Those robots are expensive! They’re not gonna risk something worth so much on anything dangerous - let the worthless humans do that shit!

I understand what community I’m in, but I feel like this relates to something I’ve thought about since using a rental electric vehicle. There are a lot of people who can write programs for computers. There are far fewer people who can create electronic devices reliably work in an outdoor, exposed environment. I started suspecting one reason so many charging stations want to use an app to collect payments online is because it’s easy to connect to Square or Cybersource or whatever. Making a card reader that supports magstripe, chip, or NFC and can survive being exposed to sun, rain, snow, ice, and extreme temperatures is a lot harder. Gas pumps have done this for decades, although I’m sure the roofs help, but even they had to turn to companies like Verifone when cards started using chips, and those companies didn’t make things easy (they’re why gas pumps play commercials now).

The other day I learned about fatbergs and the people tasked with climbing down into sewers with shovels to remove them. Can’t this be a job for AI? Please?

Robots do, there is anlot of automation now in big mines, Copper be extracted in ElTeniente mine in chile, in the middle of the andes and the “miners” can sit comfortably in a control room in the city of rancagua with a cup of coffee.

If a robot is being remote-controlled by a human, surely that’s using Real Intelligence, not Artificial Intelligence

It’s more important to them to get the educated out of their way
