I think they are getting close to that now. And voice response units don't need moving parts. I wonder if they will have Indian accents to make them more believable, or if we will actually be able to understand them.
AND cut "disability'. There a lot of fat lazy white trash collecting "disability". Yes, if you are too fat you can collect "disability". There are drug addicts and alcoholics who collect "disability".
She left out the biggest cause: laziness, partially caused by the government paying more in unemployment and welfare than having a job.
And stifled immigration? What is she smoking? Unless she means stifled from countries with strong work ethics.
Yes, they are getting close. Once that happens, lots of jobs will be eliminated. A suprising part of the populations produces nothing but hot air.
They may throw in some with Indian accents just for nostalga sake. Or they will call you by your first name (Mr. Danny).
Once they get really good, they could actually replace teachers. Even better, unlike people, they can actually LEARN what works and what doesn’t and SHARE those observations perfectly with each Bot instance.
I have never seen a business closed due to a lack of labor.
I’m 63 years of age.
I’ve lived on metro DC and a fast growing county in Florida.
From the fairyland of Wall Street, where there can never be too much immigration or enough H-1B visas.
Most corporations prefer electronic training as every important topic can be covered reliably.
You mean.....Gasp!....they might have to pay people more???
The Horror!
Immigration and illegal entry are two different subjects. Demographics is destiny. The worsening labor shortage is old news, was predicted and laid out long ago, like in the early 90’s. Anyone just discovering it (or making fun of it) hasn’t paid attention to what’s been going on.
Low immigration rates of skilled people is a problem. The retiring of tens of millions of Boomers is a problem. Comparatively low birth rates for the last 25 years is a problem. Many of today’s youngsters skip right over the physical labor starter jobs and never work in those fields. Trades are where the employments shortages are cramping output.
Allowing millions of illegal aliens with few skills into the country is a problem, and it requires more skilled workers too, so illegal aliens actually increase the skilled worker shortage because they use the services of skilled people, like medical people for example. They take up space in hospitals and on doctors’ schedules.
People on welfare consume but don’t produce. That’s a double whammy on the producers.
Left unsaid about the number of folks not willing to work is the growing number who can’t work, or do much of anything productive. The bizness guys are just getting around to reporting on the number of covid rebounders who just feel too punky to do anything. That number has apparently passed two million and is growing. And they will qualify both for disability and a damage claim for clotshot damage. Don’t expect the gummint pencil pushers to point out this development.
Gee, i dunno. Sure looks like the ghettos of America have plenty of idle hands except when it comes to rioting and stealing
When I was in high school your choices after graduation were go into the military, get a trade, or go to college.
For 40 years they’ve pumped college into these kids and now want to know where are the Craftsman?
They hire these illegals for pennies and then wonder why a building collapses or the a/c doesn’t work properly.
Well, you get what you pay for!
I MUST have a completely different dictionary.
That’s a man, baby.
Looks like Michael J Fox with extensions 😱
Labor shortage ping.
What happens when we replace judges, lawyers, and the jury with AI,,.
Interesting thought huh?

Of course, lots of boys sitting on their asses, playing video games and vaping too. Not everyone will be a winner.
My neighbor does several job fairs for his company. He tells me that as soon as word spreads that they drug test, few come to their table
