ALine Posted December 8, 2020 Posted December 8, 2020 Probably not any time soon. I had the same concern when a friend of mine convinced me other wise. Even though a language model did write that it does not mean that it is accurate in its story telling. But instead it will just write a "fill in the blank" story so to speak. Not a true reflection of reality 1

Area54 Posted December 8, 2020 Posted December 8, 2020 Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics (Vintage 1942 ) was really about how to constrain Artificial Intelligence rather than robots. If something equivalent is imposed on all future AI's there is little to worry about. If not, then be afraid. Be very afraid.

Same that will happen to all the other workers. I don't know what the answer is to the looming crisis is, but the crisis is coming. 1

ALine Posted December 8, 2020 Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) this actually bring up an good point. Are we at the stage in technological development that we could hypothetically replace all jobs with an automated system preforming them? Like not in a precise "1 to 1" job comparison but enough so that companies no long need to worry about hiring any physical person? What industries are we 1-5 years of phasing human workers out of?

I worked on installing a manufacturing line that needed 12 workers per shift to run. 20 years ago a line that produced the same volume of product would have employed 50 to 60 people per shift. My job after helping to install the line was to eliminate 5 of those jobs. The stated goal of the corporation that I worked for was to have 'dark' factories. In other words since there are no people working the lights aren't needed. I have seen what the current level of automation is and I am not as confident as you that there is no issue.

I guess I misunderstood your previous post. When you mentioned the 'looming crisis' I thought you were referring to the luddites with a play on words and was laughing at that. Oops!

Seriously ,we have just had the Iranians claim that an AI equipped machine gun killed their nuclear scientist. Not so funny.Where does the dark side of this development lead? Is it all 1 step forward and 1 step back or is it more chaotic?

I have visited in Switztzerland an entire manufactory of sanitary equipment that was fully robotized, very impressive. The only workers were maintenance staff for the robots. It was mentioned that out of each set of 4 robots one was in maintenance. Fortunately the design team was not robotized (yet), but that was in 2015.
