From a pure jobs perspective this video is spot on. Still I can’t help but think that biotechnology, materials science, nanotechnology and atomically precise manufacturing belong on your list

Great video, Futurology! I'm always hyped to see whatever new video! Can't wait for the one on UBI :)

Similar to the example where the cavemen drive 200 Mammoths off a cliff and starve themselves as a result, I can easily foresee a future where companies realize they've driven too many people out of the workforce, leading to a sharp decline in profits as there simply aren't enough people with disposable incomes to consume the products. We might eventually discover an artificial ceiling to high-level automation, where companies intentionally scale back how efficient their production processes are in order to keep a certain percentage of the population employed. I can picture it similar to a Laffer Curve, where after a certain level of automation is reached, profits begin to go down.

One of the best videos in about automation I’ve watched. Hope you are doing well and working on the next one!

Best videos out there on these topics. Really appreciated!

Automation is inevitable and necessary to keep up with the demand for goods. It is becoming harder and harder to find people willing to do the mundane tasks of assembly. We need regulation to force corporations to pay for the societal externalities of their creative destruction. This is not a technology problem, it's a governance one.

I’d really like a future that gives more financial security compared to work opportunities. As in, concepts like UBI. It would help a lot with mental health for a lot of people while also giving them the space/time to grow their own skills to make extra cash. That’s a future i’d love to see! :) Great vid

Something that would solve a lot of this would be abolishing the minimum wage since it would make it easier to find jobs and employ people at a price that is more economical than having to pay for automated services. Would also help in introducing new people into the work force and give them experience. But yeah the education system is something that really needs an over haul. Maybe automation could help in that area as well.

@@blackjoker2345 Yes well that happens in all facets of American society where contracts are awarded to companies who regularly inflate the price tags to get more profit out of the public funds to build weapons, transportation, buildings, and other vital infrastructure. I would say that the US military is behind Russia with its largely state-subsidized missile program. The rocket engine industry in the US was largely nonexistent until recently when private companies like SpaceX were able to stay above water to supply NASA as before it was the Russian state-subsidized rocket industry. While maximum profit is exacted from the American public to build and run the war machine, that doesn't mean that it is behind the civilian sector. One example of this is the 5g radar technology. Generally, the military required much more powerful electronics then before much of the new technology we see now had been conceived of. It was first implemented on the radar of the F22 in the mid 90's. Active electronic scanning is the idea behind the microwave antennas that are being put up for the 5g infrastructure since they have a much higher bandwidth to support more demanding devices like automated cars which are essentially uplinked to a network not different from what the military has done a while ago for IFF on the battlefield. So I would have to disagree with you and say that the military takes the majority of the intellectual capability from universities and employs them for top secret weaponry to maintain supremacy, but yes it is done much more costly than it would otherwise need to be I will agree with you there.

@@jamesbra4410 I see your point, but the few technologies that are implemented from the civilian sector are localized to a minority of bases. Said bases being mostly used to test R&D or as something to show off as super advanced to American civilian sector. The vast majority of tech available to the US military hasn't changed since the 1980's. This is due to a mixture of having a large back-log of equipment the military refuses to update and modernize for cost reasons. The f22 example you gave is a great example because production of F22 model aircraft has been halted Entirely to cut costs and it's become so expensive to re-open the program that they instead chose to open the f-35 program. The f-35, I might add, has so far failed to meet the mission requirements set out for it since it's initial inception. The issues with the American military industrial complex are much worse than much of the public is aware of. I'm very convinced that if we went to war with a country that was an actual military threat(like china or russia) rather than a smaller country like we currently do, then we'd collapse our own military And economy(granted their economy would also likely collapse because every single "Super power" has built their economy on a house of cards for some reason).

I would think the more automation there is the better things would turn out in the long run. Things would get less expensive because employers wouldn't have to be paying other people thus not needing to raise prices to raise prices as much to make a profit. All they would need to do is pay for the initial machine cost and electricity. Thus leading to cheaper products over all for everyone

Most of the progress seems to be software, rather than hardware. It's great to say ai is there but if it has nothing to plug into then where is the progress. Robotics is lacking innovation or funding. Take a chickens foot or humans foot. It has a sort of self balancing structure that merges with the surface it walks on. Yet all robots seem to have rigid feet. Why is robotics not merging with 3d printing to create artificial human shaped bones. The human foot and chickens foot should be copied exactly. Why not copy the entire chickens bone structure and make a robot that can walk with less exact computation. Simply the structure gives balance and the ai needs to do less to compute movements that don't result in falling over. Like when I place my foot on the floor it influences the position of the rest of my leg, almost like auto balance. Ligaments to limit movements work with bones.

Because when it comes to creating robotics making them human or even animal shaped is kind of a waste. What is more efficient is just make a machine designed to do a specific job. Like for instance instead of creating an entire humanoid robot to wash dishes for you people just made a dishwasher instead. Instead of a humanoid robot to drive you around they just turned the car itself into the robot that drives you around. Humanoid form isn't exactly the best when it comes to doing most task.

@@GiRR007 it is the best because it can do multi tasks. If I had a robot that did the dishes, cleaned the house, and drove the car and could chat then that is better value. Since we can 3D print bone shapes why not try to replicate a robot based of a human skeleton, from toes to head. Pick someone with good balance because structure matters. Ai could train to use the body, even with 3d printing modelling the body in vr for training might be easier. Single function robots also can be useful in teams especially in a factory, they are more machine than robot though. Robots move around an environment. Ai Cars are driving robots that control a machine. A body is a machine. Make it work !

I home tory lanez baby

It is absolutely inevitable that robots and AI will be able to substitute any human work in the foreseeable future. Qualification is therefore useless because, for example, photonic computers will be almost infinitely superior "cognitively". Robots will also maintain, improve and reproduce themselves. Even an organic fusion of man and machine is inefficient compared to this. The game is over. Politicians must recognize the inevitability and fundamentally adapt the economic and social system to it, if the agenda is not to exterminate as many as possible. There is too much thinking in systemic imperatives in the video. The focus on economic individual income and human value creation is completely outdated. There will simply be no more scarcity and no need to do low-quality, i.e. human, work. For fun, perhaps, yes. The state will provide goods or you simply print them for free in a 3D printer. The increase in structurally induced unemployment is also a challenge in terms of public order and security. Probably the change is too fast and the primitive human mind cannot adequately anticipate it to the point where much smarter machines take over. As Elon Musk said, it's going to be really weird.

Technically work is a curse… a lot of people work their whole lives to achieve nothing, nothing except the acquisition of capital which they can use to survive. But their work is meaningless and ultimately completely useless. Of course having no work is equally as meaningless but it’s less effort. I mean it’ll be a massive problem if we ever do get to the point where nobody has to work to survive. You’re right, we’d probably end up like the people in Wall-e. But at the same time, it’s a preferable problem to have than our current problem of “work or else you die.” Or “do something meaningless that you hate because otherwise you’ll starve.” Or “you want to be an artist? You want to go into social studies? Good luck! You’ll never be over the poverty line or pay back your loans.” People should be free to pursue what they want. If we end up doing nothing, that’s squarely on our shoulders as individuals in a world that’s automated and provides for everyone. It won’t be society’s problem, it’ll be ours. It’s a problem we’ll need to solve for sure! It’ll wreck our mental and perhaps even our physical health. But it’ll still be a better problem to have. And the fact that there is a massive problem to solve will give us meaning. That’s what work is supposed to be after all. It’s supposed to be solving problems or at least maintaining a structure that prevents more problems from arising or that solves problems. And that is what progress is, replacing old problems with better ones. Replacing homelessness and starvation with having to find meaning and something to be passionate about. Both are problems, but one is clearly better than the other.
