So yknow how it’s like. robots are gonna revolutionise the workplace and shit bc they’re gonna free our hands of repetitive and boring tasks, giving people more time to manoeuvre and explore different things and this is gonna improve mental health and stuff (ignoring the effects unemployment is gonna have as insistently as physics ignores air resistance) and that’s great and all,, since the companies and stuff are also gonna have ‘more reliable’ and less humane workers to exploit and stuff.
but.
can you say that robots are more hardworking? than humans? considering the obstacles that hold us back like mental health issues and physical barriers (it’s not realistic at all to expect a human to work for 8 hours straight) and stuff, and how none of those really affect robots, can u quantify hard work? work, sure, because u can just see what wasn’t done before a certain time period and then what was done after, but hardwork. like the effort they put in. can you measure how much effort a robot puts in?
bc for humans we measure that based on their body language and stuff, but how does that work for robots??
