Why is everyone here so negative about this? This is pretty cool!
Technological unemployment is only going to get worse without a plan to support the people being replaced by automation. They can't just 'get another job'. As long as the benefits of this stuff only goes to shareholders, it can fuck off.
It's called structural change. And I don't see why it's a bad thing. We would still be plowing our fields with ox and cart if we had denied every technological unemployment in the past.
Delivery jobs are the most ungrateful and exhausting low-paying jobs. And you want humans to keep doing them for the rest of mankind's future? Pretty grim future in my opinion.
No. I don't want them to starve when they get replaced by robots, which is the current plan, apparently.
Well if you're ignorant enough to think things will stay the same for the rest of your life while digitalization is ramping up... With all respect, who's at fault here?! Just diversify and find different avenues.
