And that's expensive

For the job it does

Fair enough

China's margins have shurnk massively in the past 10 years for manufacturers

Like 20%-7% kinda shrink

It setting to the point its becoming much less worth it

You wanna beat China, neutralise their population advantage

A large pop just becomes a burden if they have nothing to do

Makes sense

I didn't know automation had hit that level and cost-effeciency already

Id give you some specific examples ive done but im kinda bound by NDA

and you never know who is here

what kind of jobs can't machines do yet? what ones are going to take the longest to automate?

I'd assume they can do just about anything, but the complex tasks are expensive

Ones that require more abstract thought

Like Engineering

writing the software the machines run on?

Yes

Stuff like that

You're talking loading/unloading

palletising

assembly

Welding

Google is already hard at work at automating that as well

well once they automate programming we're all fucked anyway

I work in online ecommerce - platform provider UK and EMEA market. UK still leading the world.

They're already doing that

Most likely will be like cloning Crafty

*To an extent*

Will be off limits

Machine learning is getting to that stage sa well

Incase anyone was worried about people shopping

I expect certain tasks will be off limits to AI

Of course they won't @Joshu

They will

Commercial machine learning is still pretty blind

We have done it plenty

they're having trouble keeping war off limits to AI, so forgive me if i am skeptical lol

Cloning for one

We dont have weapons in space

true
