Robots are not the problem, humans are.
Doctors, teachers, coders, pets, and CEOs, all will be replaced by robots. What’s so sad about that?
Technology is created to serve humanity in a better way, and not to make sure that people keep their jobs. We should not pause on making technological progress just because we are afraid that someone might lose their job.
Jobs were never secure anyway.
Around 200 years ago, over 80% of the employable population in the US was in agricultural work, and now that number has been reduced to well under 5%. Technology has replaced jobs, and did everything faster and much more efficiently than humans, reduced most of the drudgery and danger of manual labor.
Do you think all those farmers went unemployed?
If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with technology driving ever-increasing inequality.
Three of the world's 10 largest employers are now replacing their workers with robots
No one should ever work. Work is the source of nearly all the misery in the world. Almost any evil you'd care to name comes from working or from living in a world designed for work. In order to stop suffering, we have to stop working
“Work Is Worship” is no longer true and our addiction to work is pathological. Its time to look at success, life and career differently
