runupon cracker posted:Every instance of "won't get automated" should be replaced with "will get automated later than most other jobs." Eventually every job doable by a human will be doable by a machine, unless we blow ourselves up before we reach that point. I'm sure that a number of years ago that you could still count on your fingers, 99%+ of people thought that a journalism job could never be automated, and yet, here we are. It simply does not make sense to look at any job and say "a machine could never do this!" And I say this as a programmer who thinks the famous "Programming Sucks" piece is an accurate description of how broken software development is, as a whole. All it takes is breaking down tasks into small enough chunks, and then building systems to handle those chunks. Given enough time and capital, it will happen with everything. thnk you for confirming that we are hosed

Smeed posted:It's almost like when one job disappears it motivates people to find other ways to offer value to the economy. Huh so weird what a novel concept. what we are saying is the rules are changing. that new job people move to will also quickly be automated you can even automate programming and IT work. you can automate automation

Spunky Psycho Ho posted:Of course automation and robots are taking jobs but a lot of people seem to think this somehow negates the effect of globalization and use it to justify off shoring factories i think people are worried because trump hasn't mentioned automation even once. not even a tweet. and since it's actually the thing that has taken the majority of manufacturing jobs that makes people feel like he doesnt have the right priorities you know that plant he "saved" in indiana? those jobs arent going to mexico but recently they announced they are automating a lot of them. so yay american robots got jobs
