la maggior parte di noi non parla italiano :D
In my country, the robot thing is actually going to be a major problem

Io parlo anche italiano, non ti preoccupare hehe

I thought you were Romanian:)
I understand Italian but don't speak it.

I learned italian because my parents immigrated there when I was a child. I don't remember much of it though.

 

[couldntthinkofaname]

Lo sarà seriamente...

In big cities perhaps, in small towns they still do

 

[Slacker]

there are still supermarkets in small towns?

 

[Slacker]

hope everything becomes automated so I can just chill...

Ha... this is partly why I wanted to major in computer science/software engineering. Someone's gotta build the robots, right? ...Unless we end up getting to the point where the robots build themselves, in which case I'm fucked as always.

I'm a wage slave with no future.

 

[samhelloall9]

I can add it to my mental list of reasons whenever i have self-doubt, ha. It's something I've thought about for a while now. A lot of jobs could easily be done even now by machines...depends how long trade unions or sympathetic consumers can hold out i guess. Oh well. Cheers!

>sympathetic
>consumer

Pick one and only one.

I can't even do that because I'm dumb and my parents can't pay my university

Automatization and Artificial Intelligence will replace a lots of jobs, but some new ones will be created, too. Governments are planning to implement the "Universal basic income" because of the lack of employment that there will be in the future.

 

[Slayer]

I still think that CTB is the only realistic solution for this problem.

 

[Slacker]

Exoskeletons to lift more and work harder
Brainenhancement via chemicals and elektrode-implants to get smarter

Becoming a Cyborg

And building your own work and sex slave robots to build up an imperium and destroy all meatbags

If we want to fight the AI we could just write a virus called "existential crisis" and upload it

there's actually an anime based on this, called ergo proxy, pretty good

[throwaway123]

so we'll all get UBI (Universal Basic Income) and then we get to buy Nembutal with our monthly income and die.

sounds nice

 

[Volatile]

That's good. That means Universal Basic Income!

 

[CRM]

Maybe I'm just pessimistic, but I don't think UBI will be a thing. The rich will just pocket the money they saved on labor and poverty will go up.

 

[Slacker]

but I don't think UBI will be a thing.

The problem I see with this is Inflation. If everyone gets 1000 Euros right now for nothing the money would lose its worth rapidly.
