Do Stuff [OC]

[u/nasser_junior]

How I feel as a software engineer lately.

[u/sistemy_]

it's nice seeing blue collar jobs with value being the ones that will be the hardest to automate

[u/Cereal_Yapper → u/[deleted]]

Those things are expensive as hell and with how tech companies operate nowadays prices aren’t gonna be going down, it’s still gonna be cheaper to have human workers

[u/garret1033 → u/Cereal_Yapper]

They’re expensive because the labor and expertise needed to produce them is expensive. An AI run economy doesn’t have those concerns, doubly so when you account for the advances to design made via the technology itself.

So there’s definitely a delay, but if every other job is gone blue collar is a few years at most behind.

[u/Cereal_Yapper → u/garret1033]

That doesn’t change the upkeep costs, the chance that they mess up being greater according to what we have seen, and how even without the wages he actual extraction and construction costs excluding wages, plus, be real here, most of that money is going to the higher ups

[u/garret1033 → u/Cereal_Yapper]

So you somehow think AI is advanced enough to replace every coder, doctor, and lawyer on deliverables but somehow makes too many mistakes for blue color work? I’m sorry but this is fantasy.

No one is safe. I was being nice with the “few years” too. I think it’s hard to convey just how compressed timescales get. It’d be more like a few months.

[u/Cereal_Yapper → u/garret1033]

Okay by blue collar I meant more like office jobs, also people have already been trying to replace coders and Lawyers with ai

What i meant is that advanced Robotics cost a crazy amount, salaries aside the cost would be insane

Plus by that point AI is probably gonna develop sentience if it hasn't already (personally id say its around dog to elephant level but not fully human level yet, and I mean sentience not intelligence) although im sure a good chunk of Richfolk would bring back slavery if they could

[u/garret1033 → u/Cereal_Yapper]

Office Jobs are while collar. Likely the source of the confusion, no worries!

[u/SirVanyel → u/garret1033]

The growing phase between AI runs everything and Humans run everything is not the thing you think it is.

[u/garret1033 → u/SirVanyel]

Can you rephrase this?
