race, horseshow or novelty rides. Also sometimes Amish use cart and buggy. But the point remains you don't see a horse on the streets a lot anymore.

For now they need help. And even then that still knocks out, what 70% of the workforce in that job? You could have a dozen machines all maintained by one guy.

Anthony Lee
Absolutely not. There is a huge supply of workers and little to no demand. You do the math.
Jaxson Campbell
No you can not have a dozen of them maintained by the same guy. Here's a question,have you ever been to a factory? Have you ever seen how heavy machinery operates? It isn't a magical live where obedient robots create shit out of nothing. Each and single one needs to be under constant supervision.

This meme is as old as the industrial world. Automation does not replace jobs. Automation provides services when there is no human alternative.
>But I can make cars! I can work an oil rig! And those evil companies fired me and purchased robots instead!
That's the rub. When the government creates regulations that outlaw labour (ex. unions, licensing organization and the minimum wage) corporations only have two choices left: automate or leave the country.

Special snowflake jobs are few, and most of them are entirely dispensable. Dispensable as in the world won't stop spinning if the job isn't done at all. Or done by an underqualified worker.
I'm not entirely sure what a "technical artist" does but let's consider the economics of someone who makes models for video games, it's an industry everyone can relate to.
First of all, the product is reusable. You do it, it doesn't need to be done again. Second, the market for entertainment is capped — the world population only has a limited amount of time to devote to consumption of entertainment. If I buy game A, I'm going to skip game B because I physically can't play both. I'm also going to skip movie C and amusement park D for the same reason, I'm already playing game A. It follows that only so many modelers per capita can be sustained, and I'm afraid we'll reach the point of saturation in 5 years or so. Meanwhile, tools getting better will increase productivity while lowering the entry barriers at the same time. A friend of mine started getting paid commissions 2 months after seeing 3d modeling software for the first time. It's incredibly easy to learn by now. Same with music composing for example — it's become so easy, there's no market for it by now apart from DJing at weddings and funerals. Movies have hit a plateau about 10 years ago and revenue in developed countries is in a steady decline.
Entertainment industry is not the silver bullet.

In 20 years time if your job is not to make decisions and be responsible for those decisions, a robot will be doing it. All of those truck drivers, factory workers, retail/food service workers, janitors etc can't just go back to school to become doctors, lawyers, and engineers. Lots of them literally can't do the work and our economy won't support that big of an increase in professionals.

So it's about heavy machinery in particular now? Something town-sized like a blast furnace or a rolling mill?
Have you considered that industrial jobs including workers and engineers are like 10% of the workforce in total? They've been ALREADY replaced by machines to a huge extent tbqh
The change we're going to see next is machines coming for services. Driving/piloting jobs will be the first to go, and it's a huge segment.
With delivery now cheaper than ever, retail industry will fold completely and will be replaced by downsized showrooms plus robotic delivery. Fast food joints will be next, only fancy restaurants will survive, the ones you need to be physically present in to understand what you're paying for.
I think rioting will start at the drivers' obsolescence though so we won't get to learn what was next.

Robots would have their limitations, just like mechanical automation and computing.
And any new labor-saving technology doesn't just "steal jobs" from people - it also causes changes in abundance, making it possible to undertake ambitious projects that were unfeasible before.
Some areas will remain. I struggle to see how plumbers for example will be replaced when they are often independent and self employed; are they going to buy robots to replace themselves?
More fields will open up, monitoring robots, and generally maintaining them if the cost is less than having a machine do that, which it likely will be as food costs will drop as it become cheaper to produce.
Some working class fields will remain, like nursing assistants (human touch) and chefs (read; not cooks; they will easily be replaced- Creating a dish that looks and tastes good is beyond a robot right now. Best they can do is replicate it).
Generally things that require intuition and human touch will remain; teaching, nursing (doctors and surgeons will be replaced by bots and MSc and PHDs are cheaper for research than MD's), etc.
There will be a lot of tech and it support with larger and more phone centres, etc.
Ultimately though it will eventually come down to just having to educate yourself as much as possible to seperate yourself from a machine. Life I'll be cheap. Elysium is a good indication.

We are entering the technology era, unskilled or semi skilled workers/labor is no longer a valued commodity. The only people that will make a decent living will be the educated, but mainly those in relevant fields. The world has an immense surplus of non essential people, I'm not one to believe in conspiracy theory's but something along the lines of the "new world order" is something I completely believe in. Lots of people will die through some big misdirected event (pandemic, war, who the fuck knows?) and the rest of the population will practice eugenics to ensure the optimal survival of the human race.
Most humans are non essential, we have progressed to a standard of living that is attainable with less and less humans and only a few skilled/educated humans overseeing production. The chinks will do the menial manufacturing for 1/10 of what you make and they will be stoked on it.
>I'm incredibly stoned right now, hope my ramblings make some ounce of sense to you guys.
Samuel Morris
This is a good response. There will always be jobs that humans prefer other humans do, because machines cannot have empathy and many jobs require that. So nursing, child care, etc. And many jobs that involve contact between humans such as massage, physio, teaching dance. Then there's arts, music, painting etc.
The flip side of robots doing everything else is that those things become extremely cheap, so many other things will start to approach the level where they're not even sold, they're just free. I can imagine a future where Mcdonalds becomes so cheap because of robots that the meal is free but you just watch a bunch of advertising in their store during your meal.
This way people may not have as much money from not having necessarily full time work, but what money they do have will easily cover all their living expenses. People always argue the down sides of robots taking over but never the up side.
What we want is humans working maybe 1 day a week and earning enough money to pay for everything else in that 1 day of work.
The rich will also always pay the poor bennies because lets face it, it's better to pay some money and keep the unwashed masses happy than have them rise up and take over.
Grayson Ramirez
Automatization of current workplaces is going to create in the coming decades approx 700 new types of jobs that will be closely aligned to it.

How many programmers does it take to program a whole fleet of robots?

Connor Sanders
Well, mechanization has been happening since the dawn of humanity. Think about it. The shovel did what 5 men could do all at once. The car does what horses did but better, faster and with less shit.
The advent of robots is nothing new.
However, if i am to understand the essential worry of your question it is "Will economic efficiency ever exceed economic availability"
And the answer is simply no. People are too selfish for that to ever happen. Big businesses need money to survive and to get money they need to give wages. This applies in every circumstance. As business gets bigger, the more they need to give in wages or other means.
The more efficient the market, the better the life of people in the market. In the end, we may end up having most manufacturing, excavation and manual tasks mechanized.
but we will also likely master "job searches and match" technology to the degree that people can be assigned to jobs where they will be most likely to flourish at a highly personal level.
Since most shit jobs would be done and competition advanced to the highest levels.
The two largest industries employing people will be those related to tech and maintenance as well as those involved in creativity and leadership.
HR would have all the resources necessary to only select the best fitting workers. Small business will benefit massively due to the higher availability of cheaper goods and stores can pop up all over. Custom goods will be everywhere and hand made items will obtain a special "scarcity" value.
Work will be hard still but the market optimization promises incredible gains across the board.
Keep in mind, market efficiency (robots) can never outpace the actual market. So long as the market is capitalistic.
Cooper Howard
The only 1st world countries that will have problems with robots taking jobs, are the ones taking tons of immigrants.
Real 1st world countries have shrinking populations, so by the time robots are advanced enough to take every blue collar job in the market, there won't be that many people at all.
