+Oouska Wizard I'm 58 years old and have been on my job for almost 36 years. Pay and benefits are great but my Team (DoD Security, Aerospace Facility) has shrunk from 14 men to 6 men since I was hired. Due to better CCTV and Alarm Sensor Capabilities we now do the work with less than half the people we used just 3 decades ago. I think the six of us are safe because you will always need at least ONE MAN to tend the facility and monitor the machines/computers/sensors and respond to problems. I just need 7 more years to retirement. God help my 5 grandchildren...
@noahwilliams8996 8 років тому
randy109 You mean humans are still involved in security? That's lame.
@randy109 8 років тому
+Noah Williams I take it you haven't entered an Aerospace Facility or Boarded a Plane in a while. Security at Stadiums, Industrial Plants and Casinos will always need Human Beings. But, there will only be about 5-6 "guards" at an Aerospace Plant where there used to be 20+. Cameras, Alarms, Card Access (and so on) replaced about 25% of Humans in the Security business and our Electronic Friends don't sleep or drink on the job. Firemen, Cops, Security Guards and EMT's are just a few fields that will always need Humans. Maybe "Robocop" is coming soon...
@noahwilliams8996 8 років тому
randy109 The assumption that ANY job will always be done by humans is a bad one. Robots can theoretically do anything that's possible. Technology makes what's theoretically possible practically possible. It's not a matter of IF all human security guards will be replaced, it's a matter of WHEN will they be replaced.

When playing a Minecraft Tech mod with my gf I realised this. She didn't want me to automate her work in the game. I usually always automate any production line I need in the game. Up to the point where I litterarly have nothing to do, and so I get bored and quit the game. My girlfriend asked me not to automate her stuff, though repetetive, it is still something to do. We then needed too much material to continue with the same manual labour, thus automating the things that we did not have time for, and instead started to work on the next step. Making sure not to make ourselves unecessary. Much better experience.

Do something that requires moving around to various locations and performing complex, non-repetitive manipulation of three dimensional objects and decision making. This is probably among the most difficult things and last things to replicate. For example an electrician. You've got to go to buildings. Each with a different layout. Locate electrical problems. Decide on paths for wires. Move them through walls. Make decisions on which walls to cut into. So on and so forth. It's all dealing with lots of decisions, each performed in a different and changing environment.

I don't want to say the unwanted horse population was culled, it was just not replaced, and breeding was managed to cap domesticated horse populations. You can't really do this to humans, even slowly without them freaking out. There is really only one outcome due to over-automation. Economic collapse due to there being nobody to buy goods anymore, which eventually would lead to revolution. The likely winner at the end of that revolution is a dictatorship.

Now we have no excuse to not provide basic survival needs to all people. Yeah, the unemployment rate is going to skyrocket, but that's only a problem if we're running on an economy that refuses to feed, house, or heal people unless they work for it. If these unemployed people are able to survive despite their unemployment, I see no issue here. They now have the free time to learn, explore, and create. The concept of a job might become obsolete, and humans will no longer squander their lives for the funds to keep living. Maybe, when the machines become our entire labor force and the billions of us have no essential tasks we must perform, our species will finally be able to advance.

Rewatching this video, you can already see some of the side effects of automation, where the lowest level of employees are replaced, and some of the old workers becoming robot supervisors and some aren't replaced once they quit. But the unintended side effect of cutting the bottom of the pyramid off, is that suddenly you need fewer managers for the new fewer supervisors, but you also need fewer bathrooms for them, smaller canteens, fewer security guards to watch them and they produce less paperwork so you need fewer admin staff, fewer outside contractors like plumbers, less furniture, etc... The angle of the pyramid stays the same, so for every layer that gets cut off the bottom, you cut off a layer of support staff from the side. Unfortunately, suddenly staff are becoming ever more multifunctional and generalist because the total number of tasks are shrinking, and whoever stays the longest gets more and more time spent on training.

@@jayk3551 Well, I would prefer if you dont bring "Societal Conditioning" into this, because personally I enjoy working for things. Im a gamer and even in video games I prefer struggling toward my goals. There's no fun to it if there isnt a challenge. Though I can see where you're coming from. (im 19 years old btw) My biggest question that I ask people to get to know what kind of person they are is this: "Would you rather die in five days and be remembered forever, or live forever but never be recognized for anything you acheive?" How would you answer?

If you're short on time to watch this video, then here is a synopsis by chatGPT: "Humans Need Not Apply" is a video by CGP Grey that discusses the potential impact of automation and artificial intelligence on the workforce. The video argues that as technology continues to advance, more and more jobs will be replaced by machines, leading to widespread unemployment and social upheaval. Grey explores the history of automation and its effects on the job market, and suggests that we need to start thinking about how to address the challenges that this technology presents. He also offers some potential solutions, such as universal basic income, but ultimately concludes that the future of work is uncertain and will require careful consideration and planning.

It’s hard to see solutions to this problem that is coming our way rather quickly and dangerously and just mostly being ignored by the people who’s positions are to help us be ok! I’m curious though to what you guys think is a helpful solution to this? Like what do you guys think is a path that we can change to go into a reality where this isn’t devastating. As in for example a general yearly income for every person thus making “Work” more of a hobby then a necessity. What do you guys think?
@lomiification Рік тому
I don't think it's a problem that will need solving over time. Instead, declining birth rates will be matched by fewer human jobs available. This instead solves problems that we do have, like scaling up the number of court cases that are heard to match the demand for them
