Major players in the IT industry, including Jeff Bezos and Nvidia Corp., have reportedly invested in Figure AI Inc., a startup creating human-like robots. The company is seeking to raise approximately $675 million in a funding round. The move comes as part of a rush to discover new uses for artificial intelligence.
The problem with this under capitalism is the working class won’t see any benefit from robots taking mental jobs. The remaining jobs can rely on desperation instead of better pay to attract workers. If we were under a system that supported ubi, then yeah robots can take whatever job idgaf, I could find something that makes me happy. But that isn’t how capitalism works
We do not live just in capitalism. There are different political flavors of it. We live in democratic capitalism, which I believe is the best combination so far discovered (or the least evil). UBI is not contradictive to democratic capitalism and I believe we will come to something like that at the end.
its just regular old capitalism, as its always been
