TheFogan,

Now imagine actual androids were taking jobs

Honestly to me that’s the real crazy thing of the culture and system that’s getting so frustrating. The work to survive is a product of a society that needed things to be done to make things move forward. If we figure out a way to say eliminate 99.9% of the need for work, are we going to turn things into say like many dystopia views, like the episode of black mirror where people were “working” by peddling on a bike, or the Jetsons where he sits around pushing the same button for hours.

Androids to me seem… meaningless for taking actual jobs. Most jobs don’t need sentience or personality, they require the ability to follow instructions, do tasks and in some cases solve problems. The robots that will be mining rare earth minerals, or assembling chips etc… shouldn’t have any sentience or even need to communicate in complex ways.

IMO by the time thinking communicating androids are out… there won’t be much real need for regular labor. 90% of Jobs will either be silly artificial tasks as pointless as bitcoin mining, or working will become something for a tiny handful of people.
