How to Become Relevant when a Robot Takes Your Job | Pablos Holman | TEDxLA

[@tigadirt]

How this only has the amount of veiws it does astounds me. He covers so many different important things, all that only grow more and more prevelant with each passing year.

[@andressadev-pt-br]

when he said "learn to make robot friends" he meant to learn how to deal with technology because in the future people who will be employed will need to work with technology and those who are not "friends with it" will be unemployed. Robots will follow our instructions and if you're good at giving instructions to computers and robots you will do better in life...nobody can chage this trend so instead of going against it, join it...that's what he said... so I don't see why people think it's not related to the title.

Kinda interesting

BRILLIANT TALK! -> People First; Future of "Work"; Work 4.0

[@scottstormcarter9603]

Wow this guy said a few things I have been thinking, but never heard anyone else say

[@festermann]

Thanks - listen to this guy is not only entertaining but also very interesting in the sense that he points out things that should make us think more. Greets !

[@4yz222]

More time and people working together in creative pursuits = more innovation = better quality of life !!

I have been waiting for the insect laser zapper for years... I'm so glad that it's so much closer to my backyard than I thought it would take!

[@1A.....]

Love this talk ❤️

[@aquilavega7621]

I like the final message, that we should learn to take care of each other. In order to be able to take care of each other, we must also take care of our planet so that we as species don't get threatened to extinction levels. I fail to understand why we assume it's normal to exploit others to enrichen yourself. We must strive to a better life for each and every human. Peace, love & unity

[@chrism.1131]

people are worried about A.I. taking all of our jobs, but when we start working and living in outer space, there won't be enough people to fill all of the new jobs created. A new patent I just read about, will allow space elevators to be built with current materials. It has multiple tethers at its center ( for greatest strength ) and fewer tethers as you move away from center ( for lesser amounts of mass ). Liftport has plans to build a Lunar elevator from current material. Using that same material for an Earth based elevator would reach the lunar gravity center (about 9,000 km AGL) approx. 1/6 G. Add this new concept and you could reach Earth's surface. We can do this now. Let's get started. What do you think?

Thank you for sharing. Robot help us to solve more inner problems of humans. It is a brand new perspective for me understanding the application of automation at work. Let us be friends at Robot for they are there to make our life easy and to have more time to enjoy life. I can't wait for the day that people will have discipline and balance in using technology. I'm just like others people who felt bad that farmers lost their jobs because of industrialization not realizing how many billions of people are being fed now. It was really an amazing thoughts. We all enjoy the technology and life been easy for everyone. I guess all we have to do is to continue to stay healthy so we can live longer and to be able to see what this new version of life could be for the next generations. Keep growing together with the rapid growth of the technology😇😇😇😇

[@mohamedghostx]

i love this *smart* guy

[@tekannon]

Hi, Robots aren't going to take our jobs, break our lives and leave us twiddling our thumbs. They'll do what we did and then it's all into the unknown. However, there will always be work that needs to be done by people. We are going to discover work is like knowledge; the more work one does, the more undiscovered work there will be available for us to do. Robots will change the landscape of limitations we call our present reality and widen the horizon. Photography did not make artists doing oil painting or drawings redundant; it freed artists to explore new realms. 3D printing won't make sculptors redundant; it will free them to explore other levels. Robots and A.I. are going to test us, frustrate us and it will take a lot of trial and error to find our way, but in the end we are going to enjoy the challenge. The only advice is this: get ready for it and get set for a great experience.

[@benderthefourth3445]

It's incredible how the world is exactly going into Jack Fresco's view and project design. And he was telling this stuff 40 years ago! Now there are tons of scientists, futurists , etc saying the same thing in the meantime Fresco is poorly recognized.

[@BtkSabora]

it will give humanity the time to think and invent or fix world issues ...the first step is energy after that is fixed the rest of our issues can be solved after ..but really people don't work together to solve these issues or have enough of a true voice

[@grafis6868]

Amazing talk

[@ibuprofenPill]

If a robot takes your job, just get a job building robots.

[@zapspiders92]

Summary: Tech is cool and solves problems. Learn to make robot friends. Nothing related to the title.

[@chomu_png]

zapspiders92 (but we still have no jobs)

[@DeusExRequiem]

The final statement is to spend your time trying to solve uniquely human problems, rather than struggle to keep the problems we just got rid of so you can keep your job. It's a good way to stay relevant instead of, you know, complaining about losing a transportation job until the end of your retirement.

[@tigadirt]

actually id say you missed the entire point of the video zapspiders92. the point is that as technology gets better at taking care of the lower half of the pyramid of human needs we can start getting involved with creating technology and careers for the upper half. also that we can be doing more to spread the technology of the lower half of the pyramid to the further behind parts of the world

[@drditup]

Correction: Tech solves SOME problems. Humans stay relevant by solving OTHER problems. 100% related to the title.

[@obviouslydead9027]

You are time saver. Bless you

[@nicholasmanley511]

Have they considered reforestation of desert areas? very little lives in the Sahara, but turning it green could effectively stabilize the climate

[@bornintoacorruptsystem9to5]

I honestly think robots will make life better for us give it a chance

[@bornintoacorruptsystem9to5]

Money should be obsolete

[@AssasinZer00]

yeah, robots will be the only things that can comprehend the never-ending changes our species endures.

[@joe_limon]

In a currency free world, how would we distribute wealth? How would we say who can get a new cell phone, or car or live on the coast in a Mansion?

[@bornintoacorruptsystem9to5]

[@aenorist2431]

Look up the control Problem. Its unsolvable. AI is both inevitable and inevitably gonna destroy our species ... the only relevant thing is having a fun time between post-scarcity and post-homo sapiens. And hoping they don´t coincide.

[@evanreakes]

I want to give more than I take. Easy to visualize, hard to implement.

[@TakaImprezka]

Great speech, but I don't think people who're going to lose jobs to robots in near future are the types watching TEDx talks :)

[@antediluvianspy5371]

TakaImprezka If you look at these comments half of them are about what he's wearing. People watch these videos to feel like they're smarter than they are (including myself.) Honestly robots won't be taking a whole lot of jobs, the way AI is developing they are becoming pets and slaves to the wealthy. There are some exceptions but we don't really have slaves any more and there are unions for most factory workers. I think everything will be okay.

[@trebombs4life]

dude starts working for bill gates and starts talking : huge population, geoengineering and vaccines. dude use to talk about hacking.

[@malirabbit6228]

My son and I were talking about this topic a couple of days ago. We had no answers or solutions.

[@TheFingerlady]

If you have widespread automated robots and no one has work, then ppl are out of work and money. The problem the rich have is that people still need money to buy all the crap they produce. The only solution to this is to guarantee a basic income.

[@aenorist2431]

In that case, money is long irrelevant. The rich would hand out money, than trade out the money for the goods, to hand the money back out again. Its post-scarcity, thus post-capitalism.

[@TheFingerlady]

Ae Norist ... the fed has been printing money out of thin air for years.

[@aenorist2431]

Thats an entirely unrelated statement, true, and betraying (inferring from tone) your poor understanding of the (abhorrent, but well defined) mechanics of capitalism. "Printing money from thin air" is a thing "the fed" can reasonably do, both elgally and economically.

[@migalorsdarwin1930]

The solution could also be killing every useless human.

[@chomu_png]

D Leader if no one has work then moneynis going to be useless and then the whole concept of rich and poor is going to fall apart. basic income is only useful if money is useful but automation will destroy the use of money

[@jerrysedlacek6354]

About every 7-8 years for the past 30 years, I have been put out of work and had to change jobs because of technology.

Who is here after Git Copilot announced lol

[@fidgetyrock4420]

Im already training my own neural network to recognize 20 000 pictures of my favourite game.. Ill make som networks to download millions of images and words from internet too:) it easy anyone can do it... then you can install it into a robot or whatever, and get a friend who knows all about your interests... Yes I do have friends but mostly they love stuff I dont care about

[@noahway13]

Uh, when robot takes your job, u go back down to the bottom of the pyramid.

[@skoky76]

JustKeith Lol. But good deduction, actually 😀.

[@pabloi2735]

Sad but true.

[@diogosesimbra]

Not if we actually use the technology as we should. Let them (robots) do the work and let us keep the goods and services produced. Currently we are very far away from that but I think that should be the goal.

[@fidgetyrock4420]

yeah Im already designing a AI to automatically apply for human jobs for me 24/7 year round.. Ill probably make a few ais to work a few human jobs online for me too, and of course create an AI to charm women online and not give me info about her until the ai has charmed her into wanting to meet me immediately, so I have thousands of women ready right now for me.. spares me alot of trouble..Ill just teach it positive awards that women like to hear realistically... I mean you gotta be pretty small minded to not like AI.. There is TONS of tech jobs online that can be done by a home made AI better than you can ever do.. web design, web programming, just teach it human like arts, and force it to read 1000 programming books.. You can even learn it to recognize how to improve your own intelligence, feeding you only the best books for your brain to learn. Eventually as Elon musk said it will design a network that can be hooked safely into your body or brain

[@jdbrown371]

You could become one of those freaky weird Walmart shoppers until robots replace even them.

[@circusboy90210]

You're forgetting one other thing people have to want These Robot's work for them. Is not automatically going to happen. People will choose businesses they don't put people out of work .People will choose products that were made by hand which are far superior than any robot can make

[@balaji-kartha]

wow!

[@malirabbit6228]

My son and I were talking about this very topic a couple days ago. We had no answers.

[@AssasinZer00]

The answer lies within the question, your job will most likely not be replaced by robots anytime soon, but your job is a huge factor in that probability. If i went and lived in a forest with no shelter for a year i would have a higher chance of getting struck by lighting than someone in a large city who prefers the indoors.

[@aenorist2431]

Define likely. Transportation makes up a good chunk of the overall economy, and all those jobs are down the drain in less than 20 years from now. Manufacture already is sharpy declining and will continue to do so exponentially fast. Even limited AI can design, write creativly and so on ... many of those things will be non-human in the coming 50 years, tops.

[@chomu_png]

Mali Rabbit don't worry. from what i heard every smart guy who tries to predict what will happen in the future had no answers and half of them are ignoring the very big possibilty of ai massacre

[@mcclendonreport]

"Jobs" and "tasks" are not work. Humans will have to grow into the real meaning of work.

His points make sense, but I am not particularly fond of the structure of the talk. He spent the first 75% of the talk on the context and got to his point at the very end.

[@geot4647]

Birth control is what's really needed, not constantly trying to accommodate more people. Keywords: finite, planet, fossil fuels, scarcity

[@ResidualSelfImage]

New economic tools are needed that will empower the population to create new economic relationships - - the average person does not have full access to the production and services of economy - when economic automation takes away most economic opportunity from the average person without taking care of the people of society - things will get really bad

[@sonofhendrix1618]

[@Wildflower3328]

What gives a tribal community from Ethiopia a sense of purpose? They live in extended families communities, they all work to survive and they share their food, care taking, wisdom, traditions and knowledge. Take away their ability to feed themselves through work by replacing it with robots and soon enough their existence becomes just as empty as that one in the west. Jobs are the only thing that is glueing western societies together. When robots replace us suicide will take care of that population hockey stick problem.
