Hello lemmy! ^^

I was given this debate topic for an ethics class and since I really like this “small” tech savvy community that we have I wanted to know what were your thoughts.

I personally love the idea of replacing jobs so we can focus on the things we love and care (ranging from developing games to spending time with loved ones).

But on the other side I am rather scared that our society will not be able to follow the rapid growth of technology and put in place good regulations to avoid widening the gap between the top% and the rest of us

Thanks for your answers ^^

    Well, our society relies on things like earning money day-to-day to survive. It is not the best move to take away the simple jobs or even the complex jobs; well this is a factor. If one day we can remove the factor of money and automate 99% of jobs, then yeah, it would be worth it even to just make it so we no longer have to do these simple repetitive tasks.

    Currently, AI is used to replacing human factors in the creativity field, well we can say it can be a helpful tool; It can also be used for evil. This is shown with AI calls from ‘your loved ones’ saying they need money or to generate AI Deepfakes of people to harm their image. We at minimum need regulation for these tools and should start with higher end-jobs, that these billionaires are doing rather than working-class people.
