Remember folks, robots will turn red if they are bad.
Commie bots?
🤣🤣🤣
I like that one... 😂😂😂
The documentary I, Robot told us this years ago
You Watched too many movies 😅
"Make me dinner" "i can't do that, you're already 1200 calories above your recommended daily intake Dave"
being called fat by a robot is a new low
This would be great for dieting, no need to track intake.
I just want a bot gf that looks like Gemma Chan
- Me : grab a hammer.
🤣😂
“I’d like something to eat.” “The only edible items I scan in this room are a Honeycrisp apple and your cameraman. Which one shall I serve?”
I agree that NVDA is seen as the "Stock of the year." I'm interested in identifying potential stocks that could emulate META's growth over the next decade. With $250k allocated for investment, my goal is to retire comfortably.
AI, in my opinion, will be the next big thing. Refraining from making snap decisions based on transient fluctuations is essential for long-term growth similar to META. Put patience and a long-term view first, and if you want to make well-informed purchasing and selling decisions, consult a financial advisor.
Facing a similar situation, I sought advice from an invęstment advisęr. Through portfolio restructuring and diversification with good ETFs, S&P 500 and growth stocks, I've turned my portfolio around from $150k to over $700k in a few years.
Your invt-adviser must be really good, I hope it's okay to inquire if you're still collaborating with the same invt-adviser and how I can get in touch with them?
Thank you! I entered her full name into my browser, and her website came out on top. I filled her form and i hope she gets back to me soon.
I think that award goes out to Supermicro.

@@TheJoyriderzz No thanks
It's funny but dystopian to think of a rescue robot just standing there, buffering away for 10 seconds while you're dying on the ground. All because you wanted the cheaper internet package from Xfinity :')
Which is why you don't want a cloud connected device.
If your robot isn't running your own personal AI, it's not your robot.
@@autohmae agreed. Having a robot narc in your house is a terrible idea.
The technology will improve, so I'm sure that they will fix the latency problem before that occurs.
It's almost like all these companies watches iRobot and went "That slaps let's do it."
This is nuts. The conversation is so real. I saw it at first and thought it was fake. Thanks Dogogo for clarifying.
The conversation can't be real since you are talking to a dead machine that doesn't know what any of the words mean. It is just a fancy auto-complete, but maybe it will be enough to fool some investors.
@@caricue Well Google had an AI that was shutdown because it was emulating sentient behavior a little too well. I'm here for it. Still, hardware is a long, long way from matching a human brain
@@dave_by_day7632 They mostly gave up on creating General AI more than 20 years ago since no one could figure out how to even begin such a thing. We are now seeing the fruits of the push for Narrow AI, which can do amazing things, but is not anything but a mindless mechanism, and always will be. General AI is science fiction.
Anecdote: while working as a manager in *big company* warehouse, my dad knew a few forklift drivers. One time they implemented some automatic forklifts, to deal with moving some parts. In the act of protest, forklift drivers would cover the robot’s sensors with duct tape, so they became confuse and couldn’t do their job. Other thing - they would drop heavy packages/some liquid spill on the route of the robots, so humans could still operate (because it was just a small obsticle to avoid) but robots would stop and needed help. The management needed to call a meeting and assure this people that automatic forklifts were here only to help with some of the harder tasks, and no one is going to lose their jobs. I don’t know how it went, but we need to keep in mind that the workers will do things like that.
Isn't this the same type of activity that has occurred through history when jobs are threatened by automation? IIRC, it never stops investors from making the shift to said technology.
I can imagine the real conversation would be: "Can I get something to eat?" "Please purchase the cook pack for 89,99 per month"
Or, the closest convenient store is at the corner down the street. The fact that the robot did not even ask what he wants to eat and just assumed the apple because that is the object it was told to pick. This looked so scripted. The funny thing is that the human talks more like a robot than the robot does ^_^;;;
😂
But that is the chance to make a bundle pack of other add-on features to give it basic functionality. Then a steady avalanche of profit for the company through sub's, haha
@@brenjI could see that or instead of a “subscription” depending on said “service” or “action” it’s more like downloadable apps. Let’s be honest; their is going to be a “new” robot from different companies(once it’s affordable to the public or mass produced for companies- but the real profit comes once it’s services can be used by the common people for everyday use) saying “new upgrade”- “better tech” so on and so fourth. Kinda how Apple pushes a new iPhone every year because of some minute(tiny) change in either gear/tech to encourage you to buy it. This just leads to it being more price friendly for the consumer to be open minded on the price of said robot rather than now “I have to pay 4 digits on the robot itself and yet still pay (X) amount of dollars on a subscription that may or may not come with every mechanic you want or be at such a price range where you’d want one mechanic/action yet forced to be up charged to pay for the ones you don’t because it’s a “packaged deal”. No matter how you look at it; being able to fully buy something and own it compared to a subscription fund will always be a lot cheaper over the long run. Even though “micro transactions” will be at a cost on things that you’d assume should just come with the robot yet have to pay for.(Within reasoning theory I pray their isn’t an app that allows the use of limbs once you buy the robot.) But the whole purpose; I believe is the better option just so you’re able to transfer presets, and mechanics/actions to the “better” robots that comes out. With all honesty if the Apple vision pro was not 3500~ roughly to just purchase and yet at a price point most Apple users could afford like 1500~ that headset would have been main stream or an everyday eye-wear you would have seen a lot more people wearing/using. Despite the makings of theses AI Robots being marketed to cut down on company cost first(which why I think most of the showcases were them doing similar actions related to a job/ manual labor) we will not get consumer production for a long time.
@@zam023 How dense are you? Or have you not actually watched that whole video? It chose the apple because it was the only edible object in front of it.
Labor shortage? Maybe what they mean is that the pay is so low people don't wanna do those jobs.
No. It's not
@@mrbushpilotYes it is.
Having worked in a factory I can guarantee you that those jobs do pay well and it is sad how lazy most of the employees are. I’d automate too. The average gen Z American like myself are too entitled to ever take over for our parents generation of hardworking people.
@@edenjung9816 100s of people from the 3rd world will happily do that job with half of ur pay, so start lowering ur expectations
There is a labor shortage yet unemployment is very low. There isn't a labor shortage because americans do not want to work. There is a labor shortage because the actual population that is a part of the labor pool is shrinking while the number of older retirees is increasing. This is excaberated by the need for the greedy corporations to have continued profits while doing nothing to invest in the actual labor pool by paying for the education and training necessary to fill their needs. The modern worker is expected to take on massive debt to train and educate themselves in order to fill these roles, and many are choosing not to because it is not in their best interest. To me, the labor shortage means a lot of things. Its means our private sector has over expanded without a sufficient labor pool to handle that expansion AND the job creators could mitigate the problem by actually funding cheaper education and training, and paying adequate wages when workers get that training. but they will never do that because MUH PROFITS. They'll just make robots instead because they are cheaper than us.
I'm impressed how fluid the movements of the fingers are
Is going to walk like a human sooner than we think
@@leavingayeye5198what are you on lol, we didn’t even have the most basic form of gpt or animated androids in 1975 our technology didn’t even come close.
Fluid fingers, but clumsy walking?! Fingers can be remote controlled, but walking not, because robot may fall. So I posit the finger and arms movements are fake = remotely controlled. Too good to be true.
The robot waiting for 10 seconds in response to emergency sounds like something that can be easily solved by installing local emergency response software that allows instant reactions on certain situations, like contacting 911 and performing basic emergency procedures, while it is waiting for the server to respond.
That would require a lot of aditional computing capacity and Figure takes more like 3-4 sec. to respond. Also: Even if it's 10, it won't make a difference. If your life depends on 10 seconds you are not going to make it.
And make the robot act like a robot? They'll never do that: all their stupid investors would realize the robot is not actually thinking
Actually a 10 second response time to an emergency by your house robot is *far* better than having to wait for EMTs to arrive.
Ten seconds isn’t all that long. If your health emergency is so severe that you cannot survive for ten seconds without receiving medical intervention, you were almost certainly going to die anyway. I’m a regular senior safety marshal for the notoriously dangerous, Isle of Man TT motorcycle races. We have helicopter doctors on call in case of a serious incident and they usually arrive on scene within 5 mins of any emergency call and it’s up to us marshals to give immediate first aid until the Airmed Doctor arrives, but even then, we are specifically trained, in the event of a rider crashing in front of us, to stop and count to ten, before doing anything. (except for waving yellow flags and pressing the emergency button on the TETRA radio) The reason for this ten second delay is mainly because witnessing the sheer violence of a high speed motorcycle crash can be very shocking and the instinct to do something immediately can lead to people forgetting their situational awareness and doing silly things like running out into the track to help a fallen rider without checking to see that the yellow flags are out and that following riders have seen them and are slowing down. This short delay is highly unlikely to make any difference to the ultimate medical outcome of a fallen/injured rider, but it can definitely make the difference between acting rationally in a safe and controlled manner, and running about like a headless chicken, possibly making a bad situation even worse.
@@Marcel_Augustin Not with that kind of attitude.
People aren't leaving the workforce, the workforce is forcing people out. Steadily applying for jobs and not even getting calla back for things I'm well qualified for. And the fact that he launched a job board company then transitioned to robots to replace workers is a connection that my conspiratorial brain is clinging to.
That's capitalism at work😂
@@jacqdanielesto believe these won’t take over in any other ism out there
Same dude. Feels like gaslighting to me, I’m working to start a business ASAP.
These robots will be a flop just because something that is built for everything is a lot more expensive than a robot built for something specific, there will always be a need for people just not as factory cogs.
Companies literally are making fake/ghost job ads, and also using AI to filter YOU out after you apply. I hate the bs
This isn't a labour shortage there's an incentive shortage
labour shortage = lack of obedient cheap labours
The problem is that this new generation won't accept barely survival as a wage. I suppose me and my other boomer friends will have to clean our toilets ourselves.
wonder how long before the robots catch on to this and refuse to work as well :P
Also pretty certain their is no _global_ labor shortage at all, their might be a housing crisis though, because of how capital messed up pricing of those.
@@MrFujinkoProblem is I doubt our generation will ever get to own our own toilet

Israel is having difficulty finding willing golems among the nations... soon they will have robots
These are going to get really good really fast. There will come a point at which, not only will everyone have one in their home to do chores- they'll also be serving as security while you sleep and even "tag along with you" as your own personal security detail. They will be able to detect a threat better than you and formulate a proper and lawful response to prevent you from being harmed. You may not need a firearm for protection if you have your R2D2 as your wingman. Dads will be sending them along on dates with their daughters!
So based on the video I suspect the actions are predefined and only tiny adjustments are made on the fly. The "real time responses" are concerning to spoken answers, which is just an openAI interface with text-to-speech included. The actual difficult thing is to build a robot that can perform novel tasts without any prior configurement towards these specific actions. Which as far as I can tell they are not doing, and are hiding this behind their spoken responses, which are spontaneous.
Exactly: it seems like they build a robot with a switch that you can flip to make it do a small set of predefined tasks. And they connected that switch to ChatGPT because it's the hot new thing in town (even though it's probably easier to just touch a button)

Boston Dynamics robots are 100% being built for military use.

Heh why did it delete my post just pointing out Boston dynamics is making its robots for military use?
Conveniently brushes over the quote regarding that attrition rates are still high. The thing is corporations don't want to solve that by paying a fair wage. What corporations want are slaves. Thats basically what a robot becomes. The other issue that isn't addressed is that in a free labour market, its impossible to be priced competitively with slaves, so there will be a further erosion of wages.
By providing a fair wage as you say, companies have to price their product out of business. People are not going to pay $20 for a McDonald's hamburger because of high wage costs. Enter the robot. Replaces the whiny human, doesn't complain about pronouns and doesn't get their feelings hurt. Probably makes a better product at less cost to the consumer.
@@TheMpsmith except burgers almost cost $20 these days and people still pay it. Unfortunately even if the business labour was automated, you wont see prices fall. They just keep the margin as profit.
@TheMpsmith we the consumer will be paying for the robots lol. The price will go up to 25 but now you get a robot to talk to
That's a good argument, but if suddenly one of the most costly aspects of your business are made into a one time charge then you could simply offer a lot more money and benefits to incentivise people to take those un-automated positions. That is, assuming corpo rats wouldn't just automate everything. At that point, the problem becomes capitalism, and I don't see any existing alternative that could ensure personal freedom and liberty in our very new world. Maybe it's time to start brainstorming a new economic system entirely.
Robot is coined from the word Robot-nick, must be a Croatian word for slave 😂
The micro adjustment Figure01 made to the drying rack at the end of its demonstration (to maybe settle the wobbling plate?) was eerily humanlike. If it isn't being controlled, that's just wild.
The thing that everyone is missing is that the robot depicted in the Jetson's is a balancing bot, the maker of the cartoon have to be given kudos for that, although I think that was a bit of a meme at the time, and it was obviously done for comedic effect.

true@@juicegod777, real life is probably gonna be much more mundane but also much worse than a robot uprising. Most people will lose their jobs, Billionaires will lobby behind the scenes to stop any kind of universal basic income, millions will be pushed into hunger and poverty, the middle class will be completely erroded, and we will basically go back to a feudal lords system where we have to beg to be allowed to live our lives.

The latest Boston Dynamics robot is incredible, 360 motion in upper body and head and not many noticed but at the end it walked off faster than any bot I've seen, that thing looks ready.
Companies replace workers with robots -> people become unemployed, lose housing, can’t afford to spend money -> economy slows down -> factory robots standing there idle because of lack of consumer demand -> more people laid off because companies aren’t willing to sacrifice profits -> repeat ad nauseam
This. They can replace humans with robots but there will be no customers because people don't have jobs. The economy will simply die. Sure, robots don't need breaks, vacations, or rest but they don't spend money as well.
Welcome to more leftist dystopia..
Thats why people would be paid a universal basic income to stimulate the economy
Universal basic income sounds great or should I say you would be paid just enough to keep your heart beating but not enough so that you can be capable enough or high enough to challenge the upper society and be stuck in the shackles of poverty.

Ya, the terrifying part isn't just the job replacement (though that is a major issue), it's the fact that if they all wind up using OpenAI, then all of these humanoid robots will share the exact same bias that the OpenAI engineers put into their programming. I'd be much happier if the core code of the learning model was shared between companies, but each company did their own AI learning/training - create some competition and variation in perspectives instead of all robots sharing the worldview of your typical San Francisco tech engineer.
They don't commute from SF any more, there was a mass tech bro exodus during the pandemic. The city is still a ghost town and self-driving cars have replaced the Google buses and electric scooters.
@@oberpenneraffe I realize that, but at least this video made it seem like OpenAI was the tool getting selected by these major robotics manufacturers so far. It may well be the best tool for the job at the moment, but it would concern me if all robotics companies wound up using the same AI especially if they are all just linking to the same AI network - no independent AI training or learning, just all robots sharing the exact same answers and reasoning on all things.
So the robots would vote for Trump?
I'd rather have a robot sharing the world view of an engineer rather than souless business people or polititians. Imagine muslim-bot.
I would be more worried how to pay the annual bills. Universal income could be a sort of solution. Maybe...🤔

Seems to me the more we pay lower end workers, the more expensive everything gets for everyone. Including the people that the wages were just increased for. Therefore leading to a perpetual "I'm not paid enough, raise my wages which makes things more expensive" cycle. No likey...
@@davidgesell except you are wrong. The inflation we are experiencing is supply driven, not demand driven. Now look at corporate profits vs wages over the last 30 years, and also look at asset prices vs wages over the last 30 years. See any similarities?

My former boss, didn’t even pay people their last check, everyone in the office got screwed over, and we were considered one of the top media companies in Northeast America, we actually got awards, then boom, out in an instant. He didn’t even finish testing the ai system, they attempted to get contract work after screwing everyone who was working there. He didn’t realize how much he actually needed 3D animations, and renders, but I refuse to work for him. I’m currently suing him for withholding pay, and I don’t think I’m the only one.
And not a business of the government.😅
The US government is funded and owned by these corps … “sponsored “.
I think they will because otherwise they'll lose a lot of tax money.
I'm sorry, but it looks like you gave me a burger without any meat. Could you please add the meat to it? MC Robot : I'm Sorry Dave, I'm Afraid I Can't Do That
No, add meat to the burger MC Robot: Okay Dave, I see some meat I can add to the burger... *reaches for knife
Great video, as always!
I believe that these companies would offer people to “rent” a robot to work for them in warehouses, so you can have your robot or robots work for you and for them simultaneously, I’m up for it as far as it’s affordable
This is already happening since forever. Except that the rented object isn't a humanoid machine.
1. go into robotics 2. take ai opensource code for image processing, robot movement processing etc. 3. create personal terminators and train them in isaac sim or some other sim software. 4. add guns 5. set up patrol mode 6. shoplift as much as you can or buy (since you can afford a terminator) alot of long expiration date food + water, and make a bunker at your house. If possible set up raincatchers 7. wait for shit to hit the fan, and enjoy seeing reddit on fire while your personal terminators are already prepared for other terminators 8. rescue people and teach them how to reproduce terminators and fight terminators 9. fight back the assailant 10. send your father back in time to save your mom from being killed by a terminator sent from the future 11. send your terminator back in time to save your past self from being killed by a newer model terminator sent from the future 12. ...wait, ive seen this before
😂
Just note that at the same moment, a new kind of GPU called Groq LPU got released, optimizing throughput and allowing to only have a single second of delay, allowing the model to generate on the fly at the middle of a conversation.
I’ll take a look into it. Sound interesting!

Matthew Berman had a good interview as introduction
good catch! yes, speed is all you really need and you'd have thinking fast enough
It wasn't that many years ago that I recall hearing so-called experts say that a walking robot was almost impossible to build because of the complexity involved in the action of bipedal walking. So, from what I can see, figure is doing a pretty good job. And let's remember this is only the first version of this robot.
“It all started when”. Sounds like a classic science fiction story.
Those who took such glee at the artists being replaced may start to worry now. Nobody is safe from automation.
Except the truckers. Everyone has been saying the truckers will be the first to be replaced in the next ten years, since the early 2000s. According to Murphy's Law, the trackers should be the last to get automated - if ever. Sidenote - were artists actually replaced by AI? Does anyone here knows of an artist/department replaced by AI? I guess a lot of devian art foot/furry fetish freelancers lost revenue - but I don't have confirmation one way or another.
Not even blue collar workers are safe from AI now, makes me really wonder what this all will affect the future of humanity
I suggest you study some history, the only reason you even have the device to write your comment with is thanks to the boom in automation unlocked by the industrial revolution. The only people who will loose their jobs are the lazy. Everyone else will find that they are now far more valuable.
@@jeronimo196well fiver artists had a very very huge loss
It's not about jobs, it's about frequently repeated tasks which can be automated. Now how long this will be the case is to be seen of course.
Thanks for showing a very clear overview of what is going on at the moment and possible future. I will share this with people, less up to date on this subject. Personally I think the biggest challenge is the ‘being kind or not’. We will teach them what we want to do and show ‘them’ development, but also destruction.. and ‘they’ are quite strong 😅
so good, thanks mate!
I wouldn’t start worrying too much about losing your jobs yet. Remember that robots replacing humans has been a thing for years now, even in sectors that we already THOUGHT couldn’t be taken by a robot. But here’s the thing. You can cut the wages of a human worker, you can stagnate their pay, and you can cut down who is needed. But you can’t do that with a machine. You still have to pay the supplier for routine maintenance and THAT company will increase their prices the same as any other company is now. Most areas of industry that don’t automate all of what they could are the industries that realized they can’t escape the labor transit value for their profit motive.
All it needs is for the cost, to be below the minimum wage. After that, either the minimum wage itself is lowered or gone, just like that.
But they'll only offer part-time minimum wage@@marchingham
Also: good luck finding someone able to afford the goods you're producing when everyone is broke and has no job
Not my job but my kids job for sure
@@marchingham People need the ability to afford housing. Stick around and watch how this plays out.
The robot price will be insignificant in a high use scenario. The maintenance will be insane. The service contracts will be real cost
i mean, presumably, as prices drop and data from real-life testing and work scenarios will allow these companies to optimize several aspects of each model, including making parts modular so if your robot has a damaged limb or something, it can be replaced. i assume the worst thing will be if the computer takes damage, which you would probably have to send it to the manufacturer for maintenance, much like a car. in the future though, it will likely just be cheaper to buy a new one.
It will be worth it to Jeff bezos type because replacing human labourers is their ultimate goal. Even if it costs more in the short run not having to ever pay healthcare or inflation adjusted union wages will save them much more.
eventually there will be robots doing the maintenance on the other robots and the maintenance robots can maintenance themselves, which will make humans completely irrelevant.
Good point. Should switch to robot maintenance.
At some point the robots will repair the robots, and further along at some point the robots will just recycle.
Can't wait for the headlines to say "military grade AI"
Another great video by you
Well my interest in armor piercing ammo just peaked.
with the new nvidia gpu, a terminator within nano seconds will spot you with its cameras, rotate to you and shoot a machine gun, before your brain can even finish proccesing the thought "fuck i'm cooked", the only real countermeasure would be tanks i guess, mines,grenades and tons of luck that the terminator isnt in a tank too

DUDE THERE IS NO GLOBAL LABOR SHORTAGE 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Do you want to work in an Amazon warehouse? There is a huge labour shortage for the garbage jobs that no one wants. Also doctors and teachers, we need way more of those. But go ahead and keep telling the world what it needs and has, I'm sure you know best.
@@megacandid8789still a problem made by authorities. if education was more accessible and affordable, more people would be able to enter these kind of jobs.
Oh because you're an expert.
@@megacandid8789 There's only a shortage for those warehouse jobs because the working conditions are bad and the pay is shit. Did you notice they mentioned they would be out of warehouse workers soon? It's not because people don't work the jobs, its because their turnover is so high, they will have literally hired everyone and fired everyone that would have even been willing to do the job. There were reports not long ago of Amazon exhausting entire towns/cities of people willing to work for them. But I'm sure you will respond with some garbage like "that's all the position deserves." Well if it requires 40 hours per week to get done, it sure sounds like you need workers to do the job full time, so maybe they should be treated better. If the job is so "garbage" then maybe it should pay more and not less...? Or do you not believe in supply and demand? Or are you one of those people who think the law of supply and demand only applies to output products and not labor inputs? This is 101, literally.
This will cause social revolution.
being physically disabled sucks, I truly hope robots can make my old years much easier to live, doing laundry, mopping floors, washing dishes is incredibly hard with Ankylosing Spondilitis, shoveling snow is a death march for me, shoveling the driveway from that storm last week left me obliterated for 7 days.

Just to be sure... I'm going to go ahead and preorder a modern day deployment of the 90s blotto box (neighbored wide emp box)
Did that robot just say "uh" and "like"?
That's what I heard, small pauses like that make me wonder if it's an attempt to make it seem more natural or if there actually was some guy with a microphone reading lines for this demo
@@ruebenaragon493 From the actual channel. They said they do that to give the Robot more time to think... basically just like how we people do it. Robots are now saying Uhm like Humans to give themselves more time to think.
@pilotman9819 yeah I made this comment pretty much immediately after I heard the robot in the first part of the demo. Then later in the video he explains chatGPT was already experimenting with theses pauses/breathes/stutters to appear more natural and how it was only a matter of time before it appeared in an AI robot, so it does appear to be an attempt at more natural speech patterns
@@ruebenaragon493 Exactly and its pretty ingenius too. Like yeah, we people stutter and make pauses to think. Giving AI that ability won't only give us more precise answers but also gives them time to think midsentence which is just wow.
it's the small pauses to 'breathe' that are creepy
Ppl still haven’t put together the fact that EVERY SINGLE JOB will be taken over by robots/AI. Unless you’re rich you’re screwed.
they need an introduction to Murphy's Law and see their ego shattered

I climb cell phone towers. There's zero possibility that a robot is taking my job. Let alone most construction jobs. They're simply to complex with to many variables changing day by day

"Relax into your docking station" Yes sir!
The video has reminded me of Honda ASIMO Humanoid project which they later cancelled , I guess the timing wasn't right because the technology didn't exist yet. Love your videos
It's quite remarkable how Figure01 passes the apple to its other "hand" that is closer to the man in the video, instead of just trying to give him the apple with the "hand" that picked it up. It's similar to what a human would do.
Its cool and all, but I will believe it when Figure makes a live stream with audience suggestions
2:56 "as we FIGURE out the future of robotics" Nice
"unlike humans, robots don't need to take a break, sleep, go on holidays, strike .." do they need maintenance or is that automated during work hours? may be backup robots...this is crazy!!!
9:00 thing is, if every corner has an emergency response robot or even if your own robot is emergency response capable, those 9 seconds are a monumental improvement over waiting for 15 minutes for an ambulance...
Imagine a thousand robots each learning one different task. They connect and talk to each other; Boom! You have a thousand robots each capable of a thousand different tasks. I am 65 years old and have dreamed of this day all my life. But now I'm a bit scared. They'll either have to figure out a way to keep money in our pockets so we can consume, or just allow the next big event to wipe most of us out. The first option requires action, the second will only require inaction. A robot burial detail will be just as happy to bury our bodies as they are to hand us an apple. They'll work tirelessly, emotionlessly, and won't stop till the job is done. Yay!
this has been possible for a very long time with normal robots. it is sad how they have brainwashed everyone into thinking the way you do about robots. the thing is, if you actually looked into deeper details of what it entails to have these robots, you'd quickly realise how expensive and useless they are when compared to humans.
@@partypooper8198it's all so utterly transparant: making the robots look like humans and talk like humans just to make investors believe they've finally found the ultimate slave to exploit. It would make no sense to give them legs and a torso and voice-control if the actual goal of creating them was to build cars: for that you need an arm that does a specific task.
This is the beauty of robots and the ai tech. You just need one robot to learn the task once and instantly all that data can be transfered to 10,000 other robots. Imagine having to teach 10,000 humans to do the job. The exponential nature of ai learning cannot be fully understood and comprehended by the human brain, we don't work that way.
@@graytoby1 The hivemind is a simple concept to grasp. everything considered.
@@fus132 the concept is simple but it dosnt exist in nature and doesn't occur naturally. Making it a difficult concept to fully understand and relate to for a human.
I'm interested to see how the 1-year maintenance costs for a mobile android-type robot will compare to a traditional workforce. Bot-Doctor is gonna be a new job title! The only thing that doesn't really make sense for a warehouse-style job is the complexity needed for bipedal ambulation. Wheels are a lot less complex, and balance is less difficult to adjust for. In a single-level warehouse or one with ramps, I'd expect tripedal bots, or essentially a centaur-style robot torso on a package carrying cart. Tools are most efficient when built for the task required, so I expect that once the robots become widely adopted by industry, the forms will vary greatly from what authors like Philip K. Dick thought of
The biggest problem and the most scary thing, is that they are stronger than humans, don't feel pain, can't get hurt or lose balance, and can force their way to charge themselves from any power outlet.
Damn last time I was this early the door was still locked
I was still not entirely sure whether human society needed Universal Basic Income prior to watching this video. Now I'm 100% certain that, with the way things are going, Universal Basic Income will become a necessity in the future, particularly in advanced countries where robots have replaced most human labour.
It's going to have to be (or something similar). When 50-75% (or more) of the population are simply no longer employable, something's gotta give.
Something our kids, 21 and younger have to worry about. AI robots, will be very expensive to completely to make overnight transition. These fine tuned robots will be used in space. Mining LUNA AND MARS and creating habitats AND ROAD structures. Robots can work in the vacuum/void, or different atmospheres.
@@prirush8800 not really if you count how much savings they bring, they said it cost $250.000, thats a couple of years to repay for itself and thats just the first model, in 5 years will cost 1 / 10 of that price.
