A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Having robots to do grunt work and that somehow being bad for our society is just the dumbest timeline. Fucking cunts
There are many people who can only do grunt work. If they don’t have a means to make money, society will unravel.
Only if we continue to be dumbasses
We need to take universal basic income more seriously as a future policy
In my experience there are two groups of people who don't take UBI seriously.
If you’ve been paying attention to society over the last 5-10-15-50 years you’ll see precisely that this concept will never be implemented. It would take catastrophe and the destruction of current society.
I share your pessimism tbh
