[@Berneche2]

I got to observe the SAM 100 in action at the International Masonry Institute in Addison, IL a few years ago. I posted video I took to our Facebook page and the reactions were startling, mostly from masons worried about losing their jobs. The manufacturer claimed it would not replace the mason, but would allow the mason to focus more on QC and to even work more years. Though I imagine future versions will provide its own QC. A high number of views to our usual posts would be 100 or more. That video received 61,000 views and over 30 comments. As always the future is exciting and scary, and while some are pushing for trade school as an alternative to college, automation appears to show that college is still the surest way to be employed in the robotic revolution. I grew up in an auto town and saw it happen to that industry in the 80's.

[@Maurazio]

those two things don't exclude each other. In Switzerland you can do an apprenticeship (which is half time trade school and half time working and learning on the job) and then continue with "professional" universities up to master's degree, and many do this nowadays. In the US this job is left to companies and it also seems to work as a system since unemployment is so low. The problem of auto towns is just that, reliance on a single industry, but that's america I guess, towns grew out of nowhere because of a factory instead of the other way around.

[@yazanmowed]

Maurazio I never thought of it that way in regards to how in America factories came first followed by the towns.

[@Berneche2]

In the town I grew up in, Kokomo Indiana, they found huge natural gas deposits that drew industry to an already established town. Industry drawn there was once more varied but it was eventually the auto plants that remained. There are some towns as you describe, the most extreme probably being Gary, Indiana formed in 1906 by US Steel. There, a combination of mechanization but more so outright racism is what has destroyed that city. I'm not so sure most towns were formed this way, but they clearly grew dependent on a sole industry and grew exponentially, be it from textiles in New England or steel and autos in the rust belt. But yes the ones pulling out of their slump are doing so by attracting multiple industries.

[@stevenespaillat3751]

Your focus on construction and robotics is superb. I wonder if other channels focused on the effect of technology on other industries exist at this quality level. (i.e Marketing, Transport, Law, etc.) If anyone knows of other channels at this level of quality please reply below. I'd greatly appreciate it.

[@kayrosis5523]

As always, another fascinating video. It's interesting to see how robots are not just making some jobs more effecient and less repetitive/dangerous, but are starting to take things like those double curved concrete molds out of the realm of the extremely expensive art pieces and making them affordable on a mass scale. It makes me wonder, especially in combination with advances in 3d printing whether we might see more ornamented, robo-baroque buildings in the future, with ornate fractal/pseduo-organic bas reliefs and cutouts that would have been otherwise obscenely expensive if not outright impossible.

[@circusboy90210]

Erik S nit true, nobody is going to use a 20 million $$ robot to make $50 parts. And they should be expensive, or it's not special.

[@kayrosis5523]

people use $20 million machines to make $50 parts all the time. and the robots wont be so expensive forever, they'll get cheaper like everything else. and why should architectural pieces be expensive when they don't have to be? to make sure only the elites can have nice things? that's silly.

[@circusboy90210]

Erik S an assembly line robot makes millions of $50 parts we are talking about one off creations in the dozens and sporadically. Not the same thing. Nobody is going to use a 20 million robot to replace a human worker on a job site and have inferior workmanship to boot.

[@circusboy90210]

[@chemicalsweet13]

You've won me over bro. Great videos! Keep up the great work! Next time tell us some of the programming languages and jobs supporting the robotics out there so we can plan our personal education accordingly. Simply saying what's coming is one thing, suggesting ways to prepare for it is even better. Point out caveats as well, it's always helpful to hear both pros and cons on a topic. There are no solutions, only trade-offs. Understanding them is valuable.

[@user-eh5wo8re3d]

I hear this argument so often "AI and Robotics will eradicate many jobs, but -- as has always been the case so far -- new jobs will emerge". What is this idea based on? Yes many people found new jobs and shifted from blue collar to white collar after the first and second industrial revolution. As mechanical work was largely autonomized, work was found in jobs that required human ingenouity and thinking. But exactly these jobs are now tackled by AI. What sector remains for humans? If machines can perform mechanical tasks AND thinking tasks better than we can. This does not have to be a bad thing. I mean the requirement for work vanishing can set humanity free to do other things. But I dont think "new jobs will be created anyway" is a sensible idea. ___ Edit: Sorry for the little rant, aside from that litte thing, great video as always :P

[@rsoul7282]

Mimir Fonten they aren’t going to be smarter than us (yourself possibly) AI can absolutely smoke human intelligence in some areas, but there are simple things that completely stump it, such as the subtle nuances in description and emotion, so don’t fret.

[@user-eh5wo8re3d]

R Soul that is the case for now. But humans are Just biological machines. IT IS Just a Matter of time that we build General AI. And because electronics are a supiror medium in Terms of scalability and Speed compared to biology, IT will soon after be smarten than us

[@rsoul7282]

Mimir Fonten you talk it down, and I understand your negative feelings, however, there are things that AI can never do, and they are being built by humans with all their fallibility as servents of humans, so they aren’t going to wipe us out. Did your mother’s washing machine and oven render her obsolete? These measures will increase productivity, not make us useless.

[@user-eh5wo8re3d]

R Soul i am Not frustrated at all. I Just find IT extremly Dangerous to assume General artificial intelligence is impossible. I dont See any reason why that should ne the case. I dont think IT will Happen in the next few years, but IT will Happen eventually. Just Look at the pace of Progress that is beeing Made. AS you Said, narrow ai can already Trump any human in their small field. Now imagine what will Happen if instead of a narrow Domain, the ai is generally capable.

[@rsoul7282]

Mimir Fonten so what you are saying is that in a couple of decades or so we can quite easily beat the most dominant organism that evolution has created over billions of years down to our own inaction and blind pursuit of technology, meanwhile even the lowliest of machine these days in developed countries has to meet all kinds of standards? Righty then.

[@markplain2555]

This all looks good BUT! The discussion should be about what issues robots need to overcome in order to make an impact in the construction industry. In construction the biggest issue is the terrain. Having a robot work in a messy tight terrain is the biggest challenge. Note for example 4:37 onward the vehicles are working in a neatly cleaned and level sand terrain which is not representative of reality. The bricklaying robot (2:50) needs perfectly flat rails to work on and even then it can only do straight walls. Just about all other robots here work inside a factory floor - which isn't really construction but rather fabrication. The most impressive robot here is 3:15 - tie bot. That robot needs to be carefully reviewed. This machine was placed on rails to build the intricate reinforcing for a bridge. What is the cost for this robot? How quick is it? How easy is it to assemble and disassemble? (ie: viability). If any prospective engineer wants to pursue robotics in construction take a good look at 3:15 - here we have something special.

I feel like the cost of building that massive rebar robot and the time spend setting it up there is propably a lot more money and work than just hiring a few workers to do it in a few hours. I'm skeptical of this robot revolution. I think people over-estimate how fast and how deep robots will penetrate work in the next 100 years or so.

[@kevinkanzler495]

Its going to be a long time until many of these are more cost effective and versatile enough to be used widely. Compare the cost, efficiency, versatility and resiliency of 4 30 year old experienced laborers to renting a half million (million dollar?) robot. Some of these machines and robots will be implemented eventually for sure. But as with most of these kinds of things is usually a bit longer away than you think it is.

[@Mira_linn]

I have a hard times imagine robots to take over mutch more then on big constructionsites for skyscrapers were you can move up everything quite easily and prefab as it is stationary construction. The establishing costs seems to be to high for most of these techs for low and medium rise buildings but excavation might be quite common as we have seen terrain models spreading to smaller and smaller projects already along with machine controll however as long as we still have to have a dude with a shovel working next to the excavater for fine leveling it might simply be to dangerous.

I remember reading that when the seed drill was first invented in the mid to late 1700's it was at least 60 years before you saw them used on every farm because of the amount of farm labourers that would have lost their jobs from that back breaking mundane kind of work. The days of cheap labour coming over from abroad to pick and sort fruit and vegetables are certainly over thats for sure as are shelf stackers, welding jobs and bricklayers. Luckily for me (for now) my job as a conservation builder and plasterer is still safe but there are quite a few jobs that aren't and as far as I can see the jobs left for humans to do will be desk bound, writing code onto screens, IT and the sex industry, but even that could be toast.

R Soul.. Nice Dream there.. But this is not another industrial revolution happening like a 2nd version of the one that started in the UK and spread around the world. in the early 19th century and took about 50 years to change all working! This is a very fast change of super computing and super AI robots doing work faster better than us ever could? It is the end of many if not all jobs of all the people who work in the main job sectors but of course not in the top manager levels or the bosses of these greedy companies who will jump at the chance to replace almost all if not all their human workers with a super AI based robot workforce who can learn anything we do and can work 24/7 365 days with no sickness no breaks no holidays no strikes? A dream come true for the greedy bosses who don't wish to see a workforce of slow humans when they can have smart fast AI robots instead. Yes I am a Naysayer But I work in a job like many others will soon be taken by these clever robots and seeing the rate of change it is very bad for most workers? You look at it as a better time for people.. so where will us billions of jobless go? who will fund a good level of lifestyle for us..? No Government or company will care.. they ok while should they care? So billions of jobless, poor people with nothing to look forward to, no money, no homes.. and little hope.. so a mass death sounds about right then we all jump off the mountains and high places on mass.. billions dead so the elite will be fine and rich.. either that or we rise up and destroy these robots..

[@rsoul7282]

Colin Campbell I’m sorry if you feel like this, but people who are stubborn have been howling about change since the dawn of humanity, and I come from the last generation that did not have a computer anywhere in the house, I am successful but not stupidly rich and bloated, and in my opinion automation is not going to wipe us out in an unstoppable torrent, even masters of industry recognise that humans are a unique 80kg self replicating learning device, that requires no engineering.

[@ronnetgrazer362]

I'm also optimistic about the future, but very confident that AI will surpass our intelligence in every way that matters within 10 to 20 years, and it won't be a moment too soon. As soon as we can do away with human stupidity where it counts, we can start making a better future for ourselves. But if we don't embrace, nay, embed all that tech, we risk being left out of the loop by our then-superiors. Before you whisk away the notion of superhuman general intelligence being realized before the first half of this century is over, consider the fact that pretty much every one who works in the field agrees that it's coming. And then there is the fact that the exponential growth of AI power is already observable, and that AI is becoming more generalized with practically every published paper. Researchers are stringing together different kinds of neural models to achieve more comprehensive and useful solutions all the time, and what's even more impressive, important strides are being made in teaching AI to improve on itself. Advances in computational parallelisation and optimization are continuous, as is the development of more accurate models of biological neuronal activity. Every single aspect of this life-changing development has been speeding up in the last couple of years. Whatever your life experience, it will help you very little in being able to predict what is to come.

[@rsoul7282]

Ron Netgrazer so then what in your life experience qualified you to make a prediction and then say you can’t make predictions? Bizarre.

[@jaredmt]

I don't think we are near the point of super human intelligent AI. It will take a while before we get there despite all the hype. Blue Collar workers will always have a job but they'll need to get more technical than they were in the past. They'll be repairing/maintaining machines and things of that nature.

The challenge for the future is not a technological one, its a human one.

Or millions of people will sit indoors all day, take their soma, while receiving a universal basic income to pay for everything to be delivered to their government provided homes.

Also keep in mind robot brains would not be working autonomously, the entire crew of robots could be controlled by a single brain that can see the job site from every possible angle and know the status and position of other robots, weather, traffic, material, orders. All working 24x7 without mistakes, breaks, injuries, attitude, hidden agenda, theft, malice, corner cutting, etc. etc. The continuous improvement challenge will be to see how many hours robots can do the job before humans have to step on the job site. I think estimates of when this impacts jobs has been seriously underestimated.

5:17 - No, if we don't change/update our socio-economic organization (based on *unnecessary* competition, humanity's technological advancement (automation) benefiting the few capitalists and not all the humans, etc.) it will lead to exponentially growing unemployment rates, to more and more people becoming unable to provide for themselves, thus increasing poverty, thus increasing crime/violence rates (and it will happen in *your* neighborhood, so don't think even for a second that you are "safe" from automation/its consequences), and ultimately to another Great Depression (like in 1920s, except this time of much, much more catastrophic proportions).
