How low skill? You mean like journalists?

2019-12-06 06:51:07 UTC  

remember that the top professors and intellects in the 90s said a computer driving a car was a physical impossibility

2019-12-06 06:51:39 UTC  

Remember that 5 years ago they said that automated cars were only 2 years away?

2019-12-06 06:52:03 UTC  

Alphabet has already put millions of miles on the road with 0 accidents

2019-12-06 06:52:06 UTC  

they're already here

2019-12-06 06:52:11 UTC  

they're just not cost effective atm

2019-12-06 06:52:26 UTC  

when the machinery to make these things more cheaply happens then they will be everywhere

2019-12-06 06:52:30 UTC  

just like all tech

2019-12-06 06:52:32 UTC  

To imply that fast food relies on low skill workers for their profits is laughable

2019-12-06 06:52:57 UTC  

Most people who work minimum wage dont get to eat out much

2019-12-06 06:53:32 UTC  

Not at the scale of middle and low middle class folks

2019-12-06 06:53:36 UTC  

@Tiberius nah ur assuming that

2019-12-06 06:54:04 UTC  

anecdotally I could say I know a lot of low skill workers eating out

2019-12-06 06:54:30 UTC  

*anecdotally*

2019-12-06 06:54:34 UTC  

SO apparently the "if it increases net profit, they'll do it" truth isn't fucking sticking

2019-12-06 06:54:49 UTC  

it sticks, something else is sticky too

2019-12-06 06:54:55 UTC  

Cost effective being something you imagine will be achieved by magic? Also autonomous cars get into accidents all the time...

2019-12-06 06:54:57 UTC  

bitch hush

2019-12-06 06:55:07 UTC  

not at Alphabet

2019-12-06 06:55:10 UTC  

Telsa sure

2019-12-06 06:55:12 UTC  

@Jokerfaic it doesn't increase net profits to remove a portion of the population's ability to spend

2019-12-06 06:55:18 UTC  

but Telsa is largely a joke of a company

2019-12-06 06:56:00 UTC  

you're forgetting that people only care about the immediate calman

2019-12-06 06:56:10 UTC  

I call this the '7th grader challenge' I challenge Boston Dynamics to build a robot to foot race a 12 year old in the hills of Tennessee after a good rain for 5 miles.

2019-12-06 06:56:14 UTC  

not all at once, no, that's why you do it slowly over time and lobby the federal reserve

2019-12-06 06:56:42 UTC  

it will eventually happen eternal boomer

2019-12-06 06:56:44 UTC  

yes, a joke of a company that sold out its fucking preorders for one of its vehicles

2019-12-06 06:56:49 UTC  

its just not a priority atm

2019-12-06 06:56:56 UTC  

as in completely sold out

2019-12-06 06:57:04 UTC  

every order

2019-12-06 06:57:09 UTC  

so? Apple isn't a revolutionary company either but makes a fuckload of sells

2019-12-06 06:57:20 UTC  

consumers are stupid and ruin the market TL;DR

2019-12-06 06:57:26 UTC  

Well I am sure you take this as an article of faith. Like transubstantiation of divine ascention....

2019-12-06 06:57:34 UTC  

when's the last time Apple had to close sales due to total lack of supply

2019-12-06 06:57:40 UTC  

trans what?

2019-12-06 06:57:44 UTC  

Most people arent supporting people on minimum wage jobs

2019-12-06 06:58:10 UTC  

idk what u mean by that

2019-12-06 06:58:12 UTC  

Most people working minimum wage are highschoolers and retirees

2019-12-06 06:58:18 UTC  

my statement was in regards to self-driving cars that work @Jokerfaic

2019-12-06 06:58:24 UTC  

not the success rate of sells

2019-12-06 06:58:35 UTC  

teslas appear to function just fine
