    If Europe builds it's own CPU, GPU, NPU, etc. , EU will control it's destiny and it's robots , but watching how EU can't even control a manufactured War to steal their Assets, I wonder ….

    Earlier adopters of robot technology may make money, but the robot revolution is self limiting, as robots do not consume or pay taxes, so an economy that is based on extensive use of robots will stagnate and decline. There will be no market for the products and services that the robots produce. Essentially an unemployed human work force will not have the money to keep the economy running.
    It is also a fallacy that robot automation will replace many low skilled jobs. Robotics is expensive to buy, and it makes no sense replacing a low paid worker with a very expensive machine. The depreciation in the capital value of the asset, most likely will exceed the pay of the casually employed worker. It is artificial intelligence that will be taking over the role of the highly paid management and skilled workers, where the return on the investment is likely to be much higher in replacing wages and pensions.

    That said, there are jobs that machines will replace. Those where it is difficult to find the Labour willing to do the work, and where one machine can cost effectively do the work of many low skilled employees, for examp,e in the harvesting of agricultural crops. This should not come as any surprise, since the combine harvester has for decades replaced the work that was once done by a army of farm workers equipped with sickles and string. The newer technologies have the ability to identify and pick, produce that once required the sight and dexterity of a human. Produce such as fruit and soft vegetables.
    There are other jobs that will be taken by robots, simply because they are too dangerous, unpleasant or repetitive to attract human workers to the task.
    It is very likely that the use of robots will create additional jobs, with humans acting as supervisors. Complex machines are already used to carry out routine testing in many technical fields, such as biochemistry and engineering.
    What is clear is that business cannot afford to remove humans from the workforce, as they need human economic consumer power. It is the hidden driving force behind innovation. The only other model would be a system that paid people not to work. This is a utopian model, that does not stand any analysis, as it is quickly revealed to be dystopian in practice.
    The trick will be finding work for all the human skill levels, not everyone is caperable of being a computer programmer, engineer or scientist. It is questionable if even the best AI will be able to match the skills of some of the creative professions, such as journalist, or fiction writer. It maybe a long time before an AI truly thinks, and generates an original idea.
    So far robotic music compositions have been extremely poor quality, lack that spark of genius that we have yet to understand and copy in hardware.
    Today's robots are extremely impressive, some claiming to be as intelligent as a dog, but they really cannot match the size and behavioural performance of even the humble house fly.

    Just don't be stupid enough to allow corporations to be sole owner of the product you think you just purchased. If anything gets broken, and you are deprived of right to choose who should service your equipment, you yourself become redundant part of their business. We need regulating producers, they have to be legally obligated to publish the same schematics they use, make the tools they use available for third party service shops and prohibit binding silicon manufacturers with exclusivity deals.

The EU Commissioner for Enlargement Štefan Füle has announced on Twitter that negotiations with Ukraine on a trade pact have halted.

Referring to the country’s government, led by President Victor Yanukovych, Füle tweeted: “Words & deeds of President &government regarding#AssocAgreement further&further apart.Their arguments have no grounds in reality.”

Ukraine u-turned on its long-planned Association Agreement with the EU last month, shortly before it was due to be signed.

The government said the country could not afford to sacrifice trade with Russia by going ahead.

Damning CIA torture report ‘damages America’s standing’

Published

on



US lawmakers and the American public are reeling from a damning Senate report on CIA interrogation methods.

It claims the agency used brutal yet ineffective methods to extract information from detainees after the September 11 attacks in 2001.

President Barack Obama described the use of what’s been said to have amounted to torture as doing ‘significant damage to America’s standing in the world’:

“There is never a perfect time to release report like this but it was important for us I think t…
