Automate forklift? like a conveyor?

Unless they are desperate, they'd still prefer less dull jobs. Desperate employees are disaster in the waiting.
> Dullness could be solved by making the tasks less dull
That's the recipe for unsafe working environments.
When was that? Or hypothetical? Why would that be and not that new jobs being created?
> actually we still don't want those shit datacenters, this wreckless scraping
Those are used by the useless things I mentioned above. I don't think you're showing the same outrage.
Did you buy from China? How were the workers who made those items treated? How did you get those items to where you live? Do you know how much pollution that would cause? (I do buy them, btw, I have no moral superiority).
Did you travel? Think about the cost it causes to society. Again, I love travel.
I don't have problems with you criticizing AI or your favorite targets of the day. I do have issues with fake morality, lacking of self reflection.

That's your projection
Did you know that 151 companies were founded by SpaceX's alumni? Compare to 5 they've acquired (not including XAI)
So you want to show off instead of doing it for yourself? find something harder to show off then.
I can hardly run 5km, but I was still immensely proud of myself whenever I did. It still brings me great joy even though I'm a mediocre runner at best.
> People still play chess and go and StarCraft
Because most people still find them enjoyable. You can't say those are less enjoyable than math. There is no universal scale for enjoyment.
> kind of like you might eat today even though you already ate yesterday
You'd die if you stop eating after yesterday's meals. That's survival.
Bad thing can certainly happen. In fact it'll likely happen. Still, good things too, equally likely. In your words, "good AI" can be used to prevent "bad AI".
Nobody knows the extent of the impact. Who says otherwise is foolish.
Falcon 9 achieved reusable 10 years ago. Other rockets have only started getting there recently. Starship is a big step forward.
Which city?
Email and phone calls are considered confidential, even though it is possible for vendors to inspect the communication. I expect AI use will be tested legally, but once precedence has been established in court it will become a common practice.
There were 17 European companies in the top 50 in 2006, 13 in 2016, 10 in 2026. Most of the remaining companies are automotive and energy (oil). None is tech. ASML isn't even in the top 100 in Europe.
Japan is the same story. There are 7 companies in the top 50 in 2006. The only remaining one in 2026 is Toyota. None is tech.
China's share has increased from 2 companies in 2006 to 12 in 2006.
In other words, China's progress and the importance of tech, along with the decline of automobile and energy accurately reflect how the global economy has changed.
(Side question: how much AI does my comment sound?)
Source: you can find plenty. Start with Fortune 500
Ha, peak HN. Everyone else is idiot.
It's Golden Dome when Google does it.
I guess it's something along the same line when Jeff Bezos does it. He does indeed plan it.
What is China's motive? why do they also need to pretend they want space data centers? [0], [1]
How about Europe's? [2]
