I find it humorous thinking about car dealerships replacing human salespeople with robots. Its so much easier to tell a robot to stick it where the sun doesn't shine than a human being given our social nature. Robots as sales people I think are going to be about as effect as a much cheaper billboard, and we haven't replaced all sales lab…
I find it humorous thinking about car dealerships replacing human salespeople with robots. Its so much easier to tell a robot to stick it where the sun doesn't shine than a human being given our social nature. Robots as sales people I think are going to be about as effect as a much cheaper billboard, and we haven't replaced all sales labor with billboards yet. So I'm not sure why robots would be any better. Also its the same reason why its easy for us to mass murder NPC's in video games, but the overwhelming majority of human beings wouldn't even have the thought of killing another person cross their mind. Honestly I think full sensory immersion VR if possible will actually be the most labor destructive force our species will ever see, and might answer the fermi paradox. Taking a page out of Gad Saad, most of the junk we consume revolves around sexual signaling and status signaling. If you get VR that is as real as this world there goes 99.9% of female sexual capital (assuming a pornographic function, which I'm assuming would be the first thing they do with the tech, much less do it at some point) and subsequently every purchase that revolves around that collapses with it (at least insofar as its men trying to have sexual access to women). It also hollows out virtually every adrenaline activity (amusement parks, skydiving, skiing, motocross ect...), probably travel and leisure too: why go to Jamaica and spend all that money running the risk of rainy weather when you can go to simulated Jamaica where it never rains, the water is always more translucent, and algae never blooms ect?
