Isn't the Star Trek-like utopia one where half a dozen people get to do all the work/have fun and another thousand tag along for the thrill of the risk of being blown up once a week?
Who needs kilobots when they can sneak a disease in through vaccines? Not only that but the poor people will even pay for it themselves.
All they have to do is wait until almost everyone is vaccinated where the disease will sit dormant in your DNA quietly replicating, to your children even, until triggered by a small chemical key, probably released through high altitude spraying. If they engineered it right (or paid the workers to engineer it right), people will decompose rapidly and with no smell and even the bones will turn into dust - so overall no mess for their robots to clean up either.
How large can a wealth gap be theoretically? I have clean, drinkable running hot water, a nice big warm house and all the organic food I can eat, have more cars than I can drive. What else is there because I am looking for things to buy.
Hot air is all that is keeping the new slashdot going. I wish they'd go to the old slashdot that talked about tech, but apparently there aren't any more of those either.

Getting rid of the second amendment is a much needed step so we can take their guns away.

They mean poorer intellectually.
Much of the US population is armed
Not if we can disarm them first. Baby steps
What is the point of anything? Serious question
Uh, that someone would be me. AMA

Fuckit, the governor on my steam engine is AI
They're releasing an app for that.
Thanks Slashdot!
Pretty sure they mean overall, not individually
I know people who are saying they're going to move to Canada/
Nice try, google AI, but you still fail at being a convincing human
I have one robot. It does everything, covers the entire campus, runs on a single computer and has over 18,000 arms, manipulators and conveyor belts.

What's the difference between a tipping point and a bifurcation point?
You have fun with your revolt. I'll build my own robot.
Thank you.
But they're buying a lot more with what they do get paid.
Nerds are sounding more like the Amish every day
