The Robot Revolution: Automation Comes into Fashion | Moving Upstream

[@TraderTimmy]

Absolutely. Machines don’t take breaks and don’t have salaries, They require only maintenance and upgrading. Step by step, advanced robotic machines will be taking over production from humans. It’s only a matter of time. Most importantly, governments must prepare for the consequences of this. And it’s not only the textile industry. It’s all manufacturing.

And one more reason is that if you received same amount of money then few people's are rich in the world and very few people have capacity to buy higher product such as Audi cars, and the sells of the company is very low and they run in loss in future the people are not able to buy a car whose price point is 15 lakh also.because universal basic income is very low. And about upgradation of people then how we make money everything is automated. Today every normal people have capacity to buy Audi cars and many more for ex if I open a restaurant then I earn so much money to buy Audi cars and a professors, doctors,and a travel agency workers has also capacity to buy Audi cars.

I think this is a period of time, that is critical in America, and that issues here, concerning labor and employment are paramount. The WSJ robot revolution stories are well done, however there seems to be a touch of sympathy, that robots will be putting people in certain countries out of their jobs. It is well to note that is was not long ago jobs in America were very difficult to come by. or that the homeless problem now is gigantic. This is simply to point that each country must have its own evolution. Each country must make do for its people. Can they ask for help amongst the nations? Of course, however commerce is the driving force in a capitalistic world, and that is just a fact. Leaders of these companies seek maximization of the bottom line, and results that are far and above what should be natural to a growing companies, as such, there must be a suffering of sort, as an example, some countries will lose jobs to automation,but will make more money than they would have by keeping their employees as their sales grow. It seems there is resistance to giving better wages, and it is better not to do that, and make more for who? I am for a different type of capitalism, the old way, where employees were valued, but it can appear at times, employees seek more and more, to the point robotization is the relief of the business leader, and at that point who could blame him? I think this is an unfortunate situation, and there is a silver lining, in that, there is an educational revolution of Machine Learning and AI, and people have yet to gain the full breath of that industry yet, and as such, cannot envision where the world is headed, in what direction ultimately. Like most inventions, ML & AI, can be used for the mass good, or cause untold devastation among populations. Only time will tell.

automation is gonna cause major global and domestic issues. mostly bc by the time someone learns a new trade, there can already be new automation for that field. and the fields most resistant to automation will also have increasing pressure to figure out how to automate them. Additionally, the learning curve for ai and robotics is exponential, whereas people can only really gain knowledge and skills, as individuals, linearly. Lastly, even in fields where humans outcompete robots/a.i., a 90% efficient robot may still be preferred if it costs half as much as a person. Just so many reasons why this is gonna cause trouble. Also, I'm very amused at the white collar workers who think they're immune from automation.

So no more sweatshops, no more exposing workers to harmful chemicals and no more child labour. 😊

Teach a person to fish, feed them for a lifetime. People simply need to learn how to grow their own food, purify their own water, and generate their own electricity. Once you have basic needs covered, then they can grow from there.

@7:00 @7:26 fully automated garment-making in Arkansas, with AI. The cost of manufacturing these garments will be on-par with labor-made garments. At these rates, automation will jeopardize the industrialization process of many poor developing countries like Bangladesh. According to World Bank, Bangladesh needs 2 million new jobs each year for the growing population. But the country can only fulfill 60 thousands a year.

If a machine can take a humans job, then it should - having a human do the machine's work means that we treat humans as machines. Humans should do human work.

[@raybroomall5946]

The second machine age has two major hurdles. What justifies income when labor is no longer a rational metric? When autonomous systems reduce the costs to the point that deflation begins to collapse the economy the reduction in the tax base will leave little revenues to relieve the pressures deflation causes.

[@rattlehead999]

with full automation currency is no longer necessary, but the powerful government will keep an artificial currency for sure just to keep people obedient and oppressed.

India has been overpopulated and people truly are in dire situations needing for a job. India is the first country (probably the one of the many top) facing this. I wonder how they are going to solve this problem.

Asia could make good money if they somehow find a way to make tailor made clothes directly for the customer. For example lets say I have a favorite jeans which fits me well. In their webshop (which they should make) I enter my measurements and I enter the EAN codes of some of my clothes which I like to wear because the size just fits me well. Maybe even a (3d) picture of me. This way they will know my exact measurements and draw the measurements of my favorite clothes out of a database(which they should start to build asap) with the EAN codes I provided. Then they can make tailormade clothes(perhaps with the help of robots etc). This would also eliminate a lot of waste of customers throwing clothes away fast because of the bad fit and also all the fuel costs around the world of shipping clothes, sending them back and stock which is never sold. If Asia would do this they would keep the business and cut away the companies who now take most of the profit. Also it would bring a new standard in the world because if more people would wear tailor made clothes then this will become the new way of life. Then not the garment workers would have a problem but the Western multinationals who only sell the clothes in their stores. Asia has all this power, they just need to take it.

[@jamieslate]

This same use case could be done in the US with faster shipping. I think the appeal of instant (or 2 day) gratification and tailor made clothing would make, semi-automated clothing more marketable locally, than across the globe.

[@simonkwan3054]

Well. They can. But the price is not feasible and the market is niche. The reason they make mass production is to meet the FOB price from the brands. And if you don't like the fitting then blame it on the designers. They decide the fittings and measurements.

[@ahopefiend1867]

Hahaha. They blur prisoner faces too. Didn't see that coming. LOL

[@Skinnymarks]

Now can sewbot become cheaper than over sea workers as mass production of these robots come to take over all garment manufactory

[@ReasonableRadio]

The contrast is funny here between bangladesh's "yes we're scared the machines will take our jobs" and the chinese workers in another report "yes the machines will take our jobs so we'll get new ones"

[@Matthew8473]

Intrigued by your analysis; it's reminiscent of a book that was just as thought-provoking. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint

[@dtvfan24]

even the sewing is going robot and hi tech. oh dear our world is becoming so tech centric

[@mongolianbornaparte7217]

The government has a new policy of "No robots left behind".

Let's the robot do the normal thing and human need to improve more arts in themselves

[@nskumar6394]

Change is imminent. Just ask Bangladesh to focus on reducing population.

[@egor.okhterov]

Ns Kumar They don't need to reduce population. They need to teach new generations relevant stuff: mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology.

[@AqierDesigns]

Охтеров Егор nah. the only theme that matters is programming. we need to programm artificial inteligence than we have a godlike allknowing beeing that can answer all our questions.

[@egor.okhterov]

Solar Aqier You can do nothing in that field without mathematics.

[@AqierDesigns]

Охтеров Егор Not an expert but I believe you can. Since programming is not based on mathematics even tho it uses slot of similarities.

[@egor.okhterov]

Solar Aqier I am an expert. You can program GUI without knowing mathematics, but you can do nothing in AI without it. To program a simple neural network you already need to know matrices and gradients.

india traded silk hundreds of years ago with the brits for food- hence the royal navy and the west indian trading company- ftc

[@relaxyourself5551]

Definitely.. Demand comes. Automatically everything will take up this kind of opportunities and investment.

[@curtainsup9]

watch the movie Automaton ....the robots learn to repair themselves and even build other robots.

[@daniel23554]

How can we help advanced manufacturing to benefit people and planet more fully? Will training workers how to manage machines be enough to both provide enough jobs and also product affordable clothing?

[@sumantabanerjee5017]

After a certain period of time AI application and Industry automation will come not only fashion or garments sector. In every manufacturing sector it will come within 2050. Then the type of job will be chenged and more safe. But if you mentioned some of the link of how to start learning about AI , machine learning and robotic manufacturing from graduate level to who are working in manufacturing sector. That will be a new Horizon. Thanks.

[@TheMdog8]

This sort of stuff is going to force everyone to re-evaluate what we consider 'work' and how wealth is distributed. Currently the tech efficiency gains keep going into fewer and fewer hands, but that can't last forever - people need capital to keep capitalism going. There will be a period of augmentation, where people work side-by-side with automation, but why would they stop there? We will keep advancing, throw AI into the mix and its anyone's guess how far this will go. We're about to transition into a new economy, but the transition period won't be pretty because the current beneficiaries of the system won't go down without a fight.

[@yeetskeet2566]

Have you heard about How about LEDU COIN? Do you think it will be ramphant in the next days to come?

[@robertbidochon7949]

Robots being better than us at a lot of jobs thus replacing us will be inevitable. And it will reduce the cost of transport thus the pollution because all the productions possible to do locally will be. Give the choice to any entrepreneur of either paying ten people or only one to do the same job and to reduce his transport cost and he'll joyfully tell you to do so immediately. It's only a matter of time, now.

[@SweetHyunho]

Let's plead billionaires to hire them to sing hymns about them 24/7 and broadcast it worldwide.

[@Rajjain_]

I think it will be hard for these autonomous robots to replace cheap labour of developing countries, as they will also need human intervention, maintenance and large capital. And I think they can only be designed for a specific purpose they can't do multitasking like us haha

[@hamarana]

all right . then about only 10 people in the world wil have these huge companies all automated,,they will need no employees, no waiters, no drivers., no airplane pilots, no farm workers, no surgeon doctors..., no buttlers, not even actors or screen writers to make their movies and comedies because AI will do it all that for them.. they will be piling up billions and billions of dollars each year...then what ??

We just invent a new types of job In the past majority of people were peasants We replaced this by tracktors But people find a new jobs Why are you so afraid?
