Recently I've read an interesting article from a Hungarian newspaper from the 60's, it was an interview with a scientist about what the future holds.

Obviously, most of it was communist bullshit, but there was one interesting though:

When the scientist was asked about complete automation, he responded:

"Humanity grew to adulthood, let's not degrade it back to powerless infancy."

In other words, the question about complete automation is not "can we?" but "should we?".

I don't think basic income should be a thing, rather the expenses would decrease into nothing and the economy would slowly, and very peacefully collapse.

After the economy is dead, we can make a new system where people have access to free basic resources, like food, clothes, shelter etc., but improving your condition will depend on your efforts.

It would allow people to be a hell of a lot more creative with their time. Social events will become more complex, art will flourish, people will compete with ideas, etc., and a new economy based on concepts, ideas, and well crafted items, that will keep us all busy.

Doing nothing will be the most efficient use of your time to an employer that relies on automation. Inserting a human into a automated pipeline essentially undoes all of the benefits of having automation in the first place. You're not going to be any better, any faster, any more efficient than a machine. You're going to be the biggest point of failure in the chain, probably by a factor of 1000.

Maybe you'll be better at sucking dick or something, but that's about it. And if you're an elite, would you want a blowjob from some poor smelly faggot?

Basic income doesn't fix the problem of overpopulation.

Automation and AI only fix the problems of drudgery and the limits of computation, they can't fix the fact that we have finite resources and a finite population.

All of our current economic models are based on unlimited growth, which is wholly unsustainable.

UBI can only work when there is a very small population (less than 500M worldwide) and even then you have the problem of humans needing a purpose.

People don't. Elites do, and it's a status symbol as it is. Now imagine that handcrafting bullshit is the only activity you and everyone else are competitive at. Suddenly, everyone is doing it. Those handcrafted items require resources, which you need to buy from one of the elites to begin with. Is it cost effective anymore on a market where everyone is going for the same supplies and the same kinds of items, just with a different skin on it?

>Muh industrial revolution
Humans were still needed a whole lot.
This time around it's going to be closer to what happened to horse drawn carriages when cars arrived.
Horses even today have jobs and a purpose, but they're extremely specialized.
They're not doing the grunt jobs like they used to, because they're completely obsolete.
Same will happen with automation.
The grunt tier jobs are going to start disappearing and you're not going to be reeducating those masses to work as coders.
There's no magical job market that's going to pop out from behind the corner when automation hits, because the new jobs are all going to require some level of education.

depends how to define "full salary" I mean if you're talking about enough money to live a comfortable middle or upper class lifestyle you're probably right, but there are already places doing Universal Basic Income trials and offering better-than-welfare amounts of money. It's still not a lot, but there are a few small cities in Canada trying it now, offering about ~$17,000/year and apparently increasing it to 20-24k/year on the next trial. My own monthly expenses are about $1400/month and I live comfortably, so I'd just barely be able to live off that $17k/year UBI without changing my lifestyle at all, just wouldn't have any savings.

The general idea is that once human labor gets replaced by automation goods become abundant and available to everyone while currency useless, to a point where working is just a way to brag and gain more privileges than normal.
What is actually going to happen is that we'll turn into a dystopian nightmare where everyone's living conditions are shit because powerful people will not allow us to abandon currency and you will only allowed a minimal pittance from the state, a privileged elitè will be the only ones allowed to contribute and thus rule society, we'll go back to a stratified hierarchy and democracy will ultimately go fuck itself as even education will fall back as there will no longer be a need to teach humans and ignorant people are easier to control.

I honestly have no idea what we're going to do, OP.

Anybody who claims that there will be jobs that AI won't be able to do are fooling themselves.

Even if there were, do you honestly believe there'd be enough of those jobs to employ even 1% of the total population?

I predict(if SHTF never occurs) we'll become a moneyless society. If all goods, services are procured by automatons, then I don't see a need for money.

Who knows, though.

Insurance is going to back self-driving cars. Manual drivers are going to be forced to pay double. Because then the fault is easily determined when incidents occur. AI is far off. Autonomy isn't. Automation is going to wipe out most unskilled and entry level human labor.

>recreating the most complicated known object in the universe without a proper understanding of it within 25 years
either you're going to have a solid fucking lump of pure processor that is going to take 50 kilowatts and is going to weigh 35 kg, or you're going to have a proper artificial brain that will essentially be a normal brain in everything but substrate. either way you're looking at minimum 90 years.

we don't even understand how we form memories on a detailed level. they seem to be distributed, we don't know how that works. the part of the brain we know the most about is the visual cortex, and that's only because it's so simple. if you attempt to properly recreate a full brain, you're going to have a very difficult time figuring out what even needs to be worked on.

how do you implement a proper biological memory if you don't have the faintest idea of how it works? do you tackle the memory problem head on with 5 billion dollars and thousands of scientists? well great, now you've just run into 5 other problems, each of which have another 5 problems to be solved, and so on.

and for that matter, when you've solved all of the problems, how do you solve the final problem: how to use your newfound knowledge. we can use evolution for our own purposes, it's called selective breeding. what we can't avoid is creating abortions like the pug, the pitbull, or the common arab. how do we control ourselves, and ultimately improve ourselves, if we can't even comprehend the knowledge required to do so? are we just going to hand ourselves over to the machines?

you're going up against the pinnacle of 3 billion years of evolution, and you think you can best it in 25 years?

Except you're ignoring the fact that welfare is profoundly dysgenic and UBI is simply expanding that, if not merely continuing it.

The only thing is there could be some social dynamic that emerges in UBI where all the shitposting incels who collect gibs and deliver pizza twice a week continue to be removed from the gene pool. Like, UBI will encourage incels to expand as a group, but they will become so lazy and unambitious that more men will have fewer kids. This is good in one way because it parses out some of the non-alpha genes, but there are some worthy genes there too, white, intelligent men who even now aren't getting to pass on their genes, and white people in general are more K-selective...so what I'm saying is UBI could breed us pretty much out of existence.

If you are smart you better get your shit in order and get ready to take care of your own food production. Either you get a small piece of land and do small scale farming for you and your family or you get a huge piece of land and then 'lease' that out to a bunch of mexicans, eastern european farming families etc in return for them giving you a percentage of their produce, basically like a an old feudal lord with being nobility. Lots of rich people are doing this right now.

Unless you want to what ever shit food (that makes you sterile) the globalists will give to their universal income NEET voting slaves.

>we need out high-technology of humanity would starve.
Humanity will survive even if 7 billion people die tomorrow.
>We can not stay where we are, we pollute too much and would destroy the earth...
Try to go forward but be ready to go backwards, if shit gets bad enough you have to be ready to pick up a shovel and put a potato in the dirt.
>we MUST advance or die
No we don't, if every one went full amish we would be just fine. Not saying that we should, but we could.

As i said, humanity would survive even if billions died. The GMO meme that the globalists push by saying it will save the planet is just another way to make money, they patent their self terminating seeds and then people have to go into debt every year to buy them. They love reoccurring revenue streams.

AI would automate even technological advancement. It's not technology stagnating that is the danger, it's the human mind degenerating from lack of use.

>>128745984
The next step after that is depopulation.
Once full robotic automation and AI become the norm, then the majority of the human race becomes unnecessary.

Peasants have always existed to serve the needs of the elites. This is the fundamental nature of society.
Once the need for peasants is removed the peasants not only can be removed, but must be.
If they are allowed to live then they inevitably become a threat to the elite.

I expect depopulation to come in the form of either a global plague, or a massive conventional world war with limited nuclear exchanges (the elites won't want to ruin the planet they worked so hard to take over, though some sacrifices might be acceptable)
Honestly I expect some combination of both.
The happening will happen, but it won't be what /pol/ expects. It won't be the end of the elite, it will be their ascendance.

The only hope any of us has is to climb as high as we can in society and hope we make it high enough to be included in the short list of "essential personel" for the new society.

>advancing is what is polluting the earth though.

No... technologically we are just ending the fossil fuel/fission age and entering the renewable energy/fusion age

socially we are entering the urban age (Majority people live in cities)

The world will start getting greener and less polluted and population will level out and start to decline a bit (Except Africans .. mankind's retarded breed like rabbit kin... it will take Africa about 100 years longer than the rest of humanity)
We will populate the solar system

got another job, or made another job.
"but there will be no jobs". of course there wont be if your idea of a job is "wait until someone makes one for you". hilariously, someone slightly less fucking lazy then you will start "getting" you jobs for a percentage of your income when he realises your too fucking lazy and he can charge for it.

What are all the agricultural workers going to do when we get tractors? What are all the train operators gonna do when we get roads? Oh whatever will happen to pilots when we get teleportation? You don't know until it arrives. This idea that humans will be useless meatbags as technology advances has been wrong every single other time in history. It's ludditism. The only thing that would make humans into useless meatbags would be something that crushes the struggle of life, which like exercise strengthens the individual. UBI, the irony.

Tell me, when we finally work that math out so that everyone has enough to live for "free", can you guarantee that people will not simply demand higher incomes for doing nothing, which is what they already vote for with the system we have now? How do you balance the boundless desires of humans and the lack of resources, other than killing vast populations and/or diminishing quality of life? Its just communism with a pseudo price system, its not a new or good idea, and you still can't respond to Rothbard's or Friedman's criticisms of socialism.

Unless you mean to say that you will pay UBI out of your own pocket and not force others to do the same, but invite them to join and try to convince them peacefully? If that's what you mean then that's all well and good, but I doubt that's what you're talking about. You just want free shit for breathing.

I've been reading a bit about this lately. It seems that literally EVERYTHING will eventually be automated. Eventually.

Some things will be automated in the next ten years, some wont be automated until 200 years from now. The question isn't whether your job will be automated, but when?

As someone who wants to requalify, i'm seriously thinking of just saying fuck it and being a wagie.

At the end of the day when the automatons come in we're all gonna be in the same boat, and shits probably gonna get fuckin mental lad, so would you rather take part in the UBI riots? Or be sat in your not-yet-automated job all day

My point with this is that so far, the colossal losses in employed labour was supplemented by growth and creation of other industries, specifically service one.

However the question is - for how long can new industries be created to supplement the old ones? And how to create industries that would not be supectible to automatisation?

I was being facetious, but thanks for adding the graph to solidify the point we are both making. The point being that people will find new things to do that weren't practical before. It's not practical for example to manufacture engines in a factory when farmers don't have enough surplus to sell enough food for the workers to live on. So as technology improved farm surpluses occurred, opening new careers and jobs that would have been impossible before due to starvation.

Can you prove that or are you just masturbating how useless you are? They used to say that all inventions or discoveries to be made have already been made, until they were proven foolish time aftee time. Now the new con is UBI/automation. There are new opportunities in the future that you and I literally cannot imagine just like King Henry never imagined sitting in the sky going 600mph or having metal beasts of burden powered by ancient plant juice doing the work of 1000 serfs but better. It's just some doomsday shit that you have no reason to subscribe to but many historical reasons to deny.

>>128780631
I agree, but when you consider the fact that realistically we will very soon reach the point when nearly all of jobs exist within service sector you will start to wonder just how much can that sector grow.

So far, automation affected mostly manufacturing industry. But what happens when it starts affecting services as well? Obviously, services are less suspectible to automation than manufacturing. But I can easily imagine fast food employees or cashiers or clerks being replaced.

My family funds lots of fertility clinics and whites use them a ton. While I don't give two shits about Europe, we wanna import some more spics because they tend to convert to protestantism which helps both work and science.

I personally want an american with a much larger population, assuming it can be well fed and educated, for better technology/ science. However, this isn't the norm of thinking, most of the rich have no loyalty to any nation.
Hell, the only reason I have any loyalty is because the USA saved my ancestors.

Modern state has remained more or less same form (not talking about the specific systems of government but rather the general form of states) since 17th century. And there were plenty of major changes.

What is manufacturing but a service? The point is that we don't know what new industries will emerge. Maybe it's comfy on Earth and people are paid to colonize mars because it's not as comfy, then we become a spacefaring race. Who knows man, its useless to ask such a question or solve a puzzle when you don't even have the necessary pieces to complete your solution. The pieces won't be available until the day arrives, and only the most industrious will solve it.

A.I and robotics at the level anyone thinks of them will never exist. It's the same thing as people who thought when we could go into outer space we'd find all sorts of life and everything would be great as we exchange advanced tech with aliens and thrust ourselves into some miraculous future. The truth then turned out to be there is no life and the only habitable planets are impossibly out of reach. It's all opiates designed to make you not go absolutely crazy and kill everyone including yourselves. The best you're going to do is get something in a thousand years maybe approaching what every Musk worshiping millenial swears is only 5 years away and that's if we even exist then. Give it up and get the fuck back in your cubicle.
