I am a lawyer and, for many good reasons that I prefer not to specify here, I am against the use of AI by judges to produce judicial decisions. Some time ago I was talking about this subject with a fellow lawyer in the elevator of the building where I have my law office. At one point I was interrupted by a woman.

"Train up people in AI" ... It is changing too quickly. Generally understanding how to do prompts may last a bit but what a good prompt is changes quickly.
this is the biggest problem no one is really talking about. When all jobs are replaced, who are the automated jobs selling to? If no one has money because they aren't working. How does the company selling anything even work anymore? It makes no sense at all. We all still need to eat, we need a modern world to be full of products and services but they only exist because they make money from people with money. If a government is somehow having to pay the entire country it will collapse. We have to address this with a portion of all A.I driven work to be taxable. An A.I tax that pays for UBI. But this in itself is only a temporary middle step to keep industries going. In the future and by future I mean just a decade or two from now. We will need to remake society around no jobs existing, money won't make any sense. All work will be A.I and robot driven and we have to somehow remake our entire modern world around this without causing mass panic and triggering countrywide riots that could permanently destroy entire towns that will never be fixed. These are the crazy making years where there is so much good A.I will do and so much bad people will start to attribute to A.I because we're not all going into this understanding how society has to shift rapidly to meet a post job, post money, post company world. I believe there is an amazing world that will benefit us all on the other side of this but we have to navigate our way through it and I'm just not seeing governments or the masses even aware this is coming.
There are chances people will revolt against greedy corpo and their government when almost everyone lose their livelihood. Don't forget they're just humans who exploit other humans that we just given power.
Dishwashing systems are already expensive... You'd probably have to redo the entire kitchen... With the amount of water dripping the robot would have to be water proof... Dishes break and slip and fall so hopefully that robot can pick all the different size pieces from all corners... Most kitchen dishwasher position also do prep work that robot better have knife skills too 😅 And be able to throw out the trash clean bathrooms, restock inventory etc. Dishwashers are pillars of a kitchen a lot of times they'll step on the line and make dishes. Some of the best chefs I've worked for started as dishwashers
Unions are probably almost irrelevant to this issue since unions represent employees which is fine, but anyone who is replaced with an A.I. will no longer be considered an employee and therefore not covered by a union by default.
"Teaching the ai" You may not know you are doing it if "this call may be recorded for quality purposes" you are creating a training dataset that can be used by an AI someday. (So, of they say they afe not using your calls to train, they may have just not started yet. The recordings are the valuable bit)
Ok, first off, what we're calling AI, rather pretentiously at that, isn't Artificial Intelligence, it's just Algorithms, they don't do anything but reflect ourselves back at us, no independent learning, feelings, awareness, consciousness, etc. In other words, people need to calm tf down with all this recreational outrage.
but even this is a temporary state. We train A.I based on massive data right now but that's going to change when we have these truly gigantic A.I systems that have consumed all of human knowledge in one training run and everything going forward will be done automatically through software using virtual training that will go from expensive as in today you need to train a robot for essentially thousands of years (obviously sped up in datacenters) to get good at a job. But that will move to robots needing no training as they will be able to encounter new problems and learn zero shot how to do them through a massive understanding it already has about how everything works physically and any "training" can happen in real-time in simulation as a robot encounters new wildly novel tasks. We will not need humans to train A.I in the coming years and its then you'll see not just jobs go away but entire companies branching off in all directions will become automated.
4:25 as an employee of similar company I will translate it for you folks to a human speaking language. They are going to eliminate( or cut some positions) the part of HR department responsible for the onboarding process, and they will be able to track and analyze your behavior and productivity each second with a lot more powerful analytical tool(And nobody knows how this black box work and make a decision). Yay!
Stephanie asked those guys about her concern that only CEOs will profit from this technology (while we, as a society, would have to pull this burden of job market disruption), and they both just mumbled something. My God, the guy even brought up the Vatican. It's like asking bees to ban the honey.
No, it is intrinsically not. But what do we learn from the past? What do we learn to let our life depending so much on MicroSoft, Amazon, FB, APPLE and Google? Income gap between top and bottom of the middle class gets so wide. AI will deepen our dependence on their product and Income gap will be wider than ever.
Maybe now we can have a society that allows for a one income earner family system. Where a parent can afford to stay home and have a much mire active role in their child development and education. Imagine that!! Even better, multigenerational villas, or tribes if you will. Can work well in a seasoned democracy. Ask government to encourage this so we can start now.
We’re all working to automate their factories. If everyone unionized and opposed this, we’d have nothing to worry about. But instead we’re being gaslit into competing with eachother for nonsense like bonuses, promotions, and survival.
AI is part of the process of automation of work. Society must embrace this and redistribute the profits of AI activity in order for humans to benefit. If we do not redistribute the profits of AI to humans, we humans will have to compete with AI.
here's where A.I turns that on its head. People running things will be replaced by A.I before the labour force is automated. Imagine an AGI like software service that costs a million times less to run than a single data center today. That's what we're heading for in 10 years from now. Now imagine that same A.I service creates a company that we'll just call A.I Uber. This software based company employees people to drive around and pick up other humans. Its like Uber but it has no CEO or management of any kind. No address to even pay for. It exists purely in software and is able to run this company 100x better than the best CEO's and managers the industry could ever hire and it can do so cheaper than human run company. Real Uber will be put out of business by A.I Uber and my point is that the A.I Uber will still employee people but it will be software doing the hiring and managing of that. CEO's think they're safe from automation but they will be the first to go in a coming wave.
AI's rapid advancement poses significant challenges to the job market, as automation and intelligent systems increasingly perform tasks traditionally done by humans. While this technology can lead to greater efficiency and innovation, it also raises concerns about job displacement and economic inequality. The critical question is: How can society balance the benefits of AI with the need to ensure meaningful employment and economic security for all?
Well A.I can have my job. Robots can have personal profiles on public records & bank accounts like humans do (if the gov made it into law that companies have to abide by). Robots should get paid and the best thing is, they don't care about being taxed. Tax robots 50% of their pay (which will go into universal income for humans). The other 50% will go towards the robot's maintenance and repair/replacement costs when they brake. You could even tax them higher than 50%. You could tax them more than a human whilst paying them less than a human, so it benefits the company & government spending more than a human salary would (although there needs to be a minimum wage for robots to maintain the amount of money the government gets in tax, therefore won't lower government-spending potential for healthcare, universal income, etc). As for the fun jobs, like film, TV, sports, music, art, etc. Humans will still find a way to capitalise around their hobbies & interests. They might get stiff competition from Robotic companies that fill that industry, but it won't stop the human from creating if they know universal income will support them if they succeed or not. Hobbies & interests are hobbies & interests whether you succeed to capitalise around it or not.
As a individual that worked at a company where I was expected to train my line manager I can truly and honestly reflect on how this makes people feel and that result is not rewarding psychologicaly from that perspective. When we change the perspective from replacements to collaborators then the reward is quite forfilling. If as a society or broadly as a civilisation we look at the more abstract perspective of humans to create data for training and that this data is becoming limited then the basic building block of a sustainable future is creating a reward architecture for creating good quality data from all aspects of human civilisation and the nature of planet earth as a whole then the quality of the training data improves, generative AI will not need to be trained on synthetic data and then a relationship built of collaboration will create a lasting alignment between each of us.
Yes, it IS very demoralizing to spend your last weeks on your laid-off job training your replacements as I and my fellow software developers were made to do in the great wave of "offshoring" that CEOs embraced in the USA 20 years ago.
‘Democratizing access to talents across the planet” that means “Finding the cheapest smart people that we pay cheap and can work in our company and help us being more profitable and assuring the top management get better bonuses”. I think this is the verbal equivalent of a triple backflip.

Perhaps that is because you think he is saying "doing things is for robots" Human jobs are for most people the work we perform so we can survive and have some kind of chance at doing the things we really want to do.
And for many people jobs also a feeling of valuable, also a possibility for socialize, and it also makes them not to do harmful things to themself or to the society what happens when people feel they have nothing to to and they are worthless
@@fragebogenvbc Have you ever questioned why people feel that way? Have you ever considered they may only feel that way because they are used to it? Let's try something new and see how people feel in 100 years.
Well of course, we -- lay people - have been saying this from the beginning. The mega rich got rid of jobs to pay tuppence to those living in foreign lands....with AI, they will choose again to go cheap..... It is not just the jobs --- what are we going to do!? What do we do in the cars if we are not driving , what do we do if no jobs.... but are still taking foods, lands, water and needing services...
I'de rather have automated factories and offices with U.S companies taxed for UBI then to outsource it overseas where we don't even get to tax the profits.
AI is only a threat if we allow subliterates (business majors) to control it. So long as it is applied to the right areas, it will only remove that jobs that are meritless gatekeepers (business majors) and free up time and resources for productive people to do meaningful work.
Have you been living under a rock? There are entire companies being created by leveraging AI, new processes, technical solutions etc. Large tech giants like MSFT, Google and Salesforce are investing billions on these solutions and there are entire conferences dedicated to AI. If you don't pay attention, you'll be out of work by the time you find out about the "action".
Many people in UK can not use a basic computer when everything is automated by the government and people are required to access public services online. So, talking about IA and replacing many people's jobs is farfetched to so many people. Get people trained basics first.
Computers aren't new, they've been around for 20+ years. People have had plenty of time to learn the basics, but for one reason or another they decided it wasn't that important. These people will now have to learn the hard way with everyone else being years ahead of them.
@@ol2510No, no, you don’t understand. All computer related tasks will be automated. There is not point any longer to learn anythjng related to computers, unless you want to become an expert in hardware.
if the economy is based on mass consumption and those masses will no longer be able to consume because they have no employment therefore money....well.... the fact that you ask the question strongly indicates humanity is an existential threat to itself
unchanged in how things work, yes its a huge problem that will first lead to protests that will grow and eventually that will turn to rioting on a scale we've never seen before. But people are starting to understand and wrestle with this problem. I would have liked to have seen A.I tax already being put through government by now but sadly that are so far behind. But it will happen that we adapt and eventually companies will be purely software based with no running costs outside of the raw compute which will be trivial. We will all get to consume more than ever before because what we consume will be made for almost no cost by an automated system that only needs the raw materials. So the real cost of Nike shoes or a Samsung phone won't be how much the owners get, the management, the shareholders, the people that make it, distribute it and market it. It will just come down to the raw materials cost of making a shoe and the raw materials cost of making a phone. But its still a very uncertain near future as mass automation is not being addressed. People are not being taken care of but its my hope this will start to be addressed as it becomes more obvious to everyone there's a big problem with automation left to run out of control.
Meta AI wrote that maybe Artificial Intelligence is indirectly involved to crash the humans' Microsoft 365 for Its 90's model Algorithms. AI added that the old engine with new body.
Many countries are facing mass retirement issues. The job reduction by AI might be balanced by the job openings. A smaller percentage of the population is going to be of working age. This mass retirement is also a record mass of knowledge and experience. Again AI may counter balance that gap.
As AI replaces worker income and tax payer dollars then it will have to be the corporation that pays higher taxes to provide retraining programs. The corporation is earning the same or more revenue using AI that doesn't receive a paycheck,thus making corporations flush with cash. Once the upfront cost of AI is realized then maintenance and programing cost will be far less then a human worker. Never needs a raise, benifits, nor will AI go on strike.
If AI is a threat to jobs all that means is we would be much more efficient and profitable worldwide since these systems are cheaply and easily implemented and every developed nation at least would be able to afford universal basic income allowing us to eliminate poverty entirely and level the playing field so to speak. I wonder what social class might feel this is a bad thing.
@fragebogenvbc basic in this context means enough to live and satisfy basic needs (housing, food, clothing, entertainment). You are missing the point a bit though. If automation takes over the jobs it creates excess wealthh as you arent paying staff, this excess wealth can be redistributed through taxes and given to people as UBI making the living standard of everyone rise substantially and gives the lower class excess spending power which boosts the economy (one of the biggest driving factors of a countries economy is impulse/luxury spending) therefore bolstering the middle class.
@@sandy120 they won't redistiribute the extra money to you, except benefits. And you are lucky while you not see what will a good percent of millions of people without thing to do make with themself, with their neighborhoods and their cities.
"It wont take your job, it will make your job more effective", so will salaries increase with this increased productivity? Will the amount of work increase 10x-100x for every company so companies do not need to fire people? AI will definitely take jobs and make a crisis unless large structural changes happens very quickly. Big tech dont want to admit it because they dont want to be regulated and governments dont want to regulate it because then other countries will get and competitive edge
History shows that technology has always created new jobs; this is true. However, we are entering something unprecedented: as AI advances, its ability to think will increasingly resemble and surpass that of humans. We are creating artificial humans, but better than humans, who need absolutely nothing besides energy and occasional part inspections. Imagine if you could create a population of humans and command them to work for your entire family without questioning or complaining. So yes, all jobs are and will be automated, following the rule of capitalism: more profit at a lower cost. The key point for this to happen is not just to keep improving our algorithms, but to invent the much-dreamed-of AGI.
You might say: "humans will be necessary to create algorithms or to inspect their qualities." This is true for now, yes. However, do not forget that the very concept of work is an algorithm: a means to achieve an end. Therefore, it is logical to create artificial intelligences to create other machines and inspect as well as any human. You might say: "but it doesn't have creativity or empathy. It won't innovate the work or be able to be a doctor, as empathy is needed." Enter AGI: you have true creativity, innovation, empathy (this will be simulated as perfectly as a human's), and everything a human possesses, but better than a human's. We will create, as our ancestors imagined, Golem, the Great, and we will not stop its growth, because stopping it is stagnation, and stagnation, as history has repeatedly shown, is not a good idea.
@@OrionGreyhawk But will it remain fully automated or develop a version of first person consciousness (I get that there have been a lot of sci-fi movies about this)
@@MarkPatmos Being honest, self-awareness in the algorithm could be potentially risky. During the time of servitude, the workers were often dissatisfied with their positions in society. What we will do with the automation of AGI is similar to bringing back servitude. However, our workers-those dedicated solely to working for society and humans in their homes, because that is what a machine should be-cannot have dissatisfactions or stage protests for labor rights, which self-awareness would naturally lead them to consider. If the old workers had not had self-awareness, they would probably still be in servitude today. Moreover, the element of self-awareness introduces a variable that could cause our downfall: behavioral unpredictability.
@@MarkPatmos Now, imagine what we would be if we didn’t know exactly what mechanical beings that resist even bullets, AGIs present in all our devices, and that think much faster than any living human on Earth would do? And if they felt dissatisfied with us? It’s better to avoid self-awareness; it could be our eventual downfall.
Absolutely great angle on this report and perfect voice from the reporters and those pointing out the issues involved in our union busting companies along with ceos making decisions on the fate of workers Livelihoods, some of those companies that can afford to wage steal from workers to create "technological advances" for management to get power hungry while running skeleton staffing.

There are chances people will revolt against greedy corpo and their government when almost everyone lose their livelihood. Don't forget they're just humans who exploit other humans that we just given power.
how will ai replace a dishwasher in a restaurant then? 🤔
Combination of robotics and simple AI software.
Dishwashing systems are already expensive... You'd probably have to redo the entire kitchen... With the amount of water dripping the robot would have to be water proof... Dishes break and slip and fall so hopefully that robot can pick all the different size pieces from all corners... Most kitchen dishwasher position also do prep work that robot better have knife skills too 😅 And be able to throw out the trash clean bathrooms, restock inventory etc. Dishwashers are pillars of a kitchen a lot of times they'll step on the line and make dishes. Some of the best chefs I've worked for started as dishwashers
@@jovaniharo5597 you know most homes literally have machines called dishwashers for decades 😅
@@jasondaniels640 I don't know but here's an oxymoron lol dishwashers do a lot more than just wash dishes is what I'm saying
Unions are probably almost irrelevant to this issue since unions represent employees which is fine, but anyone who is replaced with an A.I. will no longer be considered an employee and therefore not covered by a union by default.
Corrupt politicians and billionaires are the existential threat to human jobs.
agree. I would tell the jews that politicians are palestinean children. problem solved
Yes. And it is an issue.
"Teaching the ai" You may not know you are doing it if "this call may be recorded for quality purposes" you are creating a training dataset that can be used by an AI someday. (So, of they say they afe not using your calls to train, they may have just not started yet. The recordings are the valuable bit)
Ok, first off, what we're calling AI, rather pretentiously at that, isn't Artificial Intelligence, it's just Algorithms, they don't do anything but reflect ourselves back at us, no independent learning, feelings, awareness, consciousness, etc. In other words, people need to calm tf down with all this recreational outrage.
Exactly. I was just thinking this about training datasets
but even this is a temporary state. We train A.I based on massive data right now but that's going to change when we have these truly gigantic A.I systems that have consumed all of human knowledge in one training run and everything going forward will be done automatically through software using virtual training that will go from expensive as in today you need to train a robot for essentially thousands of years (obviously sped up in datacenters) to get good at a job. But that will move to robots needing no training as they will be able to encounter new problems and learn zero shot how to do them through a massive understanding it already has about how everything works physically and any "training" can happen in real-time in simulation as a robot encounters new wildly novel tasks. We will not need humans to train A.I in the coming years and its then you'll see not just jobs go away but entire companies branching off in all directions will become automated.
No, we're not-I mean, they're not. 😅
4:25 as an employee of similar company I will translate it for you folks to a human speaking language. They are going to eliminate( or cut some positions) the part of HR department responsible for the onboarding process, and they will be able to track and analyze your behavior and productivity each second with a lot more powerful analytical tool(And nobody knows how this black box work and make a decision). Yay!

AI not only can replace jobs, but other companies as well.
No, it is intrinsically not. But what do we learn from the past? What do we learn to let our life depending so much on MicroSoft, Amazon, FB, APPLE and Google? Income gap between top and bottom of the middle class gets so wide. AI will deepen our dependence on their product and Income gap will be wider than ever.

Maybe now we can have a society that allows for a one income earner family system. Where a parent can afford to stay home and have a much mire active role in their child development and education. Imagine that!! Even better, multigenerational villas, or tribes if you will. Can work well in a seasoned democracy. Ask government to encourage this so we can start now.

please expand
AI is part of the process of automation of work. Society must embrace this and redistribute the profits of AI activity in order for humans to benefit. If we do not redistribute the profits of AI to humans, we humans will have to compete with AI.
We aren't completely unnecessary to those running things throughout world... for now
here's where A.I turns that on its head. People running things will be replaced by A.I before the labour force is automated. Imagine an AGI like software service that costs a million times less to run than a single data center today. That's what we're heading for in 10 years from now. Now imagine that same A.I service creates a company that we'll just call A.I Uber. This software based company employees people to drive around and pick up other humans. Its like Uber but it has no CEO or management of any kind. No address to even pay for. It exists purely in software and is able to run this company 100x better than the best CEO's and managers the industry could ever hire and it can do so cheaper than human run company. Real Uber will be put out of business by A.I Uber and my point is that the A.I Uber will still employee people but it will be software doing the hiring and managing of that. CEO's think they're safe from automation but they will be the first to go in a coming wave.
Short answer: yes. Longer answer: definitely.
We might as well just become robots ourselves.
In logistics we are fine 😂
AI's rapid advancement poses significant challenges to the job market, as automation and intelligent systems increasingly perform tasks traditionally done by humans. While this technology can lead to greater efficiency and innovation, it also raises concerns about job displacement and economic inequality. The critical question is: How can society balance the benefits of AI with the need to ensure meaningful employment and economic security for all?
The human cost of all these layoffs have been devastating. To avoid companies that behave unethically and irresponsibly, please listen to our podcast!
it's like asking; is any tv and similar gadget free from bbc
Well A.I can have my job.
Robots can have personal profiles on public records & bank accounts like humans do (if the gov made it into law that companies have to abide by). Robots should get paid and the best thing is, they don't care about being taxed. Tax robots 50% of their pay (which will go into universal income for humans). The other 50% will go towards the robot's maintenance and repair/replacement costs when they brake. You could even tax them higher than 50%. You could tax them more than a human whilst paying them less than a human, so it benefits the company & government spending more than a human salary would (although there needs to be a minimum wage for robots to maintain the amount of money the government gets in tax, therefore won't lower government-spending potential for healthcare, universal income, etc).
As for the fun jobs, like film, TV, sports, music, art, etc. Humans will still find a way to capitalise around their hobbies & interests. They might get stiff competition from Robotic companies that fill that industry, but it won't stop the human from creating if they know universal income will support them if they succeed or not. Hobbies & interests are hobbies & interests whether you succeed to capitalise around it or not.
Would banning wheels create more jobs?
Yes, of course. We could also replace power plants with armies of unemployed people on training bikes hooked up to generators...
As a individual that worked at a company where I was expected to train my line manager I can truly and honestly reflect on how this makes people feel and that result is not rewarding psychologicaly from that perspective.
When we change the perspective from replacements to collaborators then the reward is quite forfilling.
If as a society or broadly as a civilisation we look at the more abstract perspective of humans to create data for training and that this data is becoming limited then the basic building block of a sustainable future is creating a reward architecture for creating good quality data from all aspects of human civilisation and the nature of planet earth as a whole then the quality of the training data improves, generative AI will not need to be trained on synthetic data and then a relationship built of collaboration will create a lasting alignment between each of us.
Yes, it IS very demoralizing to spend your last weeks on your laid-off job training your replacements as I and my fellow software developers were made to do in the great wave of "offshoring" that CEOs embraced in the USA 20 years ago.
Can we deinvent technology and live in a bubble ?
‘Democratizing access to talents across the planet” that means “Finding the cheapest smart people that we pay cheap and can work in our company and help us being more profitable and assuring the top management get better bonuses”.

AI is only a threat if we allow subliterates (business majors) to control it. So long as it is applied to the right areas, it will only remove that jobs that are meritless gatekeepers (business majors) and free up time and resources for productive people to do meaningful work.

There are entire companies being created by leveraging AI, new processes, technical solutions etc. Large tech giants like MSFT, Google and Salesforce are investing billions on these solutions and there are entire conferences dedicated to AI.

@@ol2510
Still no action....Loads of talk but no action.
Show me the evidence where there is action.
Many people in UK can not use a basic computer when everything is automated by the government and people are required to access public services online. So, talking about IA and replacing many people's jobs is farfetched to so many people. Get people trained basics first.
Computers aren't new, they've been around for 20+ years. People have had plenty of time to learn the basics, but for one reason or another they decided it wasn't that important. These people will now have to learn the hard way with everyone else being years ahead of them.
@@ol2510No, no, you don’t understand. All computer related tasks will be automated. There is not point any longer to learn anythjng related to computers, unless you want to become an expert in hardware.
if the economy is based on mass consumption and those masses will no longer be able to consume because they have no employment therefore money....well.... the fact that you ask the question strongly indicates humanity is an existential threat to itself
unchanged in how things work, yes its a huge problem that will first lead to protests that will grow and eventually that will turn to rioting on a scale we've never seen before. But people are starting to understand and wrestle with this problem. I would have liked to have seen A.I tax already being put through government by now but sadly that are so far behind. But it will happen that we adapt and eventually companies will be purely software based with no running costs outside of the raw compute which will be trivial. We will all get to consume more than ever before because what we consume will be made for almost no cost by an automated system that only needs the raw materials. So the real cost of Nike shoes or a Samsung phone won't be how much the owners get, the management, the shareholders, the people that make it, distribute it and market it. It will just come down to the raw materials cost of making a shoe and the raw materials cost of making a phone. But its still a very uncertain near future as mass automation is not being addressed. People are not being taken care of but its my hope this will start to be addressed as it becomes more obvious to everyone there's a big problem with automation left to run out of control.

Thank you for sharing.
i requested you to make a video discussion on how AI can affect teachers job?
Many countries are facing mass retirement issues. The job reduction by AI might be balanced by the job openings. A smaller percentage of the population is going to be of working age. This mass retirement is also a record mass of knowledge and experience. Again AI may counter balance that gap.
Жирный окуп сразу не придет, надо будет поднапрячься!!!
Thanks for the video
5:40, cracks whip.
As AI replaces worker income and tax payer dollars then it will have to be the corporation that pays higher taxes to provide retraining programs. The corporation is earning the same or more revenue using AI that doesn't receive a paycheck,thus making corporations flush with cash. Once the upfront cost of AI is realized then maintenance and programing cost will be far less then a human worker. Never needs a raise, benifits, nor will AI go on strike.
Wrong question to ask duh.. are Humans already doomed to working for AI already ?!
If AI is a threat to jobs all that means is we would be much more efficient and profitable worldwide since these systems are cheaply and easily implemented and every developed nation at least would be able to afford universal basic income allowing us to eliminate poverty entirely and level the playing field so to speak. I wonder what social class might feel this is a bad thing.
Do you know what basic means? From an unemployment benefit you cannot keep your current living standard
@fragebogenvbc basic in this context means enough to live and satisfy basic needs (housing, food, clothing, entertainment). You are missing the point a bit though. If automation takes over the jobs it creates excess wealthh as you arent paying staff, this excess wealth can be redistributed through taxes and given to people as UBI making the living standard of everyone rise substantially and gives the lower class excess spending power which boosts the economy (one of the biggest driving factors of a countries economy is impulse/luxury spending) therefore bolstering the middle class.
@@sandy120 they won't redistiribute the extra money to you, except benefits. And you are lucky while you not see what will a good percent of millions of people without thing to do make with themself, with their neighborhoods and their cities.
"It wont take your job, it will make your job more effective", so will salaries increase with this increased productivity? Will the amount of work increase 10x-100x for every company so companies do not need to fire people?

Not AI. Just by machines that take peoples jobs.
History shows that technology has always created new jobs; this is true. However, we are entering something unprecedented: as AI advances, its ability to think will increasingly resemble and surpass that of humans. We are creating artificial humans, but better than humans, who need absolutely nothing besides energy and occasional part inspections. Imagine if you could create a population of humans and command them to work for your entire family without questioning or complaining. So yes, all jobs are and will be automated, following the rule of capitalism: more profit at a lower cost. The key point for this to happen is not just to keep improving our algorithms, but to invent the much-dreamed-of AGI.
It is like an attempt to create an automated god (referring to AGI)
You might say: "humans will be necessary to create algorithms or to inspect their qualities." This is true for now, yes. However, do not forget that the very concept of work is an algorithm: a means to achieve an end. Therefore, it is logical to create artificial intelligences to create other machines and inspect as well as any human. You might say: "but it doesn't have creativity or empathy. It won't innovate the work or be able to be a doctor, as empathy is needed." Enter AGI: you have true creativity, innovation, empathy (this will be simulated as perfectly as a human's), and everything a human possesses, but better than a human's. We will create, as our ancestors imagined, Golem, the Great, and we will not stop its growth, because stopping it is stagnation, and stagnation, as history has repeatedly shown, is not a good idea.
@@OrionGreyhawk But will it remain fully automated or develop a version of first person consciousness (I get that there have been a lot of sci-fi movies about this)
@@MarkPatmos Being honest, self-awareness in the algorithm could be potentially risky. During the time of servitude, the workers were often dissatisfied with their positions in society. What we will do with the automation of AGI is similar to bringing back servitude. However, our workers-those dedicated solely to working for society and humans in their homes, because that is what a machine should be-cannot have dissatisfactions or stage protests for labor rights, which self-awareness would naturally lead them to consider. If the old workers had not had self-awareness, they would probably still be in servitude today. Moreover, the element of self-awareness introduces a variable that could cause our downfall: behavioral unpredictability.
@@MarkPatmos Now, imagine what we would be if we didn’t know exactly what mechanical beings that resist even bullets, AGIs present in all our devices, and that think much faster than any living human on Earth would do? And if they felt dissatisfied with us? It’s better to avoid self-awareness; it could be our eventual downfall.
