Thread regarding Shell Oil layoffs

The future is not today, it’s tomorrow

I think there are a lot of Premadanas on this site who are either in denial or ignorant of the facts. Your missing the point. The future is not today, it's tomorrow. Maybe it takes 10 years or maybe 20 but the world is changing at a faster clip than all of us really understand. Most jobs in 2035 can't even be imagined now. The jobs of today will be replaced by artificial intelligence creating opportunity for a new generation of Americans that will require new skill sets and visionaries that will lead the Brave New World into the 4th Industrial Revolution. Oil companies will have their place in the market but will become insignificant compared to the past 100 years of the world being reliant on fossil fuels. Wealth will shift from the rich princes of the middle east and others, over to the leaders and innovators of the next leap of humanity. Electrification of cars and self-driving vehicles is only the tip of the iceberg. Sooner or later you will be ordering your Big Mac from a robot. Stay stuck on stupid and you will find yourself lost....and unemployed.

Great post by @WmvmgV9-dywk . Thought I should repost it.

You don’t have to be a soothsayer to make a connection between jobs lost through AI, universal basic income and the need for social programs to sustain societies crushed by unemployment. If half the population is bedevilled by a lack of opportunity and a reasonable income how else would you impose social order.

I suggest you read the book Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence by Max Tegmark.

Thanks to AI everything will be done by machines, so what do we do with humans?

In his book Max paints a world where AI will eventually lead to socialism! Very interesting transformation specially for the us.

May be When visionary people like Elon Musk, Stephen Hawking warn of artificial intelligence dangers, the rest of id--ts on this planet should listen!

Did you just figure that out. Blunt instruments like you will fall behind the sharper pencils ✏️ who are doing something about this.
