Automation is a hot topic these days. There are lots of ramifications. Whether they be economic, social, or psychological the domain in which they lie is well suited to philosophical exploration.
In this super breif video I go over some recent developments that depending on your perspective are yet another step in either liberating or bankrupting the working man.
1) Number crunching and decision making will be done via algorithm. Algorithms don’t require bonuses. CEO’s will become Baristas.
2) The most hipstery Baristas will use the power of snark to become managers and tell the CEO to get the UPS driver a coffee.
3) Visual processing is difficult so all but the most mundane physical tasks will require a work force.
4) Rednecks and Mexicans will become the new elite.
5) The rest of society will fight ferociously over ad revenue from robot enhanced corporations via weapons grade cat videos.
6) Ad rvenue will run out.
7) We will all become Baristas.
