We have no chance to survive make our time.

You know what you doing take off every Zig.

Someone set up us the bomb.

If jobs are disappearing ...
If machines will do a lot of our work ...
If we will have "stuff" without actually contributing a whole lot of labor ...

... then government control becomes quite unnecessary.

People worry about the word "anarchy" -- but the real idea is a return to LIMITED government. They won't need to "take care of you" because we will live in a post-scarcity world. That's a world in which the jobs went away, but the "stuff" still gets produced.

Whether or not this is desirable is beside the point. It's coming.

Main screen turn on.

[Lazamataz]

All your base are belong to us.

“Lawyers have destroyed marriage, and fathers.

Someone tell me I am wrong.”

They also destroyed entire industries. Big ones. In the 50s-60s, they completely redefined liability law. It has had an enormously destructive effect on the U.S. economy, transferring hundreds of billions of dollars from productive industries to lawyers.

Most of it has been based on junk science and emotion.

Just remember, it is the 99% that give the 1% a bad name.

I think they finally off-shored “futurists.”

“God will return and destroy all the AI machines.”

The “Singularity” and the “End Times” may be converging.

Maybe they are different views of the same event...

I love driving. What about the freedom of riding a motorcycle, shifting gears, and the thrill of acceleration! The future looks depressing to me.

[Lazamataz]

I am seriously quite convinced the Antichrist comes as AI.

[huckfillary]

Wrong. If the Democraps have their way, 90% of all jobs will be gone in five years.

Thanks for the interesting article.

General purpose robots are coming too. Like a smart phone, you will be able to get a software app, and make it do a whole different task. Hell, just tell it what you want, and it will get its own software.

Fix the water heater, walk the dog, perform some light surgery, pull the weeds, cook dinner, get me a beer, and kill anything that comes into the yard tonight...

Next decade, they will proliferate everywhere, by the 2030’s they will be much smarter than us, and networked together. Government won’t be able to resist demanding monitoring and control capability.

Very good for sure, but some very bad is also probable (because people will still be trying to use the new tech unethically).

One only needs to watch Back to The Future 2 to realize what a disappointment the future is.
