There were more than two million robots working in Chinese factories last year, according to a report released Thursday by the International Federation of Robotics, a nonprofit trade group for makers of industrial robots. Factories in China installed nearly 300,000 new robots last year, more than the rest of the world combined, the report found.
Nah. The plow improved society when everyone said the same thing.
The time can be invested in expanding and creating new things. Inbred societies that lost their industrial capacity only have the option to extract and reduce with gains and improvements. The capable use what they have to create more and new things. Puritan fuckwits believe they are in some kind of final state of technology. They aren’t even out of the stone age yet. The next era of major technologies is entirely biological. It is the key to sustainability. The USA forfeited that future for dogmatism and corruption in the medical field. All of the sciences require 5 sigma results except for medical. It is 3 stigma garbage. Things called breakthroughs in medical are insignificant irrelevant noise in physics, chemistry, and astronomy. One day biology will be fully understood and an engineering corpus. That is the day when true interstellar travel becomes possible. If we get to a complete understanding of biology before the next major planetary cataclysm, we will own the galaxy in 100k years. Planets are gravity prison cradles only suitable for the most primitive lifeforms.
The reason we are so backwards in the west is extremely simple, we are not a meritocratic. Wealth is inherited. All of our present leaders have inherited wealth. Business acumen and intelligence are not hereditary. There is no path that bridges from the masses to the top classes of society to lead by merit. The lack of potential growth and mobility has crushed the culture into dystopian decline. There is no mechanism to stop this inherited wealth cancer. It is terminal.
