Artificial intelligence expert's DIRE warning to white-collar workers - 'You should be worried!' 

Based

Have you seen the video of a robot plastering a wall

no, guess what they'll be working on after they fully automate all of the white collar stuff? they'll be gunning straight for the blue collar work next.

You won't be just fine AT ALL 🤣 There is AI that can already do advanced surgery, robots that can lift and carry much more weight than any man can. I even had an AI arm make me a mixed drink at a VR experience at the end of last year, no human being needed at all - I paid for the drink contactless on a tablet and then the robot arm got to making my drink and placed it down for me neatly in the small collection area. We already have less sophisticated robots than can vacuum our home floors so it really is only a matter of time before a range of tasks and jobs done by human hands will be replicated by robots. In Japan they have robots in supermarkets that stock the shelves which are controlled REMOTELY by people at home... This could literally be a 16 year old kid who is happy to work from home and be paid less than some 30-50 year old who doesn't have the IQ for much more jobs than stacking shelves at Tesco. When we think of HGVs currently driven by men, a large chunk of these will be replaced by simply an army of drones that dispatch items individually to the destination, stopping at one or more points along the way to recharge - but because they're aerial they can avoid roads, and traffic and will never need to contend with a human driver needing a toilet break, to have his lunch or to sleep at night... Lightweight items will be absolutely completely covered by drone delivery in the next 10 years, both products from manufacturer/source to retail and direct to consumer. This will leave only the larger and heavier objects that may require a matrix of drones to work together and/or a heavier duty drone that can carry a larger load. That's only a handful of tasks we're talking about. 70-90% of jobs will likely end up being replaced by AI or robots, and it will not distinguish been white or blue collar when it really starts gaining significant traction.

​@@BryJovi17Have you any idea how much cargo is shipped, flown, and moved in trucks around the world every day? Drones? 😂😂 Yes, maybe there will be drones dropping off the small local packages, but there's MILLIONS of tons being moved between continents. Your VR coffee idea is fantasy too. Have you ever been to Spain or Italy? Have you any idea what the café scene is like in these countries? A robot arm won't be taking over any time soon. It's all well and good to imagine some scifi future where robots are doing all the work, but when when break it all down and think these scenarios through practically VS the current robot technology available it's fantasy.

Even if that was true, the economy is a woven fabric, the more people are unemployed, the more tradespeople suffer too unfortunately.

Jeremy Clarkson; "oh no, anyway." I love top gear by the way.

Good they do absolutely nothing

Exactly! 👍 🎉🎉🎉😂

Well more than that besides less decent jobs will mean most of us in equal squalor not affording life with a higher tax burden.

@@bowjana8128 good, for nothing.

Same thought.

They already have nurse 'robots' of humanoid form in Japan because they are at the front of the pack when it comes to a growing ageing population which is leading to an inverse population pyramid (i.e. majority of the population are old/retired). Japan has not had enough children over the last few decades to sufficiently achieve the replacement birth rate and so there are now not enough people of working age able to support the size of the elderly population. This is only going to get worse over the next 20-40 years. Similarly this is going to inevitably happen in many western countries where the replacement birth rate is not being met - USA, UK, Italy, Greece, etc.

Exactly. The bank of Spain just released a report saying the country needs 25 MILLION immigrant workers to prop up the pensions due to the ageing population.

T'would be a bland EXISTENCE for humanity if it was like that and then an asteroid shows up or a supermassive blackhole tears our solar system apart

​@@BarghestOne Yeah, man.

we have an awful lot of unskilled immigration...I think not!

It’s funny how UK commies / Bolesheviks never go to communist countries for a holiday.

Correct

Military or other creative technologies or research basically how to advance the human race maybe space exploration.

there should hae been UBI way before AI

Wooden?

Was that 'Al' or 'AI'? lowercase 'l' (L) and uppercase 'I' (i) look the same with this font. Non-serif fonts cause some ambiguity.

Wrong - AI has been trained to have leftist opinions!

@Anti Which is why the majority of generation x retirees and below will be much poorer than their older counterparts

@@AntiAntiSepticUK Lee'chs? What is that?

@@DMSProduktions Short for Leprechauns. Hope this helps.

@@osric1730 Nah, idts, I think he meant LEECHES, but failed English at school!

@Commissioner Gordon I agree with you as per my last sentence I didn’t like working from home so I quit but it was perfect timing for me so it all worked out. I have a former colleague 50 plus and he has said he has all but given up trying to find employment now and believes employers are biased against his age despite this being illegal according to the Equalities Act 2010.

keep coping

define "good". Good is in the eye of the employer.

@@phoenixrising4995 Well most managers do absolutely nothing except send emails

That depends on the work.

OK Boomer!

@@martynblackburn9632 Do BETTER then! 🤡

Most old peoples can barely use a fucking iPhone. This "useles generation" are almost completely responsible for building the future we are heading towards.

Do you have a link for this one?

@@mikey1584mf Sent you a reply did you get it?

Correct, bots work for FREE, so pay NO tax!

Stop thinking things through and making sense! We're talking about the latest thing!

The rich bosses don't want taxes period. So, slavery? Death?

No, humans - who may or may not like you - are taking over using machines with superior intellectual capabilities. Don't think it like automation, because that's really what we've already had since computers were invented. Think of it like this... There are two human accountants, Jill and Jessica, in your company, manually doing the accounts, using nothing more than a pencil, paper and obviously a ruler to draw straight lines, like in the old days. Jill has a calculator. Jessica does not have a calculator. Which worker will be the most productive? That's literally how it works. AI simply just cognises hard to comprehend concepts, the same way a calculator cognises hard to comprehend calculations. The automation aspect is not related to AI, as the automation has always existed, just without the ability to cognise hard to comprehend concepts.

So not Islam then?

@@martynblackburn9632 Machines will be EASIER to shut down!

I'd rather be taken over by AI than islam.

@@martynblackburn9632Calm down, I was simply having some fun, it's a quote from Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines!

Thats something an AI WOULD SAY SOUNDIN SUS -_-

AI self promotion! Time to PULL the plug!

AND ROMEO

I do not think will get that high. It just that middle class jobs will disappear. Robots have fix cost so if the job is not high paying employers are not in a rush to replace workers. that why it hit white collar workers more because they just replace with software.

2000 years and still waiting.

@@martynblackburn9632 1 day is 1000 years for God, READ the Bible man❗️

LOL! That boat has sailed a LONG time ago! TIME to move on!

he better hurry up then i need a Poo

Technology can't be supressed!

@@a-walpatches6460 LOL! It's been suppressed for centuries!

@@DMSProduktions Not coding technologies, AI is just code. How can that possibly be stopped?

@@a-walpatches6460 Well maybe it can't, but CAN be! You forgot what happened with V'GER?

And the social credit system that comes with it to make us obey. We will have no power. Technofeudism will be upon us

How so?

@@mikey1584mf Key word missing: Sentient.

I'm guessing you've never used an AI software or spoken to an AI chat bot? Did you also not realise that every Google search, message you send on popular instant messaging apps and things you post on social media are all being monitored and fed into a giant AI network run by the biggest tech companies? The algorithms are absorbing billions upon billions of searches and conversations so that this can be harvested into a gigantic library of human knowledge and opinions which, if the software becomes advanced enough, could be combined with to create an incomprehensible intelligence that we will not be able to control.

This was an interesting discussion, go away kid.

That's part of the fun. Its the news equivalent of queuing up to see the Elephant Man. As a bonus you then get to look at the Stockholm Syndrome in the comments section as all the Turkeys loudly clamour for Christmas and bemoan the fact that Christmas would be just fine if it wasn't for all the sprouts coming over here and hogging the gravy, blissfully unaware that the sprouts have very little to do with the fact they're getting plucked stuffed and carved up for dinner regardless.

Only people who need psychiatric help would be here, and make such comments.

Just like this thread!
