How Robots Can Assist – Not Replace – Humans In Factories
On average there are 84 robots for every factory 10,000 workers, according to the International Federation of Robotics. For years, robots have had a bad reputation for stealing workers’ jobs. The rise of robots in factories has also increased the possibility of injury. Traditionally, robots needed to operate in separate spaces from humans.
Collaborative robots, or cobots, have been working with humans on the factory floor for years, but when it comes to the large-scale industrial robots that can lift and move massive pieces of manufacturing, the danger to human workers is so great that the robots are bolted down to the factory floor behind fences so a human never comes near them.
Veo Robotics recently rolled out its new sensor technology, which gives robots spatial awareness of every object and obstacle in their reach.

It's the future and it's going to happen this is why education is so important. Right now 50% of Americans have skills beyond high school this needs to be higher we need to match the world leader which is Canada with 60% of its workforce having a skill beyond high school.

Robot tax is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Robots need to be researched, invented, built and maintained, which are already taxed services. Robots don't just magically appear and do the job endlessly.

This technology actually has long term benefits. They will not beat full automation when it comes to general goods, but luxury goods can now be "handcrafted" by artist or designers. Trust me, this will become a big market for the upper class, and that's big money.

A wise old man taught me that machines were invented to help people, as we work at our own pace; we were not made to keep up with machines at their pace.
this is a scary road that makes work miserable, having an employer time out the actions of a robot/machine, in order to rush all the employees at unsafe, repetitive motion injury levels
we need a future that puts people first, not machines or cash for the 1%

well, it may very well work out that the factory workers of the future will be coders. Coding will probably become ubiquitous that it becomes almost valueless.

Anybody going to consider that this will earn more money for these companies, increasing their profit, and allowing them to expand and create more jobs anyway. They really aren't taking jobs away.

Why are people so afraid of automation and autonomous technology taking over?
It's the equivalent of removing horses as a daily means of transportation.
How were also replacing traditional farms with vertical farms.
People are scared because of money but you're not thinking clearly if machines are capable of replacing us able to produce goods and provide services we no longer need the concept of money.
this is not communism or socialism or any other ISM that has existed in our world because we've never had this ability before in the past it's something completely new.
We can finally replace ourselves and free ourselves and solve the problems that exist in this world because of money all the horrible things that you can think of that people do for money could be eliminated.
We would no longer have an excuse when it comes to improving our world and our relationships with each other.
All the things that people run and donate for could be solved because money would no longer need and I repeat need to exist.
As long as we had the resources energy and the know-how to produce the good and provide services we can achieve anything.
People are so afraid that they hold us back from moving forward to a better world you live in a country where you're afraid of cartels this is how you get rid of them money is what drives these people and the power they get from that money could be eliminated human trafficking child slavery etc could be eliminated if you truly care about those things and the world let's get rid of money let's allow the machines to replace this in the workforce.
do you really want to listen to some stranger who has so much control over your family's well-being money does nothing but enslave us all.

They are right about how robots will not be able to replicate human ingenuity, it is the same with the nursing field. Unless in the next 5 decade or so they will start to create a OS software that are able to create social interactions, and some sort of evolving command center while you are interacting, honestly, to me that is si -fi bull crap, but although possible if companies, and economies desires a cheaper, strong, and tough product. It is really depends on us of what we buy and use our product. I think that to engineer a robot that is closely a replica of a human is impossible, but possible. What I mean by that is that whatever the next technology is it can result into that idea, possibly not because it is si-fi, but more purely because of competition and capitalism. It is impossible because the materials, time, and cost of making one is really difficult. I would say if we want to make robots or tech products to be friendly, and not a weird twisted terminator. There is other ways for economics to still heavily rely on human beings more so a support aspect/supplement esq.

It's crazy to add more tax burdens on robot tech companies. Who actually wants to do these tedious tasks anyways? What if we had never moved on from weaving clothes by hand and adding machines to replace the job? We wouldn't have time/ opportunities to do better things with our time. I think it's ludicrous this proposition of wanting to slow down robot technology. We all need to adapt and improve on what we can do, otherwise we'll never grow in society. In my opinion we should lower taxes on robot tech companies to push the advancement of technology
