Even better are the stores like Sams Club that allow you to scan items in an app on your phone as you put items in your cart and then just checkout on your phone and walk out the door (Sams does have a spot check for everyone leaving, whether you do the scan-and-go or a regular checkout). It's so much faster and more convenient.

The REASON big box super stores have adopted self-checkout is more in line with reducing employee liability claims, weakening union membership, and also receiving checkout line congestion at peak times.

In the context of all that production… in our current economic structure, it still needs people to be able to purchase the supplied goods. Currently we consolidate financial assets on fewer and fewer individuals, so the remaining population have less assets available to invest into these goods. Trickle down has been disproven, so how do we ensure that the average population stays asset-rich enough to purchase those products? Otherwise economies will crash as well… you produce cheaply at enormous scale but no one can afford to buy.

If they're predicting population decrease, then will 20M cars/yr be a huge glut? especially if humans are making less money from being displaced by cheaper robots? Too much supply (if other car manufacturers also stay in business (especially through excess debt)) means their products will outpace demand and will go down in value. Less human-generated value means less money distributed amongst the population, which means less people able to afford these new creations without an UBI, but UBI will just devalue the money.... why will companies want to collect the money if it can't be exchanged for something of value (i.e. today - human labor; but tomorrow when robots do the labor, no longer valuable)?

good point, small thing would be that the robots would probbily be on a battery, this would mean charging time, but even if the work time was reduced to 12 hours (super extreme since charging can be very fast) the cost would only go to $0.24/hour according to your math , of course both estimates do not count power costs but I would not expect that even with power costs factored in for the price to go past $1 / hour and that is on a bit of a high end but who knows , it's the future after all, and nobody can know the future until it isn't the future but the present.... or until elon builds a time machine or something , who knows , I feel like if someone builds a time machine it's going to be elon

Prediction: Within a few years of the mass rollout of Optimus, with its human form, many 'bots will have wheels instead of legs (much less energy needed for movement on a level) and more than 2 arms or other capable appendages.

@@nsbd90now Automation makes business running costs cheaper, which means those that use it will be able to outcompete those that don't. The only reason McDs hasn't automated is the minimum wage in the US is absurdly low. The vast majority of sates is $7.25. In my country of new zealand, it's $14.25 usd, higher than any state in the US. And we have a GDP per capita of $48k usd, where as the US is $70k usd. As soon as this problem is addressed though, places like McDs will calculate that automating is more cost effective, and there'll be mass unemployment, which the government doesn't want. A UBI/GBI is inevitable to deal with automation + ai, and is close in time.

[@dlrabin]

In the context of grocery stores, long checkout wait times can drive customers to smaller, local businesses, potentially boosting employment and supporting small enterprises. The rise of automation has favored large corporations, making it difficult for smaller businesses to compete. This trend could lead to a future dominated by a few giant corporations in various industries, leaving many people as employees or staff. However, I do support automation when it leads to essential goods and services being freely accessible to all. For instance, if we can fully automate farming, and robots can efficiently produce an abundance of food, everyone should have access to free, locally sourced produce. Similarly, if car manufacturing becomes fully automated, basic transportation should be available to all at no cost. The goal here is to ultimately break the economic chains that can lead to societal inequalities.

I tend to agree with pretty much ALL Elon's assessments, except for the population decline--this is a phenomenon of so-called _"developed"_ countries and ecomonies. The growth rate in *Latin America, Africa* and *South Asia* (the MAJORITY of the Earth's population) is still increasing at the same rate. There will be millions upon millions there who can work. Only when THEIR standard of living has increased will their growth rates begin to decline. This is likely a way's off.

People all over the world is leaving the rural areas for the towns, which leave more natural habitat for wildlife and fewer children/woman. Wildlife is sufferning today from other reason than human population. For example chemical poisons in the farming, pedatory fishing, industrial pollution and so on. It even benefit from human population by regenatative farming, wild life protection and so on. All life is important, not only wildlife.

"The more Tesla bots he builds, the more capacity he will have to build" In the long term, perhaps. Not sure how complex assembling a Tesla bot is but a factory with specialized machines on an assembly line will likely do most of that especially if they are made in bulk.

[@noahway13]

He said , "Some people are afraid that robots will take the jobs, but another way to look at it is that we need robots to save those jobs." And everyone fell for that hand wavy, smoke and mirror BS. Yes, we are saving the jobs--- for the ROBOTS. He says Tesla will never fulfil its expansion goals without automation. He said Tesla will still hire humans OBVIOUSLY, but those jobs will only arise because the robots came first. It is so obvious, but yet he doesn't say what humans will be hired to do-- when robots can build robots. Will humans be janitors? We already have the Roomba. Will humans repair the robots that repair the robots? Robots will do that. Will humans do security? Robots are already doing that better. And if Tesla reaches its goals, it will obviously put the other companies out of business. Then he says there is a crisis coming because 1) populations will decline, and 2) and demand is rising. But you can't have demand rise forever, when populations actually decline. Especially when those people have no job or at best, a low wage part time job, or a pittance UBI. People are so eager to support the technology, that they build a future on highly wishful , illogical thinking. (Time stamp. April 9, 2023)

The grocery store could just pay people more money and not be so greedy.

[@mattkennedy6115]

Grocery stores are a really bad example. They’re very competitive and barely break even. A huge problem with the pandemic was that labor couldn’t keep up with demand hence shortages. Robots don’t get sick and can do menial tasks more efficiently and keep the supply chain going. If you pay people alot of money for low paying jobs sure they’ll do the job but the cost will be passed onto the consumer and we’ll still likely have supply problems. Remember scarcity drives up the price of goods too. I’m not a Musk booster but our current model is unsustainable and can’t continue.
