We're gonna reach a point where machines have replaced humans in almost all jobs.
At this point 95% of the population will be unemployed and starving, the machines will stand still, because nobody earns money to afford consuming what they're producing, and the rich who run it all struggle to pay for the machines because nobody is buying their products.
This is our future.

>>38158861
Thinking about this is disconcerting because our society is not ready ideologically for this kind of technology. We still fall for the ''bootstraps'' meme.
>>38158882
The rich will have no reason to not kill us off.
Yup. It's just yet another step in turning every western male into a highly replaceable and disposable cog with not much to live for. Your job will be taken away. Marriage will be practically taken away as an option since divorce court will be heavily skewed in women's favor, and this new age of casual sex has numbed women to real lasting relationships. Your countries will be taken away what with all the immigration from the non-western world into the western world. The average joe will have nothing.
Robots can't make memes though

I bet we'll still have dumbass talking about how the working class is just uncreative and the free market is human nature.
>>38158861
Wrong. It's all a sham. You grow up thinking that all these machines are high tech and complicated, but when you finally open up a radar gun, all you see is a metal cone wired to a circuit
>>38159263
False equivalency. Also, who said more complicated equals better?
>>38159312
This is a terrible feel anon. Fuck
>>38158861
Yes, greater options in the automobile industry. You can build your own car with an assisted autocad and have it driven to you at an overall cheaper price, with better pay to the serviceman.

There will be UBI, their lives(owners) or ours(common) depends on it. But that gauntlet is already being test thrown. People will just allocate their lives, same as always; except now it's because of robots.
>>38158927
No we don't the powers that be just don't care about a bunch of degenerates enough to tax the machines to pay for a basic minimum income. They had to work for it, and they like to see others go through what they had to also, there is that.

Thanks for putting that into perspective guys.

"Oh, God. A-And I still won't have a job"
Terminators when?
Just have them kill the whole human population already and end this shit.
>>38159229
>"past examples of socialism werent real socialism so it will be better this time XD =P"
this martin ford hypothesis always struck me as dumb. why would you assume that we will always and forever be a society based on humans as the end consumers of goods? as long as one person has enough capital, he can vertically integrate the entire line of production, cut out the human consumer, and simply harvest resources for the maintenence and growth of his robot army throughout the universe.

>Terminators when?
lovely trips and an even more lovely question
in the 2030's ai will become increasingly eerie and human like
infact in the 2030's the most advance ai will reach human level, by late 2030's
in 2045 we will reach a point where the advancement of ai will be so powerful it basically goes straight up compared to the rest of the chart. this is the singularity which everyone is talking about

I wish I could have this conversation with someone, but I've noticed all intelligence and invention points toward a truly socialist ideal.
>the internet
Everyone is equal. Information is equally accessible. Nobody is an academic elite, or a blue collar plebeian.
>Automation of work
There is no need to work, the machines have it covered. They are cheaper than paying for a living person. They don't need breaks or time off. Thus, in essence, giving humans time to pursue their own spiritual exploration
However, this is coupled with capitalism, which tries to do away with the equality of the internet through net neutrality, and like you said, the automation of the production line leads to people being unable to afford to house or feed themselves.
I really think the only logical future is a socialist one. Capitalism and conservative ideologies are stuck in the neanderthal age.
>>38158861
Hopefully not in my lifetime
Or at least after I retire in like 45 years
>>38160394
Fall for the boostraps meme. No one actually believes that shit Mr. R. Comprehension.
>>38161055
let's hope it just annihilates all human life so that this new great depression thing ends before it even happens.
>>38161056
>Everyone is equal. Information is equally accessible. Nobody is an academic elite, or a blue collar plebeian.
This is post scarcity, but of information. It can probably be achieved for other things like housing, food, transportation, etc.

Such faggot. Wow.
>>38158861
No, because the rich will just control everything and everyone will depend on them and their machines. They'll use people for whatever they want, like war and sex slavery.
>>38162365
Not him but the chart shows exponential growth.
>>38162787
So therefore the only logical step is to kill the rich and seize the means of production for ourselves.
congratulations you just summed up marx's critique of capitalism in 2 sentences.
full automation will either be hell on earth where our kids get stabbed on the way to school or a literal star trek society. fully automated luxury communism is the only way we can chill with captain kirk
but your too stupid and your heads too filled with "communism is when everyone makes exactly the same amount of money and janitors become doctors/communism killed 1000 zillion quadrillion people" propoganda to realize that. we have nothing but full blown anarcho-capitalist somalia tier living in our future if we don't wakeup
