It's depressing that bulls**t like this is still allowed to go unchallenged. When in the history of capitalism do companies, out of the goodness of their heart, find better paying jobs for workers they don't need any more?

The only way CEOs call sell this shiny happy future of jobs being automated away, is to be allowed to get away with lies like this. It's long past the point our politics deals with the reality of automation by AI/robots. It's already happening, and it's only going to accelerate.

this is why I said it was huge that the one robot could change its own battery and once it could do maintenance and repair on one of its kind its going to be an even greater leap. I don't think that is very far away. Honestly the thing likely to sink it is enshitification where all repair parts and such will only be through a contract and maybe only authorized units will have the repair code and they will send one to your place with your monthly subscription. Which im like 99% sure will happen.
