Would you like a future world where all the work is done by robots and we need to pay to work?

if we get money by doing nothing? or have fun?

Just do nothing all day?

There'd be worldwide depression, boredom and hate, along with mass suicides, robot destroying rampages, and a rise in social crimes.

No, I'll work.

Sadly, work is necessary for humans' mental health. I'd have to take the work, or I'd become probably depressed af. 😩

True!

popmol · 22-25, M

yes, we live so much longer then we used to but now we sometimes have too much time

Somebody will still need to program those robots, build them and so on

and not all jobs are going to be suitable for a robot to do !

well one i would say make a robot that programs other robots. done.

and which jobs? any job where you need precision and thinking could be done by a robot.

@popmol: Let me give you an example of a job a robot could not do .
A therapist. A psychologist ! Where actual human interaction is needed ... just two of many jobs a robot could not do

@Hustler2: well i don' think so. i mean robots can think this fast that they could easily record conversations of other therapist and calculate what they might do and sicne everything would be free you could find a hobby in drawing or something and do whatever you want. less people will be depressed
