227<p class="wp-block-paragraph">But YouTube will not let me upload things longer than 15mins to start with so going to cut it into two parts. Might even try to keep all blog post less than 15 mins but we know how hard that might be to keep.</p>

234
235<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Hello</p>
236
237
238
239<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome to the first instalment of Everything Eventually will be FREE.</p>
240
241
242
243<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We are currently in the era where Chat GPT is the thing that threatens to steal our jobs.</p>
244
245
246
247<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is only the latest in a long list of things that replaces our jobs.</p>
248
249
250
251<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So far these advancements have started new industries and created as many jobs as they have replaced.</p>
252
253
254
255<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There are many people that will tell you this new era of Artificial Intelligence will be the same.</p>
256
257
258
259<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Though, if we do manage to make a machine that can perform tasks as well as a human, with as good a sense of the world, and enough intelligence to do the task.</p>
260
261
262
263<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Well. Then I think it’s quite plausible that one day all jobs will be done by robots or computers.</p>
264
265
266
267<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When that happens the cost of making most things could drop to zero.</p>
268
269
270
271<p class="wp-block-paragraph">To start with lets get one thing out of the way.</p>
272
273
274
275<p class="wp-block-paragraph">No, despite the title, not everything will be free.</p>
276
277
278
279<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There will always be things that are scarce, rare or unique in ways that will make them desirable and valuable.</p>
280
281
282
283<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I will explore this more in later episodes.</p>
284
285
286
287<p class="wp-block-paragraph">To start with I’ll concentrate on the things that are likely to be automated, and how that will effect the world.</p>
288
289
290
291<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I do think, most everyday things we need could become free, and we will eventually be able to live without spending any money.</p>
292
293
294
295<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Though there is likely to be some sort of credit system which I’ll also explore more in later episodes.</p>
296
297
298
299<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The other thing to clear up is that I’m not putting a time frame on this.<br>It could take 10 years, 100 years or thousands of years to get to a fully automated world where everything is free.</p>
300
301
302
303<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So I am not going to spend much time predicting when this could happen.<br>Instead I’ll be exploring the ‘how and why’ it might happen.</p>
304
305
306
307<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As well as looking at some of the potential pitfalls and benefits we may encounter along the way.</p>
308
309
310
311<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I feel that all the technology needed to make this happen, is starting to fall into place, and we are on the verge of a revolution.</p>
312
313
314
315<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Part 1: How everything becomes free.</p>
316
317
318
319<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Most of the costs in life come, from paying humans for their labour, in one way or another.</p>
320
321
322
323<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Artificial Intelligent systems like Chat GPT replace jobs by reducing the number of hours of labour needed to complete a task.</p>
324
325
326
327<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Machinery and automation have been replacing jobs in a similar way for a long time.</p>
328
329
330
331<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Like a worker with an electric screwdriver will secure a screw in a block of wood much quicker than someone using a normal screwdriver.</p>
332
333
334
335<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I think a lot of the current hysteria is because the Chat GPT type systems are replacing human hours, in well paid jobs. A lot in the media where the people with the biggest megaphones work.</p>
336
337
338
339<p class="wp-block-paragraph">To me the current predictive Artificial Intelligence is just better softw
339are running on better computers.</p>
340
341
342
343<p class="wp-block-paragraph">They are the office equivalent to the barcode revolution in large shops.</p>
344
345
346
347<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Before the scanners and barcodes arrived in shops you would have many more people working in retail.</p>
348
349
350
351<p class="wp-block-paragraph">After they were introduced the shopping experience has just continued to be more automated.</p>
352
353
354
355<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Nowadays you can buy something online and have that item shipped to your front door. This reduces the number of staff needed to almost it’s minimum.</p>
356
357
358
359<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It’s hard to get people concerned about the loss of a load of low paid workers. Unless you are directly impacted.</p>
360
361
362
363<p class="wp-block-paragraph">But, when it starts happening to the jobs that give people a lot of disposable income. Then it seems like a different story.</p>
364
365
366
367<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In both cases you lose jobs because of efficiency. A job that takes a tenth of the time to do with machinery, means one person can do the same work as 10 people used to do.</p>
368
369
370
371<p class="wp-block-paragraph">To get to a point where everything will be free, we have to create a fully automated world.</p>
372
373
374
375<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Where computers and machines can replace all jobs.</p>
376
377
378
379<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Just removing the cost of human labour, and the buildings they work in. This would remove a large chunk of the cost of any product or service.</p>
380
381
382
383<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Think of a product and how much of it’s cost is paying someone to mine or gather all the raw materials needed.</p>
384
385
386
387<p class="wp-block-paragraph">People to refine or process the materials.</p>
388
389
390
391<p class="wp-block-paragraph">To assemble the product.</p>
392
393
394
395<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Pack and deliver it.</p>
396
397
398
399<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Then all the people needed to move things from one place to another.</p>
400
401
402
403<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Then the cost of all the buildings needed.</p>
404
405
406
407<p class="wp-block-paragraph">People needed to service and supply these buildings.</p>
408
409
410
411<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The people to maintain all this.</p>
412
413
414
415<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is where most of our ‘costs’ come from, it’s the cost of the humans that put in the labour needed to keep the system going.</p>
416
417
418
419<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The cost savings from the few decades around the millennium has mostly come from the manual labour savings.<br>Mass production automation, barcode scanners, electric screwdrivers and the like.</p>
420
421
422
423<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As computers have got better this automation has started to streamline more of the office jobs.</p>
424
425
426
427<p class="wp-block-paragraph">What happens if we automate all the jobs that make most of the money?</p>
428
429
430
431<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It used to take almost the whole output of the world’s human labour just to keep us alive, fed, clothed and with a place to shelter.</p>
432
433
434
435<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Throughout modern history we have increased productivity by using tools and machinery.</p>
436
437
438
439<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Things like an axe, windmills, electric drills, pipes, elevators, computers, cranes and many more.</p>
440
441
442
443<p class="wp-block-paragraph">These sort of things, have saved us humans many hours of labour.</p>
444
445
446
447<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Each time needing fewer people to complete the basic tasks that sustain our lifestyles.</p>
448
449
450
451<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We already have a world where some jobs are now fully replaced with either machines, computers or both.</p>
452
453
454
455<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Each year there are advancements in computers and machinery that makes automating more tasks cost effective and productive enough to replace humans.</p>
456
457
458
459<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If we carry on in this way then ultimately we will get to a point where either we hit a wall and can’t increase automation any further.</p>
460
461
462
463<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Or we end up automating everything.</p>
464
465
466
467<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Just like politicians will tell you a new business is good for the region because it will create jobs beyond the direct employment of their staff.</p>
468
469
470
471<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Like wise the automation of an industry will destroy more jobs than the direct ones involved.</p>
472
473
474
475<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For example self driving trucks could cause truck stops to close down as well as a local business that sold things to their customers.</p>
476
477
478
479<p class="wp-block-paragraph">At the moment it seems we are automating more and more each year. There does not seem to be any signs of it slowing down or hitting any wall we can’t pass.</p>
480
481
482
483<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If anything it seems we are finding complex automation increasingly easy as technology advances.</p>
484
485
486
487<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you could make a physical product, where the first time a human is needed, will be when the customer picks it up off the floor of their home.</p>
488
489
490
491<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Then that physical product could be made for almost no cost.</p>
492
493
494
495<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I will go into this in more depth in later episodes but if you have full automation for everything from gathering the resources needed to processing them.</p>
496
497
498
499<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From making the item to shipping it.</p>
500
501
502
503<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Along with all the machinery needed to do this being made and maintained by robots.</p>
504
505
506
507<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Then once you have recouped the cost of setting up the initial system, everything after that is pure profit.</p>
508
509
510
511<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This would also mean the cost of living could also take a drastic drop in price.</p>
512
513
514
515<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We could move from a price dominated economy to a resource based economy. Where it’s more about making sure we manage the resources at out disposal than keeping everyone employed.</p>
516
517
518
519<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So basically once you have automated every part of production, we could care more about managing resources than production.</p>
520
521
522
523<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Maybe at the expense of profit.</p>
524
525
526
527<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Maybe something like the circular economy could come into effect along with a credit system to stop overconsumption.</p>
528
529
530
531<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Part 2: What we need to achieve zero cost automation.</p>
532
533
534
535<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There are a few things that help make automating everything cheap enough, fast enough and productive enough to replace a human.</p>
536
537
538
539<p class="wp-block-paragraph">First is renewable and abundant energy, in this day and age that means electricity.</p>
540
541
542
543<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We already have ways to make clean cheap electricity with wind and s
543olar.</p>
544
545
546
547<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So it’s not to big a leap to get to a point where most things can be powered by cheap abundant renewable energy and whichever storage solution wins out.</p>
548
549
550
551<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Motors play a big part in automation.</p>
552
553
554
555<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From driving conveyor belts to turning a drill bit. As soon as they are fast enough, durable enough, and cheap enough, then they have replaced physical labour.</p>
556
557
558
559<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A robot is mostly just a combination of electric motors and computers.</p>
560
561
562
563<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Over the last few decades motors have improved vastly. Improving in speed, torque and efficiency.</p>
564
565
566
567<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There seem less and less tasks they can’t do each year and getting close to being as dexterous as a human in most tasks.</p>
568
569
570
571<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Next up is sensors.</p>
572
573
574
575<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Automation is limited if it can’t monitor it&#8217;s surroundings.</p>
576
577
578
579<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From lasers that count units produced in a production line, to cameras that provide a visual image of an object.</p>
580
581
582
583<p class="wp-block-paragraph">These really help you automate in an imperfect world, pick up potential problems and keep track of complex systems.</p>
584
585
586
587<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As with motors, these have improved a lot in the last few decades especially in things like object recognition and environmental monitoring.</p>
588
589
590
591<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Almost goes without saying that computers are quite handy too, and doubt I need to state how much they have improved over the last few decades.</p>
592
593
594
595<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From processing the sensor’s data to controlling the motors.</p>
596
597
598
599<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It’s the computers that makes automated systems all tick along nicely and deal with any problems.</p>
600
601
602
603<p class="wp-block-paragraph">They also run the artificial intelligence software that will control complex systems like self driving cars.</p>
604
605
606
607<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So to get to full automation, we mostly just need something that is at least as good as a human, and ideally something much better.</p>
608
609
610
611<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Things like optical circuits that can detect objects as well as a human. Or robotic arms that can pick up and manipulate objects, as well as your average worker.</p>
612
613
614
615<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As soon as they can perform as well as a human or better then they will start to take over human labour as the cost of the system becomes cheap enough.</p>
616
617
618
619<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The hardest things seems to have been recognising objects in a timely fashion or moving motors fast enough and precisely enough to do some complex tasks as well as a human can.</p>
620
621
622
623<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Once we have got the speed, accuracy and dexterity right then an automated system will get cheaper and become more and more common.</p>
624
625
626
627<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As soon as a task can be done by automation for less than a low paid worker cost for a few years work. Then that job will become redundant.</p>
628
629
630
631<p class="wp-block-paragraph">One of the common example tasks factory humanoid robots is shown completing is taking products off a conveyor belt and storing or packing them.</p>
632
633
634
635<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is quite a surprisingly hard task for a machine but simple for a human.</p>
636
637
638
639<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You might need to compensate for a unevenly distributed weight.</p>
640
641
642
643<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Need good object recognition skills.</p>
644
645
646
647<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Need to be able to plan where to move and deal with the unexpected.</p>
648
649
650
651<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We are starting to crack this problem and do it about the speed of a human.</p>
652
653
654
655<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Obviously one of the big advantages is, the machines don’t need breaks or to be paid.</p>
656
657
658
659<p class="wp-block-paragraph">But the real advantage would come if we can get them so good you can speed up that conveyor belt and double throughput.</p>
660
661
662
663<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For each of these problems that are preventing full automation there is dozens of companies working on solving each problem.</p>
664
665
666
667<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Part 3: How far along the fully automated path are we now?</p>
668
669
670
671<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I think most people would be surprised by how much automation they encounter every day. Most of it seems so mundane that we take it for granted.</p>
672
673
674
675<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From washing machines cleaning your clothes to traffic lights changing on a schedule.</p>
676
677
678
679<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Elevators stopping at the right floor to automated sprinkler systems. There is already a lot of human labour that has been replaced.</p>
680
681
682
683<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There used to be wash houses full of people washing clothes.</p>
684
685
686
687<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Traffic police that directed traffic.</p>
688
689
690
691<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Elevator operators and gardeners that did jobs that have been replaced by automation.</p>
692
693
694
695<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There is a saying which goes along the lines of:</p>
696
697
698
699<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As soon as something is automated, then people stop thinking of that being part of the automation system.</p>
700
701
702
703<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Which means, people think of automation being things like robots that mimic human task, rather than machines that perform a part of a task.</p>
704
705
706
707<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you had a factory worker that wanted to remove all this pesky automated stuff that is taking their jobs.</p>
708
709
710
711<p class="wp-block-paragraph">They probably would not want to walk up fourteen floors to where they parked their car in a multi story car park.</p>
712
713
714
715<p class="wp-block-paragraph">They would exclude something like an elevator from their list of automated things they want to replace.</p>
716
717
718
719<p class="wp-block-paragraph">One of the big challenges in complex automation has been speed.</p>
720
721
722
723<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Whether it’s reaction time when the unexpected happens.</p>
724
725
726
727<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Or how fast a task can be completed compared to a human doing it.</p>
728
729
730
731<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is most obvious in one of the hardest tasks to automate.</p>
732
733
734
735<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Self driving vehicles.</p>
736
737
738
739<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For this task the challenge is to do the right thing in a very short time. Every time.</p>
740
741
742
743<p class="wp-block-paragraph">With current technology self driving works quite well at around 30 to 49 kilometres per hour speed, but there is low demand for vehicles with that sort of top speed.</p>
744
745
746
747<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is due to the time it takes to capture the world around the vehicle, map the data, detect potential dangers and plot the right cause of action.</p>
748
749
750
751<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This is why the global drive to crack the self driving problem is being tackled like the space race.</p>
752
753
754
755<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The companies and countries that crack it first, are going to be, driving in the fast lane into the next era.</p>
756
757
758
759<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In manufacturing it’s all about the whole system producing the maximum number of units.</p>
760
761
762
763<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The automated parts have to be more productive than humans doing the same task.</p>
764
765
766
767<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We certainly have more automation than 50 or 25 years ago.</p>
768
769
770
771<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We currently have mostly automated quarries and other resource gathering systems.</p>
772
773
774
775<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Processing the resources has a huge amount of automation.</p>
776
777
778
779<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Assembly and production of the finished product is again already fairly automated.</p>
780
781
782
783<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Self driving vehicles to move things around, is one of the major bottlenecks.</p>
784
785
786
787<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Creating new products used to be another but that seems to be changing now.</p>
788
789
790
791<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As to how much more automation we need to get to full automation. We will have to wait and see.</p>
792

794
795<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Over time I want to look at some of the past automation challenges and how they played out.</p>
796
797
798
799<p class="wp-block-paragraph">How they were invented, how they developed, what popularised them and how they were received.</p>
800
801
802
803<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As well as looking at the end game and what’s currently stopping us getting there.</p>
804
805

807<p class="wp-block-paragraph">
807Part 4: If everything is automated how will the world work?</p>
808
809
810
811<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“Work keeps at bay three great evils: boredom, vice, and need.” Voltaire, Candide</p>
812
813
814
815<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Universal Basic Income is often proposed as a solution to the ‘need’ part. If most people don’t work, then some sort of credit system seems likely.</p>
816
817
818
819<p class="wp-block-paragraph">An economist is likely to tell you, this will not work in practice, as it will be too expensive.</p>
820
821
822
823<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Though, they will be calculating this cost at today’s cost. That includes things like labour, building costs and even profit.</p>
824
825
826
827<p class="wp-block-paragraph">These may not really be that important in a fully automated world where all these costs will be negligible.</p>
828
829
830
831<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It’s much more likely that we will need to find a way of stopping mass over consumption and managing resources.</p>
832
833
834
835<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Universal Basic Income can make it so you don’t need to worry about basics like food, shelter and energy.</p>
836
837
838
839<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Maybe even help moderate the vice and boredom problem.</p>
840
841
842
843<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I quite like the idea that each person is given a cubic space allowance for living accommodation.</p>
844
845
846
847<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Something like, you have a minimum of 50 cubic meters per person, which will get you that size apartment somewhere.</p>
848
849
850
851<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Partner up with someone, and you can combine that allocation to a 100 cubic meter accommodation. Have a child then add another 50.</p>
852
853
854
855<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So you are guaranteed a space to live and your basics covered. Obviously there could still be disparity, in where your space is located, and the basic facilities you have near you.</p>
856
857
858
859<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Costs could also be slashed, when we adopt the circular economy, with a “reuse repair recycle” philosophy, and start making things that are durable, repairable and re-usable.</p>
860
861
862
863<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Boredom could be one of the biggest problems. We will have to relearn how to fill our days without the need to work.</p>
864
865
866
867<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Though we have more than enough movies, music, books and games to fill many lifetimes.</p>
868
869
870
871<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The old sayings of “you would not want to waste your life away watching telly all day would you?” seems less used these days. You are more likely to hear people say “I don’t have enough time to watch all the stuff I want to”.</p>
872
873
874
875<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Yet there already is a growing problem of so much choice, that some people can flick through pages of listings, and not find anything they feel like watching right now.</p>
876
877
878
879<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Maybe we learn to overcome this or maybe the world turns to violence and vice.</p>
880
881
882
883<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It seems likely that some people might want to work.</p>
884
885
886
887<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Whether it’s for artistic release, to kill time or because they like interacting with people.</p>
888
889
890
891<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There is almost likely to be some sort of extra credit system where you can give credits to others in exchange for work.</p>
892
893
894
895<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So you could still follow a career if you wanted to, most likely without the stress and pressure our current society inflicts on so many.</p>
896
897
898
899<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Or maybe we develop a different sort of wealth.</p>
900
901
902
903<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Some cultures have something like ‘a purpose in life’ that you are encouraged to discover.</p>
904
905
906
907<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We may need something like this, to make life not feel pointless.</p>
908
909
910
911<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There are lessons we can learn from history, where groups of people have not needed to work all the time.</p>
912
913
914
915<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Social gatherings, live entertainment, sporting achievements and the like all help fill up a lifetime.</p>
916
917
918
919<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Education will need to change to adapt to teach whatever life skills we need to cope with a world without work.</p>
920
921
922
923<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Considering the current education system seems designed to make good workers for business, then this is going to be a big change, and take time.</p>
924
925
926
927<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Getting the right mix of food, exercise, social and entertainment in a world without work could take time to work out.</p>
928
929
930
931<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We are adaptive creatures and I’m sure we will work it out.</p>
932
933
934
935<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Part 5: What could go wrong?</p>
936
937
938
939<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Everything I have stated so far, about the prices dropping to zero, is obviously depen
939dant there being low resistance from the people losing profits and power.</p>
940
941
942
943<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Just because something cost nothing to make, that may not stop people charging you to use or have it.</p>
944
945
946
947<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The current trend seems to be getting people to pay monthly to use something rather than to own it.</p>
948
949
950
951<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you have an apple tree then you can have apples for free every year. At least when they are in season.</p>
952
953
954
955<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For the rest of the year there will be someone selling apples you can buy, especially when there are none on the local trees.</p>
956
957
958
959<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you started a campaign to get people to plant more apple trees and only eat apples when they are in season.</p>
960
961
962
963<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I’m willing to bet some company making money from selling you apples would put a lot of money into convincing you that your better off buying apples from your usual shop.</p>
964
965
966
967<p class="wp-block-paragraph">There seem to be an ever increasing number of companies that would rather make more money, than drop the prices they charge.</p>
968
969
970
971<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The corporate thinking at the moment is you have to make more money every year.</p>
972
973
974
975<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This of course, is not sustainable, as infinite growth is never sustainable.</p>
976
977
978
979<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As these companies have more money, they then have more resources to pressure politicians into making favourable laws.</p>
980
981
982
983<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Squashing the competition by denying them access to retail establishments, or just spending huge money on advertising.</p>
984
985
986
987<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We are already seeing this in the entertainment industry as the established markets that make money from books, movies and music are fighting back against the new artificially generated content.</p>
988
989
990
991<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The people that complain the most are the ones making the most money out of the current system.</p>
992
993
994
995<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It’s yet to be seen whether the people making money, eventually pivot to replacing all human labour, to make more money off of generated content, or whether they just carry on fighting the new changes.</p>
996
997
998
999<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I guess there will be winners and losers on both sides.</p>
1000
1001
1002
1003<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So that’s the financial side of things, but there is also the boredom threat. What do we all do with all that free time?</p>
1004
1005
1006
1007<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Could social crimes like household violence, sexual assaults and gangs become a bigger problem?</p>
1008
1009
1010
1011<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Or police state like levels of control to keep people in check?</p>
1012
1013
1014
1015<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Maybe people will just appreciate human contact more and do more things together?</p>
1016
1017
1018
1019<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Maybe we get more exercise and do more social things or we become reclusive and just watch videos all day long.</p>
1020
1021
1022
1023<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Then there is the transition from the current world to the new world.</p>
1024
1025
1026
1027<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This seems very unlikely to go smoothly.</p>
1028
1029
1030
1031<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Do those with jobs and resources help those put out of work by automation or do we leave them to fend for themselves?</p>
1032
1033
1034
1035<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Do we return to the feudal times where a few mega rich people control everything and the rest survive of their handouts?</p>
1036
1037
1038
1039<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I imagine the flash point is when a few people are still needed to work but most don’t.</p>
1040
1041
1042
1043<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I can see the ones that have to work resenting the people that don’t have to work.</p>
1044
1045
1046
1047<p class="wp-block-paragraph">How much resources should people have access to?</p>
1048
1049
1050
1051<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Enough to just about survive, or more than enough to live comfortably?</p>
1052
1053
1054
1055<p class="wp-block-paragraph">How equal should we all be, especially in cultures with a strong class system. How do we police the new order?<
1055/p>
1056
1057
1058
1059<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Oh, and of course the robots could rise up against us.</p>
1060
1061
1062
1063<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I’ll dive into some of these in more details too.</p>
1064
1065
1066
1067<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So to wrap up.</p>
1068
1069
1070
1071<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Automation is nothing new.</p>
1072
1073
1074
1075<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It’s a journey we have been on for a few thousand years.</p>
1076
1077
1078
1079<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We do seem to be on the brink of technically being able to automate most tasks but will have to wait and see how long it will take to be practical.</p>
1080
1081
1082
1083<p class="wp-block-paragraph">People like change that happens ‘overnight’ but this does not happen as much as you might think. Our collective knowledge has periods of striving forwards and then periods of stagnation.</p>
1084
1085
1086
1087<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Most people alive today have only known a rapidly changing world.</p>
1088
1089
1090
1091<p class="wp-block-paragraph">At some point, maybe fairly soon, this could all come to a halt. Or at least slow down quite a bit.</p>
1092
1093
1094
1095<p class="wp-block-paragraph">What feels like impossible today could well be a solved problem in 10 years time.</p>
1096
1097
1098
1099<p class="wp-block-paragraph">While other things that seem like they could happen next year might take 500 years to happen.</p>
1100
1101
1102
1103<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The idea here is to explore what would happen if we did managed to fully automate all jobs.</p>
1104
1105
1106
1107<p class="wp-block-paragraph">How society would change, what the issues are, potential problems and possible solutions.</p>
1108
1109
1110
1111<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So why listen to me?</p>
1112
1113
1114
1115<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Well I have no agenda.</p>
1116
1117
1118
1119<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m right.</p>
1120
1121
1122
1123<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I am willing to change my mind and try not to be bias.</p>
1124
1125
1126
1127<p class="wp-block-paragraph">While being fairly well informed, I’m only a keen outside observer.</p>
1128
1129
1130
1131<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I don’t work for anyone in the automation world, and have no interest in working or investing in anyone that does.</p>
1132
1133
1134
1135<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I don’t even care about monetizing this project.</p>
1136
1137
1138
1139<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The reason I am doing this, is because I have been intrigued by the subject of automation for a while.</p>
1140
1141
1142
1143<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I love the idea of us humans never having to work again sometime in the future, and want to start a debate on the subject.</p>
1144
1145
1146
1147<p class="wp-block-paragraph">So I encourage you all to share your views on the topics I discuss, and am happy to revisit subjects if and when there is questions that need debating.</p>
1148
1149
1150
1151<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you noticed, this is read by an artificial voice.</p>
1152
1153
1154
1155<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The main reason for this is that you probably would much prefer that, than hearing me read all this out.</p>
1156
1157
1158
1159<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It also forces me to write down my thoughts so, hopefully, they are more concise than some of the people that just set the mic up and ramble on for a bit.</p>
1160
1161
1162
1163<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This also means that these will not be weekly, maybe not even monthly. They will drop &#8220;as and when&#8221; I feel they are right.</p>
1164
1165
1166
1167<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Finally I’d like to add that everything on this channel is free to use as you like.</p>
1168
1169
1170
1171<p class="wp-block-paragraph">That means you can take the text of any episode, which I’ll publish on the website.</p>
1172
1173
1174
1175<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You are free to, make your own version of this and put it up online. Or translate it into another language.</p>
1176
1177
1178
1179<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Can use as many extracts as you like. Mix it up, mash it up, as much as you like. Make changes, corrections, comments and republish. Even make money off it if you like, or can.</p>
1180
1181
1182
1183<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Just as long as you don’t try to stop anyone else doing the same to my original content.</p>
1184
1185
1186
1187<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you do your own version, then it would be lovely if you let me know, and give a link back to my original. Though you are under no obligation to do so.</p>
1188
1189
1190
1191<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Visit the website for more info and more of my thoughts on the subject.</p>
1192
1193
1194
1195<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Thank you for listening to the end.</p>
