Raw LLM Responses

@averytucker790 You cherry-pick the negative side effects, ignore the benefits, and ignore the possibility of fixing the issues. 1. Automated food production allowed you to not having to work on farms all of your life, just making enough to survive. With automation a small percentage of the population can feed the rest easily. This also allows much higher quality food. Cheap food is of course lower quality, that's true with or without automation. You can buy high-quality and healthy food, just have to pay more for it. 2. Automated service jobs free up humans to deal with more complex issues, instead of having to do mindless repetitive work and burn out quickly. Most automated services are better for the customers too. For example no automation means I have to physically go to a bank to get anything done. Low automation means I can call instead, but it's still slow and often limited to business hours. High automation means I can do it on my smartphone with a few clicks, any time. And the same is true for most things. I only want a human when I don't know what to do. And even that won't be true for long, because ChatGPT soon will be able to help in almost all of those cases too. 3. Meanwhile in reality, people are healthier and smarter than ever, with few exceptions, thanks to automation. Americans are fat because they are eating garbage food because their food industry is under-regulated. The rest of the world is doing much better with equal level of automation. Robots don't force you to sit on your ass all day. In fact your job is forcing you to do that most of the time. Office jobs are one of the main causes of health problems. Not having to work means you can spend more time outside and exercising. Poverty is an other one. Elimination of poverty gives everyone access to quality food. The food you eat is unhealthy because it has to be cheap for you to buy it, and they load it with sugar because it's addictive. But if you have a personal robot at home, it can cook you anything you want, you don't have to buy mass produced crap. And with money not being a factor, it can use the highest quality ingredients too. If you want your robots can grow all your food in your own garden. That's not even expensive, we don't do that only because it's highly labor intensive. 4. In reality most people use their free time actively, if they can. Passive consumption is mostly the result of exhaustion from work and not being able to afford a hobby. It's not just a theory, just look at those who don't work. For example rich people and retired people. How many of them you see who just sitting on the couch all day growing fat? Pretty much only those who physically unable to walk. Boredom is a very powerful motivator.
