It'll be a few years before you have a robot plumber showing his ass crack under your kitchen sink .
"no serviceable parts inside".
in the future everything will be modular. if something broke, it can only be replaced.
by robots. -

There will always be cheap bastards who want to pay to fix something rather than replace it and so there will always be people offering the repair services. -

Essentially what I was driving at was raising the next generation to be the ones that program the mechanics and move sequences for these trades-bots.
And along with that, train a few in 3d graphics design so that they can feed the 3d printers that manufacture those plumber-bot ass cracks to be as aesthetically charming as they can be. -

2019-04-16 at 5:23 PM UTCYou only need a few programmers...same code in same model robot etc.
3 billion robot programmers would result in programming jobs paying less than a burger flipper. -

That's a good point, but then it hearkens back to another point I had earlier in this thread...
If we can automate literally everything, then nobody would have to work...
It's not gonna be an overnight change, but it does seem like a pretty desirable option.
If people really still want to work that badly, I'm sure they can find a hobby that will satisfy them. -

who else can better program bots than the bots themselves ? -

For sure... That's the end game here after all, isn't it?
We want to automate literally everything.
That would eliminate the need for "work", as we currently call it, and thus change the world entirely.
It would be such a major paradigm shift... Wages, expenses, bills, etc... These would all become archaic terms. -

except the question why the ones who owns these means of production would want to share their produce with you ?
this is exactly the senario that karl encountered. why wouldnthe land owner let proles getbfree firewoods from their lands ?
why would people who owns robots that produce goods and services *want* too share the goods and services with you ? -
2019-04-16 at 5:33 PM UTCBenny would you prefer a real human prostitute or a robot one? I suspect the oldest profession in the world would also be the last one.

Oh, they won't give it up voluntarily.
If old buddy Karl was truly accurate about anything, it's that it will take a violent revolution to wrest the means of production from the tyrannical oppressors. -

Actually, literally anything black market (prostitution, drugs, illegal animal poaching, etc) would represent a formidable challenge to overcome first for this whole plan to unfold. -

yes and the means to prevent such an uprising is by conglomerating capitals into a capital based feudal state.
when corporations can defend themselves with state sanctioned laws backed by state sanctioned guns, their means of production is secured.
you have to remember that even americans, with the guns afforded to them by their second amendent are no match for government forces. -
