People only need to work half as much.

Youll be a sex slave for the nwo

Depends who's running things

Nothing because I'll be designing/maintaining/programming the robots

Ill be happy that I changed my study from Political Science to Electricity.

>wtf happens when robots replace 50% of the workforce Sup Forums?

Robotics boosts production and, because of it, new wealth is created by which more business can be made that expands the workforce and employs more people.

Population decline of white people

Machines have replaced about 80% of worforce already.

as if most jobs are not force kept so people still have jobs...

Banking, fast food, insurance this can easily be replaced with a nice code .. but they still keep them. Some even argue that these are mostly women jobs it will leave the vast majority of women without jobs

My McDonald's order stops being fucked up half the time.

force companies to have a quota of humans or they a racist for only hiring robots

post-scarcity age
basic income
affordable sex robots

tell me about this shit the only day I got a quarter pounder and it had fucking lettuce on it and no mustard or ketchup

Dunno. Guess we'll have to be in her.

We are living in interesting times Sup Forums. Technology will revolutionize society - in fact, process started with the introduction of the internet. The real problem is: what to do with people incapable of doing anything with their lives without somebody ordering them 24/7. Think about it Sup Forums - there are so many people around you that don't have any OWN vision of life. Once simple tasks will be fulfilled by robots, what they will have to do? One more thing... people cannot live without any purpose. Ambitious and intelligent will find more complicated stuff to do, but the stupid ones will completely decay and become ultimate degenerates...

We will all move to different areas which are based on creativity, problem solving and other stuff computers/robots aren't good at, just like we did in the previous industrial revolutions.

The real question being asked is how do people get enough money to buy the goods they need and want.

I believe the best solution is to change the monetary policy and directly create money that isn't debt and distribute it to people or have the government spend it into the economy.

The most common complaint is OMG inflation. Which is correct if you do not properly control the amount of money created.

First banks no longer are able to expand the monetary supply by using fraction reserve banking.

The second step is that you directly relate the amount of money created and distributed or spent (by the government) into the economy by basing it off the difference between sales and incomes.

Simply put any business that is not going bankrupt has more income than it pays money to workers or investors. That is it has more sales than it gives money to people. That gap between sales and income is the exact balance of money that must be created to have enough money to support consumption, while having no inflation.

Take the total amount in the economy of all the sales and all the incomes and you have your economically driven monetary policy. As productivity goes up and fewer workers make more, more money is created allowing that extra production to be consumed. If a mass need for workers happens then wages go up and the amount of money needed to be created goes down.

This replicates a Basic Income and is the end to taxes. The government just takes a portion of the created money and spends it.

So in short you get basic income, no taxes, inflation free money, and can expand to meet the demand of the population. All with one simple change.

I rejoice with extremely cheap goods as the wealth trickles downward.

So you say instrad of embracing the freedom we get because of robots we should create more useless jobs just so we have to work all day?

Oy vey who could be behind this post

soem people can't do anything more complicated than simple actions. These people will be replaced by robots. What will civilization do with the useless ones? Create a zoo?

GUYS

What will happen to CAPTCHA?

They won't, most of /r9k/ are NEET autists.

>We will all move to different areas which are based on creativity, problem solving and other stuff computers/robots aren't good at, just like we did in the previous industrial revolutions.

Oh?

The job market goes to mechanical repair and maintainence

Stupid socialist cunt

Implying that the first major new market to get automated isn't robot maintenance and repair.

The industrialization that is currently happening is mostly affecting factories and similar. There are still numerous labor jobs which won't be replaced by machines for a while, mainly in construction.

Yeah. Delegating mindless labor and migrating to creative jobs is one of the main things driving technological advancement.

>Yeah. Delegating mindless labor and migrating to creative jobs is one of the main things driving technological advancement.
Just wait till computers do that better than humans.

Socialist utopia.

An inevitable movement towards socialistic principles will increase as robotic Labour increases.
Or terminator happens I guess.

IT sector evolves exponentially. It may slow down for a while but since the beginning (let's say 1980s) it evolved dramatically. We can predict that automatization will evolve as fast as IT for some time which means all mindless jobs will be replaced with robots in 20 years. Most of the people cannot work in more creative fields where they have to design something and think intuitively rather than automatically.

Wait till our robot overlords kill us all for better efficiency. Hard to get shit done with all these meatbags needing fed.

For us? Nothing. We will still shitpost.

basic income.

>wtf happens when the steam powered cotton weaver replace 50% of the workforce Sup Forums ?

Yes.

We are not entitled to food and shelter, even if there is a surplus of both. Thusly we need meaningless labor. If there are not enough jobs then the surplus population should die regardless of whether or not there is an available surplus of resources.

What happens to the draft animals once machines replaced them? Surely we have as many of them around and happy as we did that the peak...oh wait no their population was reduced to the level of hobby interest.

I'll be programming robots to lay piping and pull condoms or hair out of people's drains. It's almost like my job will stay the same.

Construction jobs aren't even close to being replaced by machines. It would require androids with human-like range of motion and extremely complex behavior.

Also, various forms of self-employment, which is where the world is going anyway.

>Construction jobs aren't even close to being replaced by machines. It would require androids with human-like range of motion and extremely complex behavior.

Well within our lifetime unless you are already retirement age.

We hope that we don't ever get hit by a major solar storm.

There will be a point in our future (near) where the majority of people won't NEED to work to keep society running and growing.

How we handle this will determine if these current civilizations last.

Tududu dudu dudu cant touch me. Tududu du dudu dudu cant touch me.

Sell drugs
Use drugs

once you reach certain point (like in deep learning) it starts to grow much faster than previously. What may take us 5 years to develop, may evolve in next 5 years dozens of times faster.

>surplus population should die regardless of whether or not there is an available surplus of resources

The African race wouldn't exist if this were true.

A share of the population will become idle and find new things to do. That's how civilization even started ("wtf happens when agriculture replaces 50% of the workforce"?)
Your average Joe may just watch netflix and cry his wages have dropped/times are worse, but he will be doing it telepathically riding automated cars

The same thing that always happens.

The media will redefine unemployment, productivity and other numbers and pretend that all is going well. They will cry about a lack of workers in certain branches to skew the numbers even more, forcing well-trained workers to work for worse conditions because there's too many people competing for the jobs.
In the meantime, job conditions for workers will be getting worse and worse and the middle class will evaporate while more and more people end up on the streets.
The rich become richer and gain even more power, allowing them to bring back feudalism. Except that, now, humans are barely needed for work, so they will only be kept for enjoyment.

And now consider that most of this is already happening. Unemployment statistics are fake as fuck, for example.

>American posting at this hour on a Tuesday

Sounds like you already do that you fucking degenerate faggot.

We are also not entitled to have safety. Why are there laws to protect people's things?
It's survival of the fittest. If I am a negro with sociopathic tendencies due to his upbringings why should he get locked up for slicing you in hundred pieces with a butcher knife? I mean common it was your fault for being a weak person.

Also we are not entitled to own land. How can you claim that the land you build your house on is yours? I just come and build my house on your shit?
Who says that I can't come and rape your wife if I am stronger than you`?

Oh but you say I can't do that? Why? Are you entitled to laws? I dont think so. It is law of the nature and survival of the fittest, so stop with this fucking laws and all this pussy bullshit. fucking faggot

If robots will have at least performance of 90 IQ, there will be an unprecedented situation incompatible with past experience. In other words - it is a point of completely new perspective with uncertain result.

>new things to do

Look at a post-industrial ghetto / trailer park and see what happens.

>mfw china has actually gone down

Population reduction

Technological unemployment scales with the sophistication of automation.
In the west people were able to pivot from a low skill manufacturing economy to a service economy, but what happens when the service economy is largely automated too?

What happens when the only jobs that aren't automated or old people care assistants require a 140 IQ bare minimum?

>IQ of 90
An IQ of 10 will be more than enough.
Fuck, if they register on the scale at all, it will be enough.
The intelligence level of a bee will be enough to make most work doable by machines.

Remember, we are talking about specialized devices made with purpose in mind, not living things with lots of superfluous uses of their brain power.

Hardly. The lower class will always breed, no matter what.

>Remember, we are talking about specialized devices made with purpose in mind, not living things with lots of superfluous uses of their brain power.
living or not, current technology gives us foundations to create quite flexible intelligence in the future. Even now we can see how machine learning can lead to a revolution of the same scale as in 19th century.

The question that will raise itself at some point is: Why even produce anymore on such a scale? Most of the population will become unemployed sooner or later, so they have nothing to offer in return for the goods.
Unless you provide them with welfare, in which case they are just using parts of the revenue generated by the automated plants to pay for the goods from those plants.

Once you reach high degrees of automation our current economical system stops making sense and will have to be replaced. The only question is what we will replace it with - communism 2.0 where the society seizes those factories or a massive downsizing of the industry because the wealthy will basically just produce for themselves and tell the rest to fuck off?

Who needs a job when you can sell drugs and keep your4 profits tax-free?

Or do you hate freedom and capitalism, like all anti-drug faggots?

I wonder if copyright laws will remain.

Best case, we start expanding to the stars.

As an aside, something for Germanbros:
finanzmarktwelt.de/die-tatsaechliche-arbeitslosenquote-in-deutschland-eine-erwiderung-10749/

>Best case, we start expanding to the stars.

That would be the case that would make the most sense. After we reach (almost) full automation the game of "how do we distribute these resources based on effort put into processing them" ends (since processing them is not the limiting factor anymore) and the game of "where can we find more?" begins.

But it's not like we always do the most logical thing so who knows.


Also yeah, our unemployment numbers are obviously bullshit. We have people with doctorates (in useful areas) who have to write hundred and more applications.

We start to enjoy life without the burden of meaningless labor.

We improve ourselves.

Hopefully.

hahahahahahah

The new job for humans will be peddling exercise bikes that charge giant batteries.

Like the matrix but not as bad

Women get back in the kitchen/bedroom.

If you listen to these faggots everyone'll apparently become successful artists and other creative workers, media, advertising or engineers who take care of these robots.

mass orgies and increase of criminal. because people are monkeys especially in multiculti states. without jobs everybody will be bored like elite in ancient rome.(mass orgies, zoophilia etc)

detroid and chicago will be like africa

Simple. People will start pursuing intellectual professions like programming and journalism that can't be done by robots.

No. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industry_4.0

This is why EU, USA and other 1 world REALLY DONT NEED immigrants

The people at the top will get richer. The people at the bottom will be poorer. More crime will be committed. Race relations will deteriorate further.

>like programming and journalism that can't be done by robots
how is it going in 1995 bro?

wake up its 2016 robots can be journalists already

Not quite...

Not quite?

I have never seen a more neutral journalist

All of this was created because it fosters living conditions that are well suited for innovation and human advancements.
It's not about being entitled to something by nature, but about creating an optimal environment for civilization to flourish.

its bot there are already better AI.
also WHO THE FUCK needs in hundreds of millions( there will be 8 bln ppl by 2030) of journalists/writers/musicians and other hipster shit?

I know cuckgermany. It was just to show him what a stupid faggot he is.

Because if we can create a surplus of food and shelter, there is no reason not to give it to people because it creates a better world.

If on one hand you make laws that give you an advantage you also have to deal with the consequences.
If you create a world where it is for example illegal to hunt or have your own farm etc or if it is your fault that what is unclean and you can't drink it naturally etc you have to make up for these things.

Laws and limits which favour every one or complete anarchy and survival of the fittest. The rest is just some faggot bullshit only a stupid nigger could think of.
