Reminds me of a visit to amazon where there were a ton of people packaging and labeling stuff into boxes and then into the robots. At the end of the tour we got to see a machine that eats a roll of cardboard and creates boxes on the fly for objects that are flowing into the machine from another conveyor. So the next phase will be people just taking stuff out of the truck and putting it on a conveyor.
horses probably get to live a much more chill life now that they are retired.
i just wish thatd be true for humans too. machines already replace most of us.
It is true already. Washing machines, dishwashers, tractors, lifts, escalators, cars, computers, cnc, power tools, cranes, etc. They make our life much more relaxed.
then why do i still have to work 9-6 like the computers i use arent making me as productive as a full room of bureaucrats were 40 years ago, while making a fraction of the actual money they did then?
Because with productivity the standard of living that most people expect has risen at least as much.
the standard of living is deteriorating though. we don’t have as good healthcare, transport or housing we had just a decade ago. the difference is we have more advanced electronics?
