This is the most incredibly shortsighted and broad-strokes painting of human society I have ever seen or heard in my life. My mans washed away millennia of social hierarchies, crime, mental illness, disease, and even the very concept of human ego with “well if everyone studied hard sciences, the world would be perfect.” Rich people truly know nothing about the real world.

[@idontgiveadamn1000]

Hard science involves psychology and neuroscience right? I imagine if more people were working those fields we would make progress in identifying,treating and preventing psychological illnesses.They might then eliminate those cases alltogether ( probably not 5 years but its such a small subsection of the population that the thinking power lost from them is almost negligable so we would still make similar progress either way).As for the social hierarchy/ego points, yeah human are greedy and egotistical but we're technically capable of displaying selflessness and humility so it remains a hopeful possiblity.In anys case this is just a thought experiment so it shouldnt be taken as a serious plan of action.

[@abhayglal]

@@idontgiveadamn1000 First off psychology is not a hard science, but even if it was your point about a “negligible population” is not predicated on any facts but rather your assumptions. According to analysis published in The Lancet, over a third of the world suffers 5 or more health ailments simultaneously, while another study estimates that a fifth of the US population suffers from mental health disorders (this would actually probably be a low estimate in terms of global application given the US’ living standards). We have no idea how these ailments affect people, so the assumption that it doesn’t matter or that the rest of the world would develop even if they had no input is a stretch and not a logically sound conclusion. But let’s move on to your second point. Lets assume the health and psychological costs are “negligible” (which they are not), your point about humans “technically being capable of displaying selflessness” makes it seem like greed and selflessness are equally balanced choices that humans make. They’re not. Greed is far more common of a trait for humans to employ because ultimately it is a trait that animals are programmed to portray for survival. Without selfishness, animals do not compete to the best of their ability to keep themselves alive in a Darwinian world. Selflessness overcoming selfishness would only be theoretically possible if there was some sort of advantageous factor to selflessness that became a dominant trait, which gets me to my last reply: social hierarchies. You didn’t actually address this properly in your response, but I hope you realize the difficulty of social hierarchies isn’t just it’s social factors, but the fact that it allows money as a concept to exist. If everyone had money, and everyone was in the top 1%, basic capitalist economics says that no ONE is in the 1%. Money essentially becomes worthless at that point; it’s only value comes from manufactured scarcity and government oversight; a world where “everyone is rich” as stated in the video here means that money no longer functions the way it does right now. The solution to our poor living standards and money problems is not “studying hard sciences”. This is the mindset of engineering students with a chip on their shoulder who think they’re better than everyone because indeed.com says they’ll have the biggest salary of all their friends after graduation. The only real way to address these things, to a global audience, is to rethink how the systems themselves work and fix the problems that allow 1% of the world to own 90% of the wealth. But given the grip that governments and the wealthy have on these systems, and the resources they have to continue this gap for their own benefits, it’s unlikely.

[@jonathandavis8051]

@@abhayglal there's too much to read here given that I have ADHD, but from what I did see theres just one thing I have to say. Psychology is objectively a hard science, period. I don't know what argument you have for why you think it's not and I honestly don't think I can focus my kind for long enough to read it, but for once I don't think it matters. Psychology is a hard science based on scientific study and empirical evidence. The people that think it's not don't know what Psychology is. The people that say it's not a hard science are usually basing their information off of the internet tendency to make it into a pseudoscience. "Psychology fact!: if your boyfriend looks at his phone, he's cheating! Don't ask for sources, that's just how it is". People on the internet just make shit up and call it Psychology. That's not what Psychology is. If you try to study Psychology, the first thing youll find is that psychologist disagree with that type of "psychology" and are only interested in empirical and quantitative evidence, just a much so as a chemesist, physicist, etc. True Psychology is a hard scientist, internet Psychology is pseudoscience.

It will take a long time for that transfer to happen without massive injection of valuable raw materials. That will happen in the near future though with asteroid mining.

​ @Mark Dallen lets say there are 15.000 differens jobs in the world that'll all need to be automated, some are easy and some are extremely difficult to automate. with 7.7 billion engineers and scientists and 15.000 jobs to be automated, they could be split in teams on 500.000 people. coordination is a major issue right off the bat. all these people cant be working on the exact same thing or there will be issues. but Assuming they are able to pull it off, now we have the bigger issue. Where are we going to produce all of these things, we'd need millions of factories to manufacture all of these things. you might think; robots. but it's the same issue, we need to manufacture all the robots in order for them to work and before that, they need be designed. in short there is absolutly no way we'd be able to acomplish all of this in 5 years, not even in 50 years. and these are only a few of the issues
