    With trucks being driverless, I see a new industry for the drivers, hijacking the driverless trucks.

    Excellent documentary that covers all of the major challenges facing our worldwide civilization. Please continue to deliver more content like this.

    Lol.... the Game of Monopoly should have taught humanity that the GAME ends when one person Hoards it all. A circular and strong economy comes when there are exchanges of finances and that doesn't happen when the few have it all. Humans are led to fear technology but a knife in the hands of a chef is better than in the hands of a killer. Humanity should setup a system that prevents the killer from getting hold of the knife but at the same time makes sure the future chefs will have the knives. Hence currently the killer has the resources for the technology and they are using it to hoard wealth by canceling jobs.. and they don't want (not know) how to lead humanity to a better future for everyone.

    I dont think u can stop technical evolution, but we can adapt. This would work if governments actually cared about the lives & well-being of their citizens, you know, the guys paying the taxes that pay their wages & fund every government initiative.

    Life always and always find a way. Trust the Evolution. Beautiful documentary ❤
  • @thimmee.948

    There are unintended disconnects between the negative consequences that Martin Ford postulates or projects, and both the narration and the visualization in this video. For example, there's Ford speculating about negative social, employment and economic consequences on a vast scale, driven by the growing competence and mastery of AI, but the accompanying visuals include people walking on the street, upright buildings that presumably serve some purpose, cars on a highway, etc. But given the inevitable level and scale of social disruption, there will be diminishing employment and human productivity, hundreds of millions of people waking up every morning with nothing to do, social chaos, tremendous levels of violence and little beside gutted and burned-out buildings (you'll remember, people don't behave well when there's existential stress). The whole economic system will likely implode as the entire transaction system disappears. So where's the food? If nobody's buying, who's selling? This idea that a small number of tech plutocrats will do just fine in this emerging revolution is, in my opinion, a complete fiction. The other fiction, I think, is to produce a voice-over that fails to take adequate account--believable account--of how people really behave in situations like this. It's my view that we are at the start--no, well beyond the start--of a profound evolutionary moment. Interesting that we have invented our successors.
  • Has anybody ever wondered that inflation doesn’t really make sense, as time passes we become better and better at manufacturing stuff, better and more efficient manufacturing means lowering of cost of production and thus things should be cheaper, but any questions about the raising prices are often explained and shut down with the age old concept of ‘inflation’

    They always say people benefiting, if they mean corporations benefiting they're right. A wise person once said corporations can be people too.

    Don't compare yourselves to the jones. Live your life with peace and tranquility. It's not a competition.
  • @frankprit3320
    they're not concerned about employing displaced workers. They have already said, that they'll just give them a UBI. because they don't anticipate the need for such a large labor force in the future.

    Right, but do they mention: How much Rare Earth metals needed in production of these machines.

    I think your effort in this discussion should focus as to what we , as humans should doe. Since producing goods and food it requires basically Three things, knowledge, energy , and materials. Knowledge and today' work will come with robots, materials is a global supply problem and has to be confronted globally. Therefore if we as individuals have to keep our freedom and live by been empowered and been away from UBI and" own nothing be happy," we have to have our own energy. This can happen if we own property , because if we own property we can have our own energy. That's why the big capital who wants to keep the wealth for themselves say if" you own nothing you are going to be happy".
