Video: Atlas, The Next Generation Robot

[xslugx]

People worrying about jobs...there will just be new jobs to replace the old jobs.

We used to have people who's job was to copy books by hand. They did not all die when it was automated. Telephone operators used to route your call, then it was automated. There was not a widespread epidemic of dying telephone operators.

As technology advances, we are able to do more. And that requires more people.

People used to wake up, spend all day either gathering their food or preparing the food or preparing to get through winter. Now we spend a tiny percentage of our productivity on feeding ourselves giving us time for tons of other things.

Technology will just ensure that even less of our productivity is spent on our essential needs.

Yeah but the amount of jobs created is ALWAYS lower than the amount of jobs destroyed

Then create your own job. Lots of people did it and live more than comfortably.

So, now that we have technology to create books we never made up for the amount of scribes who lost their jobs?

Those who think that new jobs will be created when machines have AI, pretty much equate their own brain with a vending machine -obviously.

it reminds me old science ficiton movies. but i am scare to death beceuse these androids would take posseion of us someday in the future..

you are completely right .. these robots will screw whole the humanity because of the guy who treated them brutally in the video..

[Wilikon]

That dude at the end is a dick.

I'm sure the robot will remember him.

Us, not just him...

 

True...revenge against all humans for getting pushed around by a hockey stick.

the descendants of Atlas could very well look back in 20 years and think that their brothers from 2016 were treated not that good thanks to modern AI

Today´s worker basically wipes the asses of other people. Once robots can do that humans soon won´t be needed in the entire service industry. Manufacturing gone, services gone, what then?

Ever seen Star Trek or any futuristic show?

People do a lot of cool things. Things that are accomplished because they spend less time wiping people's butts and more time thinking up cool things to do. And with robots...they can do them.

Star trek or any futuristic show? We´re talking the next 20-30 years tops here. Manufacturing, services gone, what´ll be left for humans to do? Cool things? It´ll have to be entire cool industries. Inventing new jobs won´t do.

[arbitrage]

Humans will become redundant for many jobs. Robots can done many jobs better than humans this is obvious.
What is future here and for whom will be bright?

Yeah but in those societies they mainly work for the army in order to fight the other alien races --'

The future should be a 20h work week paid like a current 40h week. If robots can do the job we won't need to work any more.

Yes and no one will pay you not to works.
Those who stay without jobs will be hungry or will help rising criminal activities, in order to get money to feed hungry kids.
Only true satisfactions from this will have multinational corporation.

They should. Companies and governments are greedy as hell, but truth is companies NEVER EVER earned more money than today.

Everyday they take more and more profits.

Maybe it would be time to think about paying the employees more too.

And this industry will create enough jobs to replace the ones it destroyed?

I don't think so...

[eon89]

Well the programming and AI industry will skyrocket even more than in the present.
People will be free to think, love, create, discuss.
But I'm afraid this will also make us weaker.

Not just that one industry but all of the industries that pop up because of the cheap manufactured goods.

Look at Hong Kong, they have zero manufacturing but are a vibrant economy.

Correcton:
Look at Honk Kong and Switzerland and Luxembourg and Ireland they have zero manufacturing but are a vibrant economy as they're actually the 4 places in the world companies send money to in order to avoid taxes.
