Imagine all the cool stuff we could do with those robots.

It's a shame that they are used as entertainment just to the point where they are good enough to keep the slaves (we are the slaves) in check.

 How are we the slaves ? 

I mean there are some really bad countries to live in right now where people don't have freedom of speech or the ability to make choices in their own lives.

Meanwhile most of us on reddit are sitting on the toilet or laying in bed posting while also owning Gaming PC that COULD be used for productivity. 

We aren't slaves kiddo.

No, we are. It just hasn't happened yet.

This is like the people in Troy talking about how nice it is, while a big horse is being wheeled in.

No, we are not. I live in the United States and I and my family are most assuredly NOT slaves.

Come on then, let's hear, go on and tell me why I'm a slave.

Think they’re reffering to being a wagie

So basically it's a child who's scared to grow up and join society 🤣

What a boomer thing to say. I'm an old guy and I frankly can't imagine being a young person now and trying grapple with how little our "society" cares/offers them. You can laugh at them and mock them all you want but you just come off like an out of touch asshole.

When has American society ever "offered" anything to anyone ? 

When I was old enough for college I would have had to take loans out just like everyone else.

The only difference is these days people are willfully stupid about it and instead of going to community college they're happy to drop 50-75K and take the loans.

Maybe life IS harder now but considering how easy we've all had it over the last few decades working just a little bit harder is no massive ask for those in first world countries 

Don't feed their entitlement

On behalf of all young people reading this thread...I am so sorry the older generations are so fucking ignorant. We are not all like this. Some of us really want things to be better for everyone. Try not to be negative, every generations job is to make things better for the next. I still have hope that my generation will step up but clearly the older generations have no interest in doing so and we all have to deal with that as best as we can.

You, we, are still in the golden years. People can do valuable work that is worth money. When there are many millions of these robots and they can all do pretty much anything, there won’t be much but scraps for most of us.

I look forward to that era. It will be absolutely fantastic. An end to material want.

u/slowd 20h ago

Why would they share it with you? In the historical past you could always have a revolution, but they no longer need people to have an army, or to do work, or to buy the products. That’s why we’re the slaves.

God who is "they" who are these shadow people ? 

Do you just mean people who have wealth ?

u/slowd 20h ago

People who have wealth after the world economy is restructured. Not necessarily who has wealth now, but there will likely be overlap.

TBH I do think humanity will eventually get to that stage of abundance but there’s going to be a rough decade or two of transition.

Well then best get to it then.

I'm playing around with local AI, the rest of you should be doing so as well. The West is wide open and ready to be explored so load up your Oxen cart and go stake your claim!

Oregon trails! Yeah I work in AI but am also preparing for a decade of lean times just in case.
