RE: The Automation Nation - Biggest Threat To Human Life

in #technology6 years ago

Wow @kevingblogger I’m so sorry I missed this super insightful comment, better late than never right?

I agree with what you’re saying all these AI, IOT and automation tools are poorly made because business wants to get to market fast and damn what the engineers need they need to iterate will the business generates revenue for the already loaded shareholders future returns!

While I have no problem with technological improvements I just feel theirs zero altruism in the process and it will affect how the products disrupt the market

Yes their will be jobs for a select few as these new technologies find their feet but it will still be far less than keeping a healthy middle class employed and contributing

This is going to have serious social, political and economic impacts we’re not ready for!

In an ideal world as you state that extra money we make from robots could be used to subsidize jobs that should have a better wage making it attractive to people, we will also need to look at encouraging SMEs and creating local opportunities for people!

I’m not sure what the jobs of the future hold but it’s going to be a big job for humanity to overcome! Unfortunately I see the US and first world will be the first to have to figure it out and get the bloody noses so when the rest of the world does catch up we have solution

I’m just afraid this is just going to exacerbate corporate wealth which could lead to unrest and war
