Well I came a long way since that first post. That was just my initial thought on the OP. I do think there is cause to worry. Agreed.
Come on Moreno. Everybody knows the New World Order is great. Big brother is wonderful not to mention charming. Don’t you see what the state has in store for everyone concerning the future?
Isn’t this what the people who blindly worshiped government and authority for several generations always wanted?
Hasn’t this always been their dream and grand vision?
Well now, they’ve got their wish finally.
As the old saying goes, be very careful for what you wish for.
Re-read the edit. Nice try.
At a certain point, however, the new technologies are not merely replacing bodies, but minds, and that is where technology is a long term threat to employment.
There are many jobs where people want specifically to interact with a human being, not something that is like a human being: customer service, care services, I’m sure there are many more. There is a comfortableness and bias at work that may be healthy. Why would this preference for human employment in those positions go away? When there are robots indistinguishable from human beings? I don’t think we are anywhere near close to that point and I invite examples that oppose my belief if there are any.
fuse:Nice rosy glasses you have there that puts a positive spin on everything where this is a cause to worry about anything.

What specifically should I pay attention to in the edit and what was I trying to do?

Are you familiar with Japanese robotic love dolls? Cosmetics are advancing concerning robots.
“Hi, my name is Tina. I’ll be your robotic waitress today.”
“Hi, my name is medical unit 335. I’ll be performing your surgery today.”
Doubt all you want. It’s coming if they have their way about it.

The isn’t part. You know what you were trying to do. Let’s not play coy.
Anywho…
Link about that medical robot that has conversation with the patient about performing a surgery?
About the other stuff, I don’t doubt it. But is it more of a fad? Are people globably okay with robots taking over the majority of those positons?
Not playing coy, call me out on what you think I’m doing.

Robotic surgery, computer-assisted surgery, and robotically-assisted surgery are terms for technological developments that use robotic systems to aid in surgical procedures. Robotically-assisted surgery was developed to overcome the limitations of minimally-invasive surgery and to enhance the capabilities of surgeons performing open surgery.
In the case of robotically-assisted minimally-invasive surgery, instead of directly moving the instruments, the surgeon uses one of five methods to control the instruments; either a direct telemanipulator or through computer control. A telemanipulator is a remote manipulator that allows the surgeon to perform the normal movements associated with the surgery whilst the robotic arms carry out those movements using end-effectors and manipulators to perform the actual surgery on the patient. In computer-controlled systems the surgeon uses a computer to control the robotic arms and its end-effectors, though these systems can also still use telemanipulators for their input. One advantage of using the computerised method is that the surgeon does not have to be present, but can be anywhere in the world, leading to the possibility for remote surgery.
In the case of enhanced open surgery, autonomous instruments (in familiar configurations) replace traditional steel tools, performing certain actions (such as rib spreading) with much smoother, feedback-controlled motions than could be achieved by a human hand. The main object of such smart instruments is to reduce or eliminate the tissue trauma traditionally associated with open surgery without requiring more than a few minutes’ training on the part of surgeons. This approach seeks to improve open surgeries, particularly cardio-thoracic, that have so far not benefited from minimally-invasive techniques.

The rest of the world?

I’ll reduce it to a simple misunderstanding for now.

Okay, I re-read it again, and I don’t understand.
It seems you interpreted me as playing down any cause to worry. I actually really am legitimately concerned about the future of technology. I have mixed feeling about our advancements, utilization, and control of technology especially where governments and large corporations are in the picture.
But the robotic surgeons don’t take over the role of a full doctor, do they?
Do they actually greet the patient and the patient never talks with a human doctor?

A misunderstanding then. No worries.

Not yet…
Key word.

When the majority of the population is against their plans and they feel their power is threatened.
A little fun here. :-"

Okay, so I just think it is reasonable to believe that people are biased toward their fellow human beings for certain positions and that people will continue to have this bias.

Kill off 95% of the global population through a eugenics and Malthusian style ideology. Problem solved.
Easy to implement also especially if you control 75% of the global economic wealth.

Until the day they don’t because the people with power, money, and influence decide that they shouldn’t.
Are we beginning to see things yet?

Well if you seriously believe such plans are in motion (I don’t) what information do you know about this?

Go to a popular national university and look up some professors. Ask them what they really think about human global population and natural resource sustainability in the long run.
Then, while your at it ask them about how they envision the future.
Also understand that a majority of their opinions very much correlate with the private corporations that pay them.
Look up some of the most powerful individuals on the planet and read their memoirs or public commentary.
Are you good with seeing patterns?
