/tech/ - Technology★

Society will go back to the pre-industrial era where half the population is rich and half the population is extremely poor, except now 99% of the population will be extremely poor, 0.99% of the population will live decent-to-mediocre lives and 0.001% of the population will be filthy fucking rich.

The idea that even with perfect automation, we'll still be using human labor for menial tasks simply to give people a sense of purpose isn't an uncommon. It also has some truth to it, as even the most automated of tasks have human oversight and human labor put in. Just look at electronics manufacturing, most of it is done by machine but you still have humans soldering through-hole components and putting the products into a box.

that or we'll all be living a hedonists dream in some synthetic future or global simulation until civilization eventually collapses into scattered ruins

>>970843

yeah, and that will means commies will tell the very poor people to rise up.

>>970855

you need 85 IQ points to be a factory worker.

niggers are too dumb to be factory drones.

crispr'd into cattle for human consumption

>>970857

Then use your future technology to enhance dindu intelligence enough to perform such a task. Assuming biological/unaltered humanity is still even a thing by the time that's possible. Or that dindus are somehow still around.

>>970864

dindus need some kind of eugenics program where their top 10% of smart dindus get to breed.

>>970868

And for what purpose do we need 'smart' dindus?

>>970877

A contigency plan to ensure civilization won't collapse if Africans are left as the only surviving people for whatever reason.

imagine MGTOW when 90% of betas give up and quit.

who is going to keep the streets cleans and keep the machines working if all betas give up because their job has been automated and they're too poor so women wont give them puss?

>>970834 (OP)

It's already happening. Useless people performing useless jobs 9 to 6 just to keep the masses occupied and not revolting into street riots. Those are majority of "first world", second and third-worldlers mine resources and produce goods to fill the existential void of first worldlers with consumerism.

>>970864

>future technology

Just breed the dindus with white thots to get 80-90 IQ mutts who can follow orders but are too dumb to take any sort independent action that might threaten their (((masters))).

>>970891

>imagine MGTOW when 90% of betas give up and quit.

Image something like in the soylent green movie, where you have a few rich with multiple wives, called furniture, I think.

>>970856

Why would commies tell people to rise up, if they already established their perfect system, which is (((a few rich people))) at the top, a tiny fraction below that, and everybody else piss poor.

Sounds like communism to me. No wonder capitalism and communism banded together to fight against a common threat.

A few years ago they were pushing the idea that people of the future would become 'lifelong learners'. They'll just keep increasing the requirements for education/certification until it's never ending to have a lot of teaching jobs and give the masses pointless busywork to keep them occupied.

I expect Ted's predictions about society to really ramp up. People will want to fight the dysfunctional system everybody is stuck in while knowing that they're a worthless cog that keeps it going and wouldn't be able to survive without it. Most people will live out their lives in a drugged stupor to suppress their feelings.

This has nothing to do with intelligence. Plenty of intelligent people hold shitty jobs. It's mostly luck, connections, family support, etc. And so-called skilled jobs will be automated away too, so don't be too arrogant.

Hello Kovri

>>971189

I don't think that there are any mentally retarded billionaires.

>>970857

I can attest to this. The niggers at the factory where I work get fired constantly for fucking up the simplest shit. You'd be amazed at how many nuts come through QC cross threaded but somehow hand-tight.

>>971382

Just shows how mentally retarded you are.

>richfags have kids

>oh no its retarded.jpg

>eventually retard kid inherits money

>you now have a retarded richfag

>>971416

And then they squander the fortune and degenerate giving a 10th to their kids.

>>971189

Intelligence is just potential, and most people don't live up to their potential. A person with average intelligence who works his ass off can achieve more than a highly intelligent person who is a self entitled lazy shit.

>>971416

And then the retarded richfag blows all the money on stupid shit and you no longer have a retarded richfag.

>Indeed, 70% of wealthy families lose their wealth by the second generation, and a stunning 90% by the third, according to the Williams Group wealth consultancy.

Most of the time rich kids don't stay rich.

> and most people don't live up to their potential.

Actually most people are incredibly normie and live up to exactly their potential.

Whether or not a job can be automated has nothing to do with the IQ needed to do it. My low IQ job is perfectly safe.

DESIGNATED SHITTING STREETS.

Show a normie an imageboard and tell them "post something" and they'll freeze up, get bug-eyed and start sputtering like an idiot.

OP (and the rest of the /pol/ lurkers here) if you can put aside your LARPing for a moment, here's an analysis of several futures depending on how we decide to organize society in the face of all encompassing automation.

It does talk about Socialism and Communism though, so you've been warned.

https://www.jacobinmag.com/2011/12/four-futures/

Some points:

> Much of the literature on post-capitalist economies is preoccupied with the problem of managing labor in the absence of capitalist bosses. However, I will begin by assuming that problem away, in order to better illuminate other aspects of the issue. This can be done simply by extrapolating capitalism’s tendency toward ever-increasing automation, which makes production ever-more efficient while simultaneously challenging the system’s ability to create jobs, and therefore to sustain demand for what is produced.

> Taken to its logical extreme, this dynamic brings us to the point where the economy does not require human labor at all. This does not automatically bring about the end of work or of wage labor [...] [but] it does mean that human societies will increasingly face the possibility of freeing people from involuntary labor.

> There are therefore four logical combinations of the two oppositions, resource abundance vs. scarcity and egalitarianism vs. hierarchy.

At this point the article branches in analyzing each quadrant.
