No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Learn to do other things. A crane can lift things better than a human. What did humans do? Learn to operate the crane. I am not sure how to make this easier for you to understand.
The problem is, we aren’t talking about one industry being lost, we aren’t even talking about two or three industry being lost. We are talking about so many industries it would be impossible to replace all of those jobs and get all those people gainfully employed.
This is at a level that you are not even understanding. This is at a level most people can’t even comprehend. I’m not even sure I realize just how many jobs would be lost. What are you going to do when there are way way way way way way way way more people than there are jobs? It doesn’t matter just going and doing something else there won’t be enough jobs for people. And I’m not talking where we’re at right now where we have more people and we have jobs and there’s some people out of work. We’re talking out of level where people won’t be able to find work.
These companies don’t care. And they’re not going to care. Because they will always be at least somebody to buy their product given they’ll just charge a hell of a lot more. But those few people who have jobs will pay it.
Just in the accounting Industry alone most jobs will be done by AI. A lot of programming jobs will be done by AI. Music creation jobs. A lot of them will be done by AI and I don’t mean the musicians I’m talking even the people behind the scenes. Their jobs will be done by AI. Trucker jobs can be done by AI if you have the vehicle on auto pilot. Building designs can be done by AI. Layout of factories where you put shelves and tools and machines can be done by AI. Hell, you could run a Burger King by AI and robotics.
This isn’t just go get another job. There won’t be other jobs. Well there’ll be jobs, but there will be so few of them. There’s no way you sustain an economy. Not a massive scale. That’s what you are not understanding.
Well, we shall see, won't we? If you're not gonna upgrade yourself and learn new skills, then maybe you deserve to be left behind.
An A.I taking a job doesn't automatically create a new one in some kind of 1:1 ratio. That's the entire point of A.I.
You're (incredibly naive) example of the crane is frankly stupid because a Crane still needs to be operated. Cranes didn't replace jobs any more than hammers did. Cranes were just a new tool to use in an existing job, Hence Crane Operators.
Now let's turn your stupid example into a good example. Let's say autonomous A.I. controlled cranes become a thing, and 100 crane operators lose their jobs. Now (in your brain) a new job has been created "monitoring" the A.I output (whatever you seem to think that means) but because of the efficiency of A.I. it only takes a team of three to monitor all 100 cranes.
What are the other 97 going to do...in your "simple example"?
Maybe put more than two seconds of thought into an analogy before opening your mouth.
Are those people stuck into doing crane work? It's not really my fault if you can't expand your horizons
