Oh no they have to seek a job instead of just being handed one. :marseyscream:

finding some way to help others while putting food on the table should not be a herculean task or a game of chance. for thousands of years you could get a job as long as you worked hard

having to flagellate yourself just for a chance to get a meaningless do-nothing job is the ultimate humiliation of the era

You can still easily get a job as long as your work hard. Warehouse agency positions are always looking for able bodied people. You can have a job for yourself tomorrow if you really want it.

Robots with the ability to do general warehouse stuff aren't coming out until well after AGI happens. Warehouse roles will be one of the last things to ever be automated.

And yet they still need to hire large amounts of human beings for their operations. The wage cage doesn't work without a human inside it. I'm certain new and better robots will come out but there will still be warehouse roles that require humans to do them 20 years down the line (I wouldn't say the same about computer programming though).

fewer and fewer humans, is the whole point. They wouldn't spend massive $ on R&D for automation if it would not elminiate jobs. That's the whole point.

You can't just say "oh but there will still be some jobs for someone" for the majority of the population. It used to be that you could get a job as a coal miner, now it takes 3-4 men with some massive equipment to mine out the side of a mountain.

do you work in an Amazon warehouse? The high paying jobs there are robot jannies.

How does the math ever work out if you replace 10 people with 1 person jannying 10 robots? There is still a deficit of 9 jobs

What the frick are you talking about? These are wannabe tech bros and programmers bitching about not being showered with 6 figures salary job offers, not medical professionals or anything that comes close to people who help people. Having to apply for a job isn't some form of a humiliation ritual.
