Last night, I had a long discussion with a friend of mine, during which time I expressed my amazement at the fact that there is only one U.S. presidential candidate in 2020 addressing the issue of automation and robotics future via UBI (Universal Basic Income), Andrew Yang. Check out some of our previous posts about Andrew Yang and his plans in dealing with automation and future high human unemployment rate:
- Andrew Yang, the Presidential Candidate For Humanity First & Success In 21st Century
- Andrew Yang, Presidential Candidate Addressing Critical Issues (Universal Basic Income, Medicare For All, Human-Centered Capitalism) & Believes In Humanity First
- How Value-Added Tax, VAT, Helps To Pay For UBI?
Yes, many of the human jobs will soon to be replaced by robots. Automation is no longer reserved for manufacturing jobs, but in service, trucking, and soon to seep into education, medicine, and law.
Below, are videos to help us to realize just where we can already find these automation/robots:
-
- The New Retail-powered supermarket formerly known as Hema has robots to serve your food, and now, to retrieve your dishes, too, in the video “Freshippo’s Robot Restaurant 2.0“, below:

- At Spyce, you place your order on a screen, and then your lunch is prepared by robots. Check out the video above to hear from the founders and see how a Spyce grain bowl compares to a more traditional fast causal lunch, in the video “In Boston, These Robots Are Now Serving Up $8 Salads and Bowls“, below:
-
- A pizza place in California is getting automated, with robots doing a good part of the pizza making. Carter Evans has more, in the video “Robotic pizza restaurant opens in California“, below:

- Ocado’s new warehouse has thousands of robots zooming around a grid system to pack groceries. The thousands of robots can process 65,000 orders every week. They communicate on a 4G network to avoid bumping into each other. Is this the future of retail? In the video “Inside A Warehouse Where Thousands Of Robots Pack Groceries“, below:

-
- Daimler is ready to put its driver assistance tech on the road with a semi-autonomous big rig, four years after the first prototype. We got a test ride in the truck where we watched it drive itself and pull off a pretty wild emergency braking maneuver, in the video “I rode a semi-autonomous truck at CES2019“, below:
-
- Self-driving cars are pretty cool. Really, who wouldn’t want to spend their daily commute surfing social media, chatting with friends or finishing the Netflix series they were watching at 4 am the night before? It all sounds virtually utopian. But what if there is a dark side to self-driving cars? What if self-driving cars kill the jobs? ALL the jobs? In the video “Will Self-Driving Cars Kill Your Job?“, below:

- AI GOES DEEP Things get strange – sometimes existential – when Hanson Robotics AI Sophia fields questions from the audience, a religious broadcaster, and CGTN’s Joshua Barlow – What do you think of her performance? In the video “CES 2019: AI robot Sophia goes deep at Q & A“, below:
The sooner the elected government officials realize what is coming, the better off the Americans’ lives will be.
