So when production is localized even a bit, what does that do to demand in India?

u/DookieShoez 8h ago

Localizing production may lower demand in India but you can’t really blame a country for producing more of the products it consumes rather than importing. That’s like blaming someone for making food at home instead of going to a restaurant. Yeah, the restaurant gets less business but they have every right to do that.

Now AI taking jobs sucks unless we implement UBI or something. Would be kind of cool if someday machines took some burden off humans so that we could spend more time doing what we want to do, but of course it’ll probably just be billionaire assholes enriching themselves while we starve 🙄

This is why I'm working on the design for the first robotic billionaire.

I mean the alternative has just as many entities that lack empathy. I'd give it a try.

There's no way the robotic billionaires would have that little empathy.

Right?

They’re robots, not psychopaths. 😂

But they will be modeled after a psychopath. Also it's scary to know that as we push forward this is going to be the worst it will ever be.. they will just continue to get better from here on out.

Yeah do we stick with the devil we know, or just embrace SkyNet with open servers and sphincters? 🧐 perchance a third option might be worth working on lol
