That's quite optimistic of you. Physical jobs will be altered and tailored to make up for the current inadequacies of robots and whatnot. Think about how houses and other buildings are more and more extensively pre-fabricated nowadays. What workers that are employed to build houses barely need to know as much of the technicalities involved in building a house as they did in the past.

And jobs that involve dealing with people, jobs that you think can't be done by robots... you're wrong. It'll just take longer as they wait for people to get used to such robots in society. Just like how an ipad in McDonalds, or an automated customer service system on the phone, are obviously less versatile than a human being, when we get some sort of robot nurses or whatever, and they're less versatile and capable than a human, people will be resigned to the fact that robots taking these roles is the thing that 's happening now. They'll be frustrated, yet still accommodating of their inadequacies.

We barely care about quality craftsmanship nowadays. Soon we'll barely care about quality service.

Teachers are probably going to get the axe soon. With the internet and cheap video hosting one could easily provide 10 different explanations for the same concept effortlessly and one good lesson plan could be taught to all the kids simultaneously on their own schedule. That just leaves any questions and homework that the kids would have which could be handled over the internet and any practical courses such as labs. The practical shit probably would still need an actual facility.

Other than the kids becoming soulless husks because they lack meaningful human interaction with their peers and adults we would save massive amounts of money. Shit, we could probably all afford to retire in nice homes with all the money we save with free healthcare.

>>138756996
Youre not really taking into consideration the cost of doing business though. For example everyone loves a good small(er) time burger joint, but a burger joint won't be able to afford a robot making machine when they start up. Or trucking for example, yes a big company like Pepsi would be able to afford a self-driving truck that costs millions, and maybe they will make back money on it many years after, but a lot of trucking is done with many small-time companies who will never be able to afford a million dollar self-driving truck.

Well no shit, your state is affluent. I don't live in an affluent area. It's recently been flooded with what I think are Somalians, and there's been a ton of new, tiny houses built here to accommodate them, crammed into whatever space is left, all these ugly, bland little prefab Ikea houses.

Health sector especially with biotech is going to be decimated jobwise.

Already is, dispensing nurses already replaced to much higher reliability level. 90% of nursing can easily be automated plus machines dont fuck up and they dont have period shouting days..

Radiologists gone, all diagnosis will be machine made, much better success rate. Doctors will become therapists and recovery support clerks

Oh and carers and health industry automation will be pursued with great vigour as the savings will directly affect health insurance premiums and will be encouraged to automate asap by all.

>commie thinks robots will give him a utopia
Until we invent much faster computers, AI and much better robotics humans are superior in every way.
We still have at least one hundred years till we even have to consider the possibility of robots in the workforce that can do all the things humans can do.
Robots are so primitive nowadays they can do at most factory jobs without human aid and having a human their provides a much better layer of security as they are much more adaptable, can survive is there is no electricity and can do other jobs they might have to do other than those they are assigned.
WE ARE FINE.

Those who think robots will replace every last job are mistaken.

Functional AI is very far off. Several decades away. Until then, it would be necessary to program a robot for every individual job.


So only jobs where there is some kind of economy of scale will be replaced by robots.


If you're flipping burgers at McDonalds you'll be replaced. But if you're making Nanna's Secret Recipe at the local corner store it is not economically sensible to replace you with a robot.


Plumbers will not be replaced as each home has unique requirements. While trucking will become a robotics domain, maintaining the warehouse for a small trader will not be worth replacing.


On the other hand, major employers such as the military, the public service, hospitals etc are fucked as they are big enough that automating even minor roles becomes sensible.


Others are correct by pointing out the advantage of moving to physical jobs, but I'd add move to small scale industries as well.


Also, strippers and prostitutes won't be robots.

But they will take your job, we will still have humans on the shops ofc but it will just be a skeleton crew. Anything else then daily maintenance can be done by crews that are hired to work when the ship is in port.

If you want job security you need to find a dynamic job will be extremely hard to get a robot to do. Are you an overpaid desk jockey that does the same shit every day? Chances are that you will be fucked by our robot overlords. Dynamic jobs that aren't to well paid and not to risky will be automated last. These guys will probably have lots of work to do, unless some one invents a working fusion reactor or something like that.

Perhaps, you don't know what kind of tech the military has hidden away in underground bunkers. For all we know they might all ready have quantum computers and AI, i doubt it but there are literally trillions of dollars missing from the US defense budget and it went somewhere. Doctors and lawyers are being replaced to since computers are getting better and better at suggesting subscriptions and offering legal advice. I still think the safest bet would be something where you use both your hands and your brain in a non repetitive way.

Look at this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVWayhNpHr0

In materials science, machine learning has served as a tool for a few computational materials scientists to use. It's been a considerable disappointment with no major successes so far, but one or two companies like the Toyota Research Institute are still trying to make it work. In the end, I think it'll be quantum computing and first principle calculations (designing materials from the atomic level up) that will reign supreme 100 years from now. Machine learning in the end is just advanced statistics and fails to explain the reasons behind predictions.

every job that is repetitive will be replaced regardless of pay grade. Its all about economics, burger flippers will be replaced because there is a ton of them and a machine that does their job will sell like ice cream in the desert. If you got a low paying job that is just a simple but not as widespread you are a bit better of since no one is going to design and build a robot if there isn't a market for them.

So the more special snowflake and dynamic your job is the better of you are.

>>138774311
I'd say accounting is safe for this century. Machine learning is very good at pattern recognition but reasoning and creativity aren't just nonexistent; researchers don't even have the faintest clue as to how to begin creating these structures mathematically. I suppose some new algorithms could be gleaned from computational neuroscience but I highly doubt any important insights will be revealed until the turn of the century. The problem is while we have the computing power to simulate the human brain, it's impossible to deconstruct billions of neutrons. The only successful simulation was a ducking nematode with less than 1000 neurons.

I think it'll take a hit for sure but upper level accounting jobs require a good deal of creativity that machines simply don't possess. There are also too many variables at play when doing a merger for example that machine learning cant handle as all such variables would have to be reduced to a form of clean data and a massive amount would have to be available for it to work. Additionally, any jobs that involve interacting with clients will be safe.

lol, people will DEMAND that pilots are removed from the planes when the next highjacking happens or when the next idiot pilot suicides into a mountain. Just like they will demand that drivers are removed from the road when that technology is mature and a few more trucks of peace have happened. You can't highjack a plane if there isn't any cockpit and you can't drive car into a crowd if you literally can't drive the car.

Thats not to mention the submarket you get with having trucks with potentially a million dollars worth of goods barreling down the highway with no human to secure them, the first company that tries this will be plagued with people (probably like myself) trying to rob them on the highway.

We are all ready seeing automated cars and its even easier to automate planes. Planes don't have to deal with animals, idiot kids or retarded drivers running into their path. All they have to do is fly from point a to point b within a predesignated path and there is literally nothing else then air in their way. They basically fly themselves all ready.

Well if all the cars are self driving cars that communicate with each other it becomes a lot easier. And if we get flying cars it will be really easy since they don't have to deal with anything else then other flying cars and the occasional bird. They don't need to fly higher then a 100 feet.

True, there would be a lot of legal issues and people complaining about every one flying around being a potential mini 9/11.

But i don't think safety is that much of a problem. We all ready see up scaled drones with lots of small engines that can fly humans so all you need to do is make a flying car with like 100 small engines that only need 80 of them to fly and as soon as a few of them craps out the car automatically lands and refuses to fly anymore.
