There are various proposed outcomes.I'm just laying out the inevitability of it all and how much authoritarian power it would take to restrict it.


Proposed possibilities:

1) The luddite argument. Folks have been projecting for centuries that technology would take all our jobs. This has happened MANY times and often with more vigor. Imagine farmers being told they would only be 2% of the population within a century. It was unthinkable at that point. To this point, losing overall jobs has really not been the case. Could this break that trend? Possibly, but it's speculation at this point. But let's assume it does happen:

2) We allow x companies to utilize this blindingly powerful technology and for this, they pay a very high tax. This also allows them to sell to domestic individuals, to discourage offshoring. We begin utilizing minimum income distros, and...:

3) Working weeks become a fraction of what they are now. Again, companies pay to utilize this technology. The offset is individuals work less and others are distributed more.

These, of course, are considering humanity keeps control in a democratic manner. If the oligarchy takes over government itself, then it would become very dicey. But even then, they would need a buyer, right? So they will be encouraged to be within a system where both sellers and buyers can exist, otherwise they are losing out.


Oh, option 4:

The masses have control of production and said technology. Those managing it are given a pretty premium. The rest get COL distros. Something like that. Ofc this is all highly speculative, but futurists have been considering it for a hot minute. A resource-based economy is another interesting solution.

At this point it's all speculation, but we should be preparing society for the best possible outcomes, not burying our heads in the sand and destroying the machinery such as in the 1800s. We have to face this head on, in a serious manner.

Good or not, it's simply an inevitability, barring authoritarian measures.

Capitalism will make it so. Capitalism always strives toward efficiency and greed. Now, how does one stop that? Government intervention? Serious question.

Not sure how you halt a massive undergoing from thousands of individuals working digitally on separate projects any more than we can stop all hackers.

its definitely not just capitalisms pushing it. The Chinese are pushing it, and a lot of it is for their social engineering. Even our own government has sought to use it for their own ends, and I am not willing to ascribe their motives as benevolent.

Capitalism is pushing it so that someone can make a buck off of it before the government comes in and complete corrupts it. and some people are actually seeing the beneficial side of it. Its unfortunate that you can't separate the good from the bad. There are big pushes in the AI field for things like advanced medical care, diagnoses, and even the wacky direct interface to fix some brain issues. Or coming up with sustainable food, power, and other tools. Capitalism is like any tool, it depends on the person using it to determine if its bad or good. we figured out a LONG time ago that centralized/controlled/top down economies aren't great or fair, equitable, or any other positive adjective.

A disturbing new report shows the world's biggest tech companies forming an alliance with radical activists to promote a Marxist political agenda.

Kamala Harris- "And so, the machine is taught — and part of the issue here is what information is going into the machine that will then determine — and we can predict then, if we think about what information is going in, what then will be produced in terms of decisions and opinions that may be made through that process,”

Tesla robot attacked an engineer and left a trail of blood: Report

One of Tesla's manufacturing robots attacked an engineer at the Texas Gigafactory in an incident that left behind a trail of blood, according to a new report.
www.washingtonexaminer.com www.washingtonexaminer.com

Was it an actual attack or was the robot just executing its preprogrammed routine and the engineer got in the way? I tend to think it was the latter rather than the former. If true, this is just more sensationalist media coverage.

Right. I'm thinking dude likely wasn't paying attention to the factory arm and got in the way of its routine orders.
