Robots vs humans

Well, who do you think would build the robots or even program them? I think that should be the question here.

The problem with this solution is that it requires every human at work to have a degree in engineering and computer programming in order to fix these robots in case they malfunction during work. Keep in mind that not every person wants to pursue a career in engineering or computer programming and would rather want to take a different career that they're more interested in like firefighting or teaching, which will be unfortunately be taken by robots.
 
yes it has to start with a human, but that doesn't mean all that many humans will be required in programming-related fields once robots can learn to reprogram themselves and each other. it's gonna be a problem.
 
but a human will need to do the initial programming, and if the demand for these grow, the programming-related fields will be the place to be

this is how i see it anyway

You don't need a piece of paper listing credentials to dictate what you can do, so your statement of only people with degrees in engineering and computer programming is false. Anyone can program something, so long as they are willing on how to learn to do it, and it doesn't require a degree to learn how to program.
 
if we are talking about any sort of repetitive tasks that are currently done by people being automated, then yes I believe that will be the trend.

Of course, this does mean people will have to be re-skilled to suit other roles and I think that it is an inevitable outcome that will have to be accepted.

While programming is a subject mainly taught at higher education, I believe that in future generations learning to program will be like learning a second language in secondary education or maybe lower, as technology become part of growing up and a key aspect of modern life.
 
Been watching AMC lately?

Can a robot program itself? in the case that humans are no longer useful for the task, would it be efficient to make robots learn to program, then have humans leave it to them? Cuz I feel that the economy may take a hit.

But more importantly, can robots take better care of the environment that us humans? This is a question I will explain further as its own separate thread.
