Reply to A McDonald’s location has opened in White Settlement, TX, that is almost entirely automated. Since it opened in December 2022, public opinion is mixed. Many are excited but many others are concerned about the impact this could have on millions of low-wage service workers. by Callitaloss
Ignoring the discussions around how many jobs this actually takes away (not many, and it creates other jobs elsewhere around machine design, installation and upkeep), if this 'automation' bothers people they should be pushing for Universal Basic Services (UBS).
People don't want these jobs, they want the (small amount of) money the job provides in order to purchase things to meet their basic needs. So provide UBS and nobody needs to do crap jobs like this in order to live.
I say bring on the automation; nobody should have to work at McDonalds. Let's just do jobs that help us live fulfilling lives and leave the drudgery to the robots.

Automating a full burger assembly is likely still too complex for a one-off stunt. They're replacing cashiers and drivethrough attendants with a conveyor belt. For in-store pickup they still have a human yell out the order numbers to be picked up.

Don’t go to these locations so they do not make any profit at them

> Also its very hard for someone to crack your bitcoin and find out what transaction you did.
Only the first part of this sentence is correct, the cryptography in bitcoin is designed to give you absolute ownership of the bitcoin you control by means of (Currently) unbreakable encryption. But the transactions themselves are totally public on the blockchain that anyone can look up anytime. Once they know you are the author of a transaction they can scan that wallet for other movements and figure out a lot of info about you. Monero is a cryptocurrency that actually encrypts the transactions as well as the wallets so this does not happen, but it and other privacy conscious cryptocurrencies are not as popular as the ones that reveal your movements by default such as ethereum and bitcoin.
Iirc this was sort of a strategic decision by Satoshi Nakamoto, who was balancing the threat bitcoin could pose to the traditional economy - greater obfuscation would've been possible to implement but he chose not to go that way. As is bitcoin is extremely transparent to authorities and so it's potential for disruption is lower than if it was really untraceable internet money.

Nah I heard that they automate the deep-fryer and the burger flipping

The way I see it is that we will end up having AI gods taking care of our warp drives and some experts will still explain that they are not truly “intelligent” but just large transformer models doing massive matrix math…

Will certainly allow creativity to flourish while simultaneously killing off large swathes of careers and likely reducing game dev team sizes by a large number. I think indie games are the new AAA when generative AI takes over.

Based on my travels I got a really strong intuition that we are already post-scarcity by production, but we still fail at distribution. As long as we still exist in a system where it's more profitable to pulp goods than give them away we will not ever reach it. Communism unfortunately has a number of severely undesirable failure states but I have some ideas as to how we can make capitalism better at distribution hopefully without having to murder large numbers of people because they wear glasses.

I think it will benefit them if they allow it. Age of abundance will make people soft and less masculine cause they don’t have to work for anything and that’s exactly what the globalists want.

Haven’t goods and services gotten cheaper over time tho? Like in the past only the super rich would drive cars and fly on airplanes but now it’s cheaper so everyone can do it and I believe AI will turbocharge this eventually making everything so cheap that anyone can buy anything they want.

Reply to comment by vernes1978 in ChatGPT creator Sam Altman visits Washington to meet lawmakers | In the meetings, Altman told policymakers that OpenAI is on the path to creating “artificial general intelligence,” by Buck-Nasty
I dont think so. if you perfect your fusion experiment, you end up with a working sample of the goal of the project.
>In the meetings, Altman told policymakers that OpenAI is on the path to creating “artificial general intelligence,” a term used to describe an artificial intelligence that can think and understand on the level of the human brain.
I hope he didn't give that explicit definition because it ties his goals to something quite specific. If they perfect GPT and it produces 99.9999% accurate answers, he won't necessarily end up with a working sample of his stated goal.
That definition is an actual AI, something that doesn't currently exist, and absolutely no one knows how to build. That's why they went down the machine learning path with big data and compute.

Isn't the RNA-based covid vaccine made with something similar you describe?
And also there are printers for stem cells, with which they create new organs etc. Synthetic biology is not from far future, it has been here for a decade or so.

It's systematic and psychological problem to begin with, hardly anything AI related.
Further, so called "Fully Automated Luxury Communism' requires change of the system to begin with, obviously. Current AI development is capitalistic, and I don't see something to be changed soon. AI will(is already) be used for control and profit, and military is among the most interested in the technology. I find it really absurd to believe in sugar coated utopia, given the state of society the system, the ecological problems and whatnot.
