Yes cause technology never gets better than it's first iteration. There's literally no progress ever. One and done

How soon do you think it will be before technology reaches the point that we can build completely functional houses with just robots? Give me a timeframe.

Do you want tonights winning lotto numbers also? How about which team will win the super bowl this year?

Nobody can tell exact time frames. But the future is happenening old man

So robots will totally take over house building and humans will have nothing to do with it at some indefinite point in the future and that's why people right now should be worried about their jobs. I see.

Yes, we should be worried about it now.

It will happen and it will be much better if we can figure out how to handle the masses of unemployed before it is a problem.

This attitude of kicking the can down the road is exactly how things turn catastrophic.

I believe most jobs will be fully automated

[–] FlyingSquid 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

When? Why should that make people worried about their jobs now?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

In the future. And I literally never said people should be worrying about you, you're putting words in my mouth bro

[–] FlyingSquid 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That's what this thread is about.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

All I said is that we could have the possibility soon to have robots that place pipes. You're making this into a bigger thing

[–] FlyingSquid 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That's not what this thread is about.
