- jvanderbot 2y agoI understand, for sure. But if there's an effectively-free pipeline running with ancillary benefits of producing humans who want jobs, you're fighting an uphill battle against it. For structured work, I simply do not understand how making the most complicated machine imaginable is going to outproduce a targeted device made by engineers. For unstructured work, I simply do not understand how the device can perform at the required level. There is a sliding structured-unstructured scale, and I'm sure there's a niche there, I'm just not sure where it is.
- pixl97 2y agoThe particular problem with this is that effectively free pipeline of people is starting to run dry. Japan is on it's way to a population crash. China's population is on it's way to rapidly aging. The US population only grows because of immigration. Eventually the number of people that want to do your freehand task is going to be so low that the cost of building the complicated machine will be cheaper. If and when we get general intelligence in robots the paradigm changes greatly, the amount of bullshit the capitalists will get out of the robot will, to them at least, be well worth the cost.
