Of course. He doesn't call it "robot labor" - that's Newsweek's term. He discusses automation. redqueen Oct 2019 #4
We all should let it be known that we will not "work" with robots at stores. oldsoftie Oct 2019 #2
Some people refuse to use automated checkouts. It hasn't changed much. redqueen Oct 2019 #5
There are waves of automation coming... Newest Reality Oct 2019 #3

Ah no, there's lots of jobs that can't easily be automated redqueen Oct 2019 #8
Well of course your right, they can't exactly automate lawyers. At least not yet. YOHABLO Oct 2019 #9
Well, now that you mention it... :) redqueen Oct 2019 #10
Yes!! MORE FOCUS ON TECHNICAL & LESS ON OVERPRICED COLLEGES!! oldsoftie Oct 2019 #14
This is yet another reason I switched from Bernie to Yang redqueen Oct 2019 #16
On Point Radio/WBUR/Boston did a show last spring about robots in grocery stores irisblue Oct 2019 #11
Thanks! redqueen Oct 2019 #17
That program has covered that topic at least once more. irisblue Oct 2019 #20
Just like climate change, we aren't going to face what's coming, & that will make it worse. CrispyQ Oct 2019 #12
Exactly - it's coming at us faster than most realize. redqueen Oct 2019 #18
This guy is all over the place. nt Skidmore Oct 2019 #13
