And many of our jobs are in automation research and implementation.
Our work puts dozens, if not thousands of people out of work. When driverless vehicles are finalized, that work will put millions of people out of a job.
Is it a crime? No. But it sure very negatively impacts people. Why not illegalize implementation of automation?
- yavi 12y agoI think you're drawing a false parallel, and I hope you're not serious. An action which has a victim is not necessarily a crime, and an action which is deemed a crime does not necessarily have a victim. Note that this is a practical distinction, not an ideological one. In a pure ideological social-contract style system one could argue that the basic definition of a crime should be an action which infringes on the rights that we as a society agree to possess. On a very basic level, illegalizing things because they 'negatively impact people' would bring capitalism to a grinding halt.
