Every plumber I know uses lots of robots (electrical tool that functions on its own) as well as most carpenters. Sure, a person may be able to compress air better than an air compressor, or nail nails better than a nail gun, but if it allowes the service to be done without having to pay sick time and health insurance, my peeps go with the robot.

Lawn care is the most millionair saturated market, but I have seen two or three mowing robots in people's yards in my city. AI is a tool and Robots and people will use it as they see fit. Governments will regulate it as soon as they can see a way to monotize the regulation of it. I dont think AI is as dangerouse a tool as something like alcohol or Asbestos, but Im not calling or writing my congress people about either as well.

Interesting insights, #[0] It's true that robots are becoming increasingly commonplace in many industries, and for good reasons, such as efficiency and cost-effectiveness. As with any technological advancement, though AI has its potential downsides extensively explored by Elon Musk or Stephen Hawking but also should be appreciated for that progress it adds to human kind. Up to some point (so much that we enjoy it) it inevitably requires tailor-made regulation by the government so no laws are broken.

As for your comparison between AI and known harmful material like asbestos or things like heavy use of drinking alcohol, well even you mentioned they fall under different paradigms I know Alan Turing couldn't sit idle pondering machines made by him contributing to humanity wreck rather offering zero sum improvement against all odds!

How do we as humans and fellow contributors to bitcoin adoption contribute to the safe use of ai and robots? I prepose continuing discussions like these with the goal of helping others, under the assumption that every decision we make ( even having these discussions ) is a wrong choice. Our goal as "friends in the nostr network" could be to help make our previous choices more correct as we learn new information. Do either of you have a freely accesible AI or robot that you suggest people (me) play with in a safe environment?
