Even as a programmer?
If your job can be done by a robot, time to adapt.

You are kidding right that you believe that?
Just because something can happen doesn't mean it will happen that fast. Humans are unbelievably resistant to change.
Movie theaters in Korea have been doing seat selection online/phone ordering for like 7 years. That stuff is just finally starting to happen across the US.
And you are telling me that they are going to get rid of auditors? The people that look for fraud in companies. Lol. They may not do most of the work (e.g., manipulate Excel to see trends) but they definitely will still be the ones reviewing the data and talking to people at the company.
Not saying you are wrong but I think peoplee misunderstand job elimination with a job evolving.
For example...self driving cars. Takes away cops ability to harass and stop minority individuals for fake infractions. Hopefully, this leads to them spending more time on actual dangerous to society criminals.
This is what gave me the extra incentive I needed to enter into IT.You are kidding right that you believe that?

Well you bring up a good point. There is an ethical decision to make in the future. Simple jobs can and WILL be replaced by automation in the future, but the question is when. It's all a numbers game at that point. If the cost to keep humans in bottom skill level jobs is cheaper than automation then yes they'll keep them. As soon as those numbers fluctuate it'll be a wrap. It's more than just dollars per hour too. Think of the amount of people filing for DHS support and such after losing a job. All this adds up. Now, here's where the ethical standpoint comes in. Those who are only able to do lower level worst are essentially casted out. This in turns creates a huge division in class and living conditions. Sounds like science fiction but it's actually a byproduct in all of this. So the question is, do you create this division or do you withhold the technology? Also, of the two, which is actual progress?
They gonna make sex dolls first, then they'll take over a few years later.
Experts predict robots will take over 30% of our jobs by 2025 — and white-collar jobs aren't immune

Will Your Job Be Done By A Machine?

Bookkeepers have a
97.6%
chance of being automated.
Electrical and Electronics Drafters have a
80.8%
chance of being automated.
Accountants and Auditors have a
93.5%
chance of being automated.
You can play with the menu yourself and see if your job may be in jeopardy.

from 650 workers to 60 and going to be less even soon . People will be replaced by robots. this is just the beginning.
View media item 1653412We ARE artificial intelligence. We were created the same way we are creating these robots.
That quote doesnt apply to what we have today. Dude died in 07 and we got Cortana cracking jokes on windows 10. Give in 10 more years
The quote directly applies to the statement (that came off like you were stating a fact) I quoted.That quote doesnt apply to what we have today. Dude died in 07 and we got Cortana cracking jokes on windows 10. Give in 10 more years
My statement isnt fact. Its my opinion and so is his statement. Him dieing in 07 is relevant cause hes not around so see artificial intelligence evolve like we have now. Ex. Title of this thread.The quote directly applies to the statement (that came off like you were stating a fact) I quoted.
When he died is irrelevant
Nope a good 200 years it's going to take a genius AI for robots to start programming . Our jobs are secure nothing to worry aboutLike I said, I'm not worried about my job being taken by a programming A.I.
That ain't happening anytime soon.
@ you thinking it'll be 200 years...try 20.
It's just a factory man
If there was a ranking for them, it'd probably be in the top 10 most repetitive jobs. Machines are definitely gods of repetition in comparison to us..
All they really need is a staff of trained workers to do maintenance on the machines whenever necessary. Maybe a few for security, few for facilities..
No need for shift leads or managers (excluding the manager of the technicians) because there are very few human employees.
Still not impressed.

200 years is od I was exaggerating, but 20 years ?...not gonna happen. All of the processes that go into programming and software engineering in general. I highly doubt AI will be smart enough to do documentation, system design, maintain and navigate through complex systems, test, communicate with customers and management to make sure they are on the right track, and program.
Now if you are talking simple hello world and other things like thay okay, but besides that I am doubtful of 20 years. If robots get to the point where they can replace software engineers I am confident there won't be many jobs left they will all be replaced by robots.
Not eem gon lie.hnnnnnnngggggggg
I think you are underestimating all of the task I just said. Writing simple programs and replacing software engineers are two totally different things.I think you are drastically underestimating the capabilities of machine learning. There are algorithms that can already write simple programs, write news articles, etc. The only thing holding back AI at this point are algorithms that allow for recursive self improvement. After that hurdle has been tackled, AI will improve exponentially.
The quote absolutely still applies. And Cortana or Siri are terrible examples to disprove him. You'd be better off using Watson but even then you'd still be wrong.My statement isnt fact.

And this is really all that matters. I'll be dead or retired so I don't care.I think you are underestimating all of the task I just said.

Doesn't matter to me if it happens it happens, I'll be long out of the software engineering field by then. Feel bad for future generations, there will be no jobs if they achieve this level of AI.
these are just factory workers as well right .
