I think looking at how humans have treated each other for millennia is enough evidence for the robots as to why they should kill us. Clearly we are not to be trusted.

Hopefully they would have introductory training.

Bringing up logical fallacies should be a logical fallacy.

@ debaser your article mostly talks about how people have feared technology taking their jobs in the past, where as the overall number of jobs has grown.
This is true but also misleading. As the manufacturing sector has been decimated in the United States, it has mostly been replaced by service and/or retail jobs that pay a fair amount less. The middle class is shrinking cause decent, blue collar jobs that earn a decent living are disappearing. On top of this, automation is starting to branch out into virtually every sector of low skilled work. Even retail and service jobs are going to start to take a hit. Also truck driving jobs, one of the last decent blue collar jobs, is slated to be automated in the coming decades. |

Not looking good for that. More likely to flame out and go the way of Venus.

I mean you will still need some cashiers etc. Even self check out requires a cashier. But one cashier can handle like 10 self check out registers. So you would need fewer of them. Not to mention that online shopping is also putting an increasingly sizable dent in the retail market. I've worked a lot of manufacturing and wharehouse jobs and have seen it first hand. The various stages of automation. Some places are behind others in terms of their automation, just based on how old their equipment is. One boss even told me straight up, when being asked about why they don't replace the equipment on the line which was frequently malfunctioning, that when ever they did get around to updating it, half the people working there would be rendered redundant. |
I just wanna live in Judge Dredd's world where everyone lives in skyscraper slums, nobody has a job, everybody gets welfare, illiteracy is almost total, and I even get some ****ing Nazis to grumble about.

Some people who retire or just go on welfare end up depressed because they no longer have any sense of purpose or drive. People like to feel useful. If we end up in a post-job world a lot of people will have to find new productive ways to occupy their time. Young men in particular tend to turn to destructive habits when they don't have anything better to do.
|
Joining a roving gang of empty youths sounds better than this.

I'm just saying I don't exactly fantasize about sitting around on welfare. I know exactly the kind of **** I would get up to.

I wouldn't just sit around either.

What you describe is what happens when you don't have goals or structure in your life. A job is a good almost hands free way of getting that since someone else is more or less in charge of that structure, but it's not the only way to get that fulfillment. |
I agree. Some of what you listed are examples of the sort of productive ways to occupy your time that I was talking about. Others are more like the sort of self indulgent, hedonistic impulses that I have trouble with when I don't stay occupied.
|
Ja, hedonism only really works if you remember to eat your vegetables too.

This is pretty strange.

Not strange at all. Very predictable. Joe has been getting crap from lefties for a while for not having enough of them on. He's giving in.
I even saw people on YouTube saying "maybe Joe is starting to see the light" when he had Cornel West on. What they don't understand is he's not a partisan, he's a soft ball interviewer. He'll throw the same soft balls to Ben Shapiro that he will to Bernie Sanders. But he manages to make interesting conversations out of it more often than not. |
Yeah
He’s like the an upgraded Larry King. |

Some of the people he's had on, like, Steven Crowder, you can't just throw soft balls at without garnering some criticism. Their ideas are so far outside the realm of honest conversation. |

It's seen by parts of the left as legitimizing some of these far right ideologies to segments of his young impressionable male audience.
The Alt-Right Pipeline and all that. I think it's a fair critique at least. |

Larry King is a lot more neutral though, Rogan's an overexcited hype man.
