Chan Automation Tracking Thread

[Shami-Amourae]

I really love reading threads on Automation on 4chan and 8chan. I thought I'd make a thread I could post them to so you guys could read in on the discussions.

Keep note that many of these links may be expired when you click them, so click them fast when they are posted.

Cannot wait for that and the ensuing chimpout when they fire 99% of burger flippers. At that point people are forced to get a real education or just wither away and die.

Or collect government checks for the rest of their lives.

It's getting out of hand. There are way more people around here collecting SSI checks than are working. I just had my 2014 taxes done and the IRS took 36 percent. I may as well lay down my tools.

Meatpacking robots:

JBS, one of the largest producers of meat in the world, is considering robotic meatpackers for its future workforce. When technology gets to the point that the robots can accurately and reliably sense bones in the meat, they'll be able to butcher it and pack it.
There are 250,000 meatpacking jobs in the US that are at risk from this technology. A 2013 study by Oxford University found that 45% of US jobs will come under risk from automation in the next 20 years. Gartner tech consulting firm predicts that 1/3rd of jobs will be done by smart machines by 2025.
A few decades ago, a meatpacking job was enough to support a family.

how come there's no auto at the exec level? their 'decisions' could certainly be improved by inputting all the data into an AI program

THAT would save shareholders untold billions -- replace entire top floor with a couple of data entry indians

first company that does this, i become shareholder

Anyone watch "person of Interest"? It's about nice AI in New York. It is on Netflix.

Automated labour, self driving cars, globalized manufacturing

Best quote from that thread:


We are replacing humans, not merely human labor. This isn't a case where the humans go off and do something else - the robots can do that something else too.


Your only possible argument here is that there is something special about humans that robots will never be able to match, which sets them apart from us and allows us to do things they can't do.


Unfortunately for you, there's no evidence to suggest robots can't do anything and everything humans can - it's literally just a matter of technological development.


Humans better think of things we can do that robots can't if we want to stay useful! Otherwise we all die or become welfare queens!

[Glass]

what will really get things rolling will be when the robots can redesign themselves. I'm 100% confident that man is producing very inefficient robots in both structure, movement and processor design. I think once the machines can get a chance to do some design they will work this out pretty quickly and produce a machine with capabilities far in excess of anything we've seen or thought of to date.

I also find it interesting that current mil spec design of war devices is looking at very high energy weapons. Makes you wonder how they are sourcing their energy.

http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2016/03/17/carls-jr-ceo-wants-to-replace-all-human-workers-with-robots/

>Eatsa, the mostly automated healthy, fast food bowl shop based in San Francisco, has inspired the CEO of Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s to rethink the traditional workforce—by replacing all humans with robots

>"I want to try it," CEO Andy Puzder told Business Insider. "We could have a restaurant that's focused on all-natural products and is much like an Eatsa, where you order on a kiosk, you pay with a credit or debit card, your order pops up, and you never see a person."

Scary stuff. The CEO of Carl's Jr. wants to imitate Eatsa. He wants to completely gut Carl's Jr. of all its employees and replace them with machines. There is a Carl's Jr. near me where workers depend on their jobs, this guy wants to fire them all and have a restaurant completely staffed with robots.

Automation is just going to keep being a bigger and bigger problem in the future. We're already seeing jobs disappear due to automation, and its just going to get worse.

Why do people argue that when all things become automated, we shall live in a post scarcity society that needs not any human work?

First how does full automation remove the limited resources that earth itself has?

Second how does full automation step into the place of replacing specialist careers and careers that take intellect?

Even if you automated everything there would still be limited resources and there would still be products to be bought and sold and there would still many careers and jobs that require actual mental work.

Can someone explain how I am wrong and how full automation actually somehow makes us into a post-scarcity society without capitalism?

Most people are just not designed for mental work. What should they do?
