But what happens when work it mostly worthless, because it's all automated?

But those increasing prices for robot labor are (partially) fed into the basic income, so UBI receivers will have more to spend. There is a cycle and how quickly it cycles will be determined by how quick the various parts move. Not all rob

Moreover, each element of data you give these services helps them expand their datasets. Its free for a reason. Would it be possible to run a service like this in a truly distributed fashion, SETI@Home and Folding@Home style?

Perhaps. Imagine how much less we'd all have to work and still have enough money to live, if part of our livelihood was payed by robots.

Of course there would need to be a proper definition, I don't exactly know that too. Regardless, I do favor automation, just as a I favor to have a more leisurely life. This is possible with automation, but not as the world currently w

An automation tax will reduce the inequality between owners of capital, who can buy robots, and those who cannot. I think that's a positive thing. The tax level should strike a balance that makes it worthwhile to automate something bu

Some sort of automation tax perhaps? Before machines, horses did the work and I think farmers also needed to pay a tax for their horses (citation needed). Such a tax should strike such a balance that it's still worth to automate work b

If labor from robots and machines in general also taxed, governments should even subsidize the initial cost of those machine, as that cost/investment will be rewarded later by the taxes.

No. This [0] is 4-5 years old and I don't think much progress has been made in getting a computer to classify that image as 'funny' and explain why. And if/when it could, I doubt we'd call it intelligent. And this

I'm leaving my AI gloves and scarf in the closet for a little longer. I don't think there is a need for 'real AI' in order to replace a lot of humans. Just normal programming in the hands of non-tech office workers can a

Well, if no one is tracking it, there is no count and that would thus be countless. But in all seriousness, I am curious about this as well.

When I was in the US, I also had to mentally adjust for the incomplete, tax-less, pricing at places. At the airport, I thought I could buy one last thing from my last few coins and bills of change. Quite a bummer at the register when it tur

Nice, I've been looking for an offline solution to do this sort of thing to run on a robot for RoboCup@Home. Perhaps http://sag.art.uniroma2.it/demo-software/huric/ might also provide some training data. It&

It has the potential to redefine what we think of as 'creativity', as happened with what we consider intelligence and what we think of as "AI Hard" problems. Perhaps what these networks are generating can be labeled bett

Interesting. What I like about the "Day to Night" example is that is clearly demonstrates that these sort of networks lack common sense. It expects light to be where they are clearly (to humans with common sense at least) no thing

Never been to such a night, but apparently it helps if you have a washing machine or dishwasher or stuff like that to bring into the student house. There are some student-scout groups in some Dutch student cities, maybe Delft has one too.

Dutch scout here, I've been a scout since I was 7 and I'm now 28 and a cub scout leader (kids aged 7-11). Being in scouting can be perceived (in NL at least) as for nerds/geeks or 'corny' (don't know what is a

This is quite common in the Eindhoven area in the Netherlands where ASML is located. A lot of companies make some parts for ASML. I'm not sure how detailed the requirements are when given to the companies but from what I understand,
