if they weren't, the west wouldn't be importing them en masse
But engineering is so tough, only a fraction of the population can be them.
So who are we kidding.
thats why there are levels of engineering
You don't have to build rocket-ships
I think you misunderstood what I just said.
Engineering is not that hard
Yes it is.
Engineering as a study is hard
Engineering as a trade, is not
Nah. I don't think I'm that smart and I have an engineering degree

So fixing robots will be simple, will it
And it will employ everyone.
But I will agree that not everyone can do it
Every job replaced by automation is a NEW PERSON looking for a job on the same market as everyone else.
Job seekers get more and more crowded.
heres the difference
Engineering as a study is:
"Build a machine with only 5 wires, and an engine"
Engineering as a general trade
"Fake it 'till you make it" like any trade really 😛
and no, not THAt literally
@Scribblehatch yeah, that's true
I'm concerned about all the soon to be unemployed truckers
This is not a car replacing the horse situation.
Yes.
Hence they should find a backup skill to replace their job with,
And i know its not easy, but life isn't easy
It's one of the only jobs that you can rely on to pay you enough, that you can get without much prep and expense.
They should, but that doesn't fix the problem
Every job needing very specific requirements and years of experience. Why is no one surprised things have gotten so BAD out there with the amount of unemployed?
And WHY do people keep misreading the stats?
Unemployment only accounts for the people still looking.
full AI run post-scarce society will fix the problem
Until that, you'll always have problems and a need to fix it
It could fix the problem, but we have to choose for it to without things going to shit in the mean time
If you're living paycheck to paycheck already..
You have NO BACKUP.
Once your current situation dissolves, that's it for you. A sudden free fall into the abyss.
living paycheck to paycheck doesn't mean you're working 16/7
people rioting and razing all robotics labs until robots are outlawed could also fix the problem
Why did he just say 16/7.
16 hours per day, 7 days per week
Yes.
