That's because the reality hasn't actually changed. Only now we want to pretend we don't risk ww3 by poking Russian when arming Ukrainians. Think about it if you're kid gets killed in combat do you really make the distinction between a fighter plan provided skirting law or a straght up ally of your enemy. We arm Ukraine knowing they will use it to kill Russians and then act like we aren't provoking war. It didn't work on Japan in ww2.... not going to work this time. The best we can hope for is not getting a cyber equivalent of pearl harbor. If anyone understood how vulnerable both our economy and infrastructure is they wouldn't be poking Russia. Putin is old. The idea that we can't back down is stupid. He is old enough we don't have to deal with him much longer if we just delay ww3.

I'm gonna defer to Stephen Hawking on this: "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." The only reason automation is scary is because we've decided that if you don't have a job, you don't get to participate in society. _We don't actually have to do that._
And because even though productivity constantly rises, we still insist on 40 hours week as a full time job. Cut every job down to 20 hours with the same pay, eliminate jobs that just exist because they were artificially created, lean full on automation and we'd be better off as a society. Fewer hours worked means even more productivity (because you're fresh, you can concentrate, you don't check social media every 5min), it means being healthier and having fewer sick days, it means spending more time with your kids helping them into becoming better people.
Hero of the Beach Wouldn’t automation strengthen the evolution of an oligarchical socialism where the citizens lose all control to corporations and are treated like children?
James Ortiz isn’t that capitalism already.

In addition to automation the people who keep saying that other countries are "stealing" jobs never take into account that the businesses in their own borders actively choose to move production out of country due to contempt for the expense of hiring locals, their native country's own laws concerning worker pay and/or treatment, inherent contempt for workers as an expense to be managed that takes away from a profit margin, and above all else simply to get out of paying their taxes by moving money around.
John, Andrew Yang goes into depth about this exact topic. I know other media think he is simply a joke, but I think while unsustainable in our current era, his ideas are far before their time. I think your program could give him a just and balanced investigative report. Instead of how both sides of the mainstream media fear him and label him a crackpot.
It's simply the nature of a free global market. When competition can come from anywhere in the world, the best, cheapest products win with consumers, and the cheapest labor allows the companies who make them to succeed and grow. Location is no longer an issue, as goods and talent can be sourced and moved from anywhere. It's a mistake to think of this as anyone's "fault," it is simply the world we live in.
@@danielshults5243 The 'fault' implied here is by inherently bigoted people who ignore this very obvious aspect of the changing job market and convince an entire voter base that the problem is solely caused predominantly by one outside country and then stirs up hatred for people from that country, until eventually the president is shutting down the government and declaring a national emergency in order to force funding for a wall across the southern border.

Teller jobs have increased, but teller jobs now pay substantially less than they did in 1980. We need to consider standard of living and societal losses as much as monetary losses. This is about more than just money
Also, the problem is, these automatizations are taking jobs of well...average joe. If Joe pulls a lever every day for the past 20 years and you remove the lever, what he will do? The only thing he knew is to pull a lever. Yes, automatization is creating jobs, but these jobs are for new generations or middle-upper class (coding, designing etc). What happens with working class or old people? Especially with absolutely horrible safety nets.
Do they actually make less or are they making the same, as the cost of living continually rises? This is how wage stagnation works. And it's interesting that you note the 80's because that's when the neoliberal program of wage stagnation and corporate welfare really got into high gear.
I'd be honored if some fellow John Oliver fans who appreciate 80s power ballads would check out my acoustic piano & vocal performances of AGAINST ALL ODDS by Phil Collins, EYE OF THE TIGER by Survivor, and PURPLE RAIN by Prince on my YT channel in tribute to the legends.

NoName DrumGuy I'm not going to debate the merits of anyone's music. But let's start off by saying that ballerina is right out. Having choreography in your shows doesn't make you a ballerina just because you took serious ballet lessons as a kid. Second- you can layer all the EDM and Hot Topic/Evanescence-inspired steam punk outfits you want over your autotuned covers of Nu Metal songs, but at the end of the day: A Mormon who plays the violin cannot not be a rockstar. Not even if you do all the things mentioned above. I am being a little facetious, but not much. Again, this is not about the quality of her music. It just isn't rock and roll. "Rock star" is not a compliment. It's a job description. David Bowie and Klaus Noomi were both awesome. Only one was a rock star.
Nope. Vanessa Carlton is closer (well, pop star ballerina, not rock). She did at least train at a highly professional level in ballet. Even then, there is a difference in being a professional ballet dancer or a "ballerina". Though misused, the term actually applies to a rare sort of pedigree at the top of her particular style in the ballet world. Please stop calling anyone who took Dolly Dinkle classes at age 5 a "ballerina".
I saw her live and I was 100% thinking the same thing. One of the most incredible performances I've ever seen. Her choreography is unbelievable considering she's doing it all while playing the violin. And yes it is real. She accidentally dropped her violin on stage.
I am a robotic engineer, and John pictured the most accurate representation of the situation that I have seen from someone who does not work in the field. Thank you for that!

Hello from Czech Republic. I've been asked about this word a few times during my life so I did some research in linguistics and the closest english term is "serf"...which in real terms is a feudal tag for slave bound to land.
Andrew Yang is the only candidate talking candidly about this major issue. Was a Bernie fan in 2016, but after hearing Yang's Joe Rogan interview my eyes were really opened. Minimum wage and free college won't be useful when automation hits, and it will hit hard. Yang Gang to secure the bag and secure American jobs!
There is no way that can be done without a fight. And when you look at the issue you should not think it as an American problem, people are exploited all over the world. Even if they throw you a bone time to time - it is done by over exploiting other workers in other corners of the world. There is no American vs Russian vs German vs Chinese. There is Worker vs Exploitators. Remember this when the capital brings about the next world war.
The occupation done by humans keeps changing all the time.Yes ppl will lose jobs but that doesn’t mean u should stop automation which will have far more dire consequences than losing jobs.Issues like poverty can never be completely solved,we can only reduce the impact it has on the poorest ppl in the country.Our only hope for this is education only cuz every policy implemented will start becoming outdated due to the current progress rate of humans.Even if America wants to implement some really good plan,it will affect it economically which will lead to the country falling behind...leading to larger loss of soft power,influence,etc....so u see we have to come up with something on a global scale...
Automation scares me. Currently I feel very vulnerable in my position. Dont get me wrong automation made my job easier but it no longer feels fulfilling. To keep it short I work in a NOC for a fairly large company. Automation is capable of finding and dispatching issues before you can blink an eye. A few years ago that was not the case. For example on an average night we may have 5 or 6 people staffed. I'm convinced we could cut staffing down to 2 people a night on average because of how much automation handles now for us. Give it a few years and won't need anyone.

Wish he'd addressed the potential for human civilization to shift away from job-oriented livelihood. The advent of mass automation could very well, over time, lead us to a place where we don't need to work to survive, live, or even thrive. Human pursuits could be based on interest, passion, art, entertainment, scientific advancement, and voluntary craftsmanship. This would, of course, take a massive shift in economic and societal paradigms, but this is where I see it leading. Well, either that, or a dystopian nightmare. Honestly not sure which is more of a fantasy.
You know how the nutjobs like to yell "that's communism"? Well, the utopian and often overtly "communist" texts I used to read as a kid made exactly these predictions all the time. Sadly no sign of moving in that direction... whereas old-school dystopian sci-fi often feels like it was used as a mission statement. My money's on the dystopia.
There is an inherent issue in this though. When we don't have work, or some set schedule for things that we need to do (eg. School, taking kids to school, jobs, etc) we lose the structure in our life and more easily fall to depression. We become lazy and start to hate ourselves for that. I think that's partly why this generation is so depressed. It's difficult to know how we could handle that when we reached that point.
From a business perspective. Automation is the shit! It separates time from money which allows you to generate tons of profits. In turn you use those to educate folks and create charities.
18:48 Hi, I’m a stagehand, trust me, there is actually very little left to automate in a cost-effective manner. It’s very non-routine, despite everything being some form of routine.
I'm surprised you didn't talk about the even bigger effect this has on income inequality. When automation makes the average worker 10 times more productive what happens to their salary? Nothing, the company just increases executive pay and takes the rest in profit. We've already seen this happen and it's only going to get worse.
@@owenkeller2748 It kinda doesnt. Prices of many goods have stayed stable pegged to inflation for years. In other cases they have gone up. Salaries though have not risen in 30 years which makes good more expensive for consumers
Yet the average consumer is able to afford a smart phone... A device that provides, texting/calling, emails, internet etc. Rewind “30 years” and then explain to me how all of the devices needed would work out less expensive than what an iPhone costs.
Andrew Yang is running for president and this is his tentpole issue. We need to start having a serious conversation about what happens when the millions of Americans are suddenly without jobs. I don't think Yang will get the nomination but I'm super glad he's in the race to bring up this conversation
@Brion StrongholdLuddite? No. Retarded? No. Socialist? Debatable. Electable? Absolutely not. And that last part is the ONLY thing ANYONE needs to know about ANY Democrat in 2020. If you have zero chance of winning, GTFO. Only the grownups need apply. I really wish more of John Oliver's audience would tune in to Bill Maher, but sadly there seems to be very little crossover between the two audiences. And only the type of people in Maher's audience are living in reality. Oliver makes LOTS of great points, but tries to remain mostly neutral. Neutrality is a serious problem in the era of Trump. People need to be biased. Biased towards facts, biased towards pragmatism, and biased towards winning, but biased just the same. And neither Yang nor his supporters are any of those. Still, stick with insults that are valid. He's no idiot, he's just not electable.
@Brion Stronghold >Yang's a luddite are you slow perhaps? he's proposing a solution when technology will take over the majority driver jobs as opposed to try and stop technology to keep people in the workforce, as a luddite would do.
There's a city called Fuckett in Thighland. It's English's use of TH and PH as digraphs for the sounds of þ and F, that leads to this misunderstanding. PH and TH in Romanized Thai both make sounds closer to P and T, than to F and þ. But still distinctly different from standalone P and T, in ways English speakers aren't accustomed to hearing.
What economists tend to completely miss about modern automation with their comparisons to the past is what exactly is being automated. Previous automation largely replaced muscle power for doing physical work, and extremely narrow computational tasks. Automation has never before threatened the usefulness of the human brain before. Now, AI is increasingly moving into areas that were exclusively human only a decade ago. What makes "this time different" is that humans no longer have a total monopoly on intelligence. It's still going to be a long time before someone develops a human level AGI, but you don't need that to replace the majority of jobs. The average human worker will not have the extensive education and technical knowledge to take advantage of the new jobs created by AI, of which there will be far fewer than jobs that are automated away.
I've been getting into computer programming and one example of this I think people don't fully understand is how programmers are trained to program such that we don't need to program the same things. Fundamentally, the only thing a human can really do that is indefinitely "workable" is come up with ideas of things that *don't exist* and make them exist. Being able to come up with solutions to problems that don't exist, nobody asked for, but everyone wants is an extremely *human* thing that is far more rewarding than making roughly same 5 machines or writing roughly the same 5 programs with some variation..maybe even making 5 different neural nets every day if you're all fancy every day 5 days a week.. The problem with the *fear of automation* or anyone's push against it is that the *people that hate the job the most* are the ones that are being innovative enough to find ways to automate it. . Look at that guy who doesn't want their son to be a lumberjack, THOSE are the types of people *all humans* can become if we don't limit ourselves to thinking in a bubble of 1 career path for life. Only when we are able to break the chains society places on us that label us as one thing or another can we truly open our mind enough to fix the MANY problems that the world faces when you have thousands of different career paths unknowingly and often unwillingly screwing up the world because it's just them doing what they know how to do. People call them "Renascence Men & Women" but I like to call them what they really are... "Human beings".
I think the point is that people in that day thought the same thing, that certain jobs or tasks were safe or that they’d be completely wiped out which just hasn’t been the case. There will always be a need for humans, whether that’s inherent to the job or simply people’s preference or comfort level… as that changes, which it inevitably will, more jobs will be created to circumvent that issue.
"Previous automation largely replaced muscle power for doing physical work and extremely narrow computational tasks. Automation has never before threatened the usefulness of the human brain before." "The average human worker will not have the extensive education and technical knowledge to take advantage of the new jobs created by AI, of which there will be far fewer than jobs that are automated away." So, it was fine when we were putting non-college educated blue collar workers out of the job, while also not putting in any effort to fund retraing for them so they could be gainfully employed elsewhere, but now that white collar workers are on the chopping block, it's a problem?
@@br-ig3pr yes? I thought that was a pretty objectively good thing to do. We, as a society and generally as a species, want less labor intensive tasks and more mentally intensive ones since that’s what advances society. Either that or it would help with the labor intensive tasks requiring less people and time to complete the task. This isn’t a class warfare thing, it’s helping laborers so we’ll need less laborers and can do more shit. If you’re going from the “top” rather than the bottom you’re stifling that growth unless done in a very particular manner.
~20 years ago in elementary school we read a story set some time in the future where everyone typically worked half an hour per week, basically checking up on the machines, and spent the rest of the time with the family or education etc. This is what we should strive after imho. Automation isn't the problem, but rather ensuring a good distribution of the benefits. Automation today is done to increase profits, this needs to change, somehow.
Gnaal, problem is: every single media sells the opposite idea. Any individual who at leasts watches the Venus Project comes to that perception of what you just wrote. Hopefully you get to the top comment.
The thing is 99% of jobs are going to be automated at some point in the future. Then we can all chill and do other stuff. But the problem is the transitioning process. What's gonna happen when 50% of the population is working and the other 50% isn't. Are 50% on welfare while the other 50% is working? How much are we supposed to pay those on welfare? If you pay them too much, noone is going to want to work. If you pay them too little, there is going to be a civil war because over 50% are poor. I thought about this many times and I'm yet to think of a solution for this.
@@windosa2006 I think there are a few solutions to this, but my favorite is this, and hear me out: Universal Basic Income. What if, instead of welfare as it's structured now, everyone, that's EVERYONE, who is a citizen over 16 gets a monthly or weekly stipend. Let's say the amount is $1000/month. This isn't a whole lot of money. 12,000 a year is definitely hard to live on (though possible, if you have roommates and flexible eating habits), so most people will want to find a job to increase their quality of living. We will still have jobs that are worth a little, or a lot. And we will still have rich people and poor people. The disparity just won't be as large. If you're asking "how will the government get enough money to give everyone $1000/month!? How much are these working people being taxed?" - I invite you to consider the question yourself. How does how much the jobs are taxed change people's behavior when the choice is still not working and getting the minimum, or working and receiving a bit more income? How do you feel about our current circumstance with billions of dollars in offshore accounts, just because collecting that much money is a status symbol?
But then people might start to question why the system is set up to screw over a majority of the people. Better to make people think they fail because they're not good enough.
@@BlitzkriegOmega Yeah. Considering historically humans have demonstrated remarkable flexibility in how we see groups of people according to economic pressures. People always find some other rationalization.. but at the end of the day, there are enough people who believe whatever rich people say to shape ethics accordingly.

"That's a fact! What is that fact based on? Nothing, other than my total conviction that is true." If your president can do stuff like that, so do you, John!
It is a fact Ricardo, If your bored take a tour for a manufacturing plant an ask how many jobs USED to run a section of the process. You'll soon see how automation is maximizing profits for companies by reducing jobs.

I'm saying that it's all right for others to do that, since the president trivialized that kind of behaviour.

If your school has a "make your own major" type of thing, look at emerging industries and pick classes structured around one of them. Is it just that your college doesn't even have these classes or something?
Part of the problem is hyper-specialization. The broader a topic is, the more profit incentive is in place to replace it. So people just need much deeper training for jobs today than they used to. That's only going to get worse.
American schooling is 2-3 years behind the equivalent european education...europeans with a high school diploma are like Americans in their junior year of college. I also wouldn't be surprised to find that the asian education systems were closer to the europeans than us. America needs to step up to the plate and do better.
@@faktafakta316 Obviously, AI can cause huge problems. If you make it right, though, and all it does is remove need for work, then some people might get bored and become troublemakers for fun, and some might be depressed ; but I believe that if people were brought up right, it would mostly be eliminated. ASI will probably be able to deal with any such problems.
I know a lot of nations, so yeah. (don't try me I am bad in stress situations and forget everything) But on my best days I can name every nation in mainland north AND south America. Just perhaps not the super small ones. Africa is definitely my weakest spot.
speedy01247 Africa is easy, the easiest are the coastal countries. Kinda stupid because i learned all the countries in Asia, Europe and Africa, but weirdly not the Americas

This is precisely why whenever a recruiter asks me about my carrer plan, my answer is "I don't have a carrer plan. What do you guys need me to do?" Also, I do NOT want to work a job that requires social intelligence. Why the heck do you think I got into programming?
