Whatever they might be able to replace humans for, they can’t do it anywhere as cheaply as a human. So, the results would need to be very valuable. Outside of scientific research, which would still need to be verified and refined by humans, I don’t see a sustainable use for these things. They’re way, way too costly to use as a toy for the masses, that will soon be shut down.

the entire point of work is that a living being has to do it in order to create value (it can exchange) for survival.
a robot has no needs. a machine does not survive. a digital program does not live.
at the beginning of the work preocess, no matter how many layers of tools, devices and machines, layers of management, trade and logistics, is always a human. and that human needs to know all about how those tools, devices and machines work, or rather how to work with them. they have to understand management communications, count trade and logistics into every single action, all of that, for every work process.
and the oligarchy simply is not capable of that. the only thing they have is the management part, but only orders downwards and responses from below. that is all the work experience billionaire ceos have. and no single person, not even hundreds if not thousands, can possibly understand all that is necessary to upkeep the necessities of modern industrial life. only the collective of the working people can.
holy frog kinda drifted into mad agitprop rn ngl
