RE: Will The Concept of Jobs Be Obsolete In The Future?

in #technology8 years ago (edited)

It would be a strange future for humans without employment, we would maybe lack purpose. However it could be a utopian world where all of our needs are taken care of by 'our machines'. Law and order would be automated via data banks of legal precedents, maybe a human judge would be needed to sporadically intervene. Humans could use their time for creative and leisure persuits and all of the future technological innovations could be in the hands of the AI. There was an old poem I remember from school that went something like, more machines, more machines, make more machines. That would be the reality, endless versions and iterations of the AI we initially created.

An alternative would be a dark future of forced unemployment for all where there is no incentive to strive and innovate. There would be equal sharing of the wealth equity which sounds like a bleak communist state where the robots are the regime that run the whole show.

It would certainly be a strange world regardless of if it becomes a utopian one or a dystopian world. It is also strange that this might not be that far away. We are talking at most a century from now which is not that far off. Really strange how quickly things are changing.
