I fully support millions of people not having to work anymore. Obviously we must implement GMI, Universal Healthcare, and employee a giant army of federal workers to run the hospitals, and staff to expand all of our other federal institutions.
I argue that shorter work weeks are a better solution.

Surprised Lemmy has a reasonable reaction ti this. People shouldn’t have to do brainless warehouse jobs
Why not the overpaid c-suite?
Ai still needs them to mindlessly make a robot factory with AI to print AI. I’m sure it’ll be safe
Not surprised, but they’ve been trying to do this for a decade. While AI is creating AI slop all over the internet they’ve been all too distracted to build anything meaningful and real robotics for a while. I’m sure they’re getting really close at doing a few things, but humans are complex things. I’ll believe they’re close to doing this when they release self driving cars out of beta.
Well, it’s better than the alternative of humans suffering in those conditions.
I mean, yeah… robots don’t take sick days or form unions. Kinda sounds like a no brainer for them. And hearing how many workers complain about crappy warehouse jobs and terrible pay everyone is better off.
Doesn’t mean I’m going to be giving them money though, however I guess I can’t boycott something I’m not using, but others should.
Exactly this is a good use of robots. We just need an actual support system for people that doesn’t require them to work insane hours and ties Healthcare to jobs.
Some form of basic income, Healthcare and affordable housing should be the norm and let robots handle tedious tasks.
Sadly we are skipping the quality of life steps
