That is, yes things are warming up. Man is not the cause of it. Real science tells us that.
Only if "real science" is a bunch of blog posts by know-nothing trolls, and "not real science" is what is practised by every known physicist in the world.
it is pretty farfetched to think that people will make tons of very cheap well made consumer goods via robot and then not sell them to anybody
No, they will use robots and a small number of artists and designers to make limited numbers of very high-end goods (e.g. Rolex, Gucci, Aston-Martin, Bentley etc.) which they will sell to rich people. Everybody else will live in poverty, if they live at all.
The revolution promised by robotics and AI could well advance "workers" to the status of artists providing unique, handmade goods
Except: - there is only a very limited need for such goods unless they are of exceptional quality, and - only a small proportion of the population has the talent to make such goods.
They are having a hellava time meeting and sealing the deal with any male that they consider worthy.
They don't need a male that they consider worthy - they need sperm that they consider worthy. Hence sperm banks that seek out handsome, virile M.D. sperm, and not/. reader sperm.
Those visions you see in presentation are just there to not scare away potential engineers, the only actual use for this is in the military.
Or emergency responders. An ambulance that could take off from a car park, rescue someone from an upper story window of a building, and land at a nearby hospital would be great. Of course, the operator would be a licensed pilot.
It isn't, you idiot. When an astrophysicist refers to the universe as being "flat", he/she means in four-dimensional spacetime, not in our usual three dimensions. Checkmate, bible-banger.

The only negative thing I'll say about the Volt
Are you positive?

I live in Florida.
Well, that explains a lot.
Has anyone done the numbers?
Yes, bigly. Believe me.
People say they are the biggest anybody has ever seen.
"Futurist" is a special sub-species of "conman".
FTFY.

What about the other 90% of the population?
And the biggy that is relevant to this discussion: gullibility.

almost all (or all) living things are intelligent.
To a certain extent, yes. But not to the same extent.
e.g. (Humans, Chimps, Dolphins)>(Dogs, Horses, Cattle)>(Salamanders, Mosquitoes)>Trees> Fungi.
Take the Soviet Doomsday Machine for instance.
"You can't fight in here - this is the War Room!"
Strong AI does not exist.
Which is to say, "something that I define as not existing" does not exist.
Profound.
Frankly, it sounds more like paying to debug a final system which will drive itself.
That's exactly what it is.
All of these "self driving" features are in alpha test, and should never have been made accessible by ordinary drivers.
Volvo uses facial recognition as an example.
So if you look like an idiot it won't start?
That might actually work.
Yeah, they just on the dock of the bay, waistin' time.
If Tesla can sell the same hardware at different price points and still make a profit then the higher price point is simply capitalism.
FTFY.
Or maybe you're just making a joke that's not that funny.
Or maybe you're just a humorless asshole.
You're repeating yourself.
Most developed countries have declining populations projected for the indefinite future.
True, but 90+% of the people in the world live in undeveloped countries, and that is highly unlikely to change.
The fact that they can make something will never mean they will make something of high quality.
And you think people are willing to pay for "high quality"? If so, you've never been inside WalMart, or have seen a recent movie.
Calling Trump a fascist is straightforward unmitigated antisemitism.
Except Trump isn't a Jew, you idiot.
It isn't, you idiot.

with the same brain capacity and the same limited understanding of physics that we do. It's the most logical explanation.
Only if you equate "logical" with "baseless bullshit".
