  • Alright I get your point.

    Probably it will be chaos regardless, and coming out of that turmoil a form of socialism would be great. I don’t think any of these fundamental transitions happen smoothly.

    Another point just struck me about this piece. It talks about how these robots probably will be used for military purposes as well. That also means that every company with (let’s say) a thousand or more bots will have asignificantl armed force on call. What will that mean for power dynamics within countries?


  • I don’t think they are cowards, but in this piece indeed these implications don’t come forward. In other articles and books they do talk about what the conditions should be for using the many transitions they talk about for good, or if those conditions aren’t met, how they will not benefit most people. I think their work does capsulate well how these kind of transition will totally change current markets and partially economic systems, but how this exactly will play out is anybody’s guess.
