Remove the word AI from the meme and you will have people in the comment section totally in support of self-checkout and self-driving trains.
The reality of the situation is that you do want these things because they're very popular you're just painting it with the word AI making it unfavorable on this particular platform.
What other nonsense.
Trains are already as "self driving" as they can safely be and with how many people a train can move compared to how few people need to manage one, there's already not much reason to go fully automate.
Denmark's metro's are fully automated and it's amazing.
Automation is good, there's just a teething period.
We mostly automated sewing and dishwashing which put people out of jobs, but in the long term it's been good
how does its full automation make it amazing to you?
I can sit in front in a "fake cockpit" and look out the front window.
But more importantly they run like clockwork, there's often a new metro every 7min they arrive and leave exactly when scheduled. I'm sure they also save money
realistically having a person onboard makes little difference at all to passengers (you regain a tiny bit of space at the front and end of each carriage segment where the driver usually sits - that’s about it). the argument is that they can run trains more frequently because the ongoing cost is lower so the only cost is an investment in rolling stock - generally seen as more viable because it’s an asset rather than just a cost
Kind of. It might be more fair that enshittification is making the traditional options less favorable.
I don’t specifically want to use self-checkout, but want to avoid the lines, hassle, slowness, and pushing affiliate cards that comes with a manned checkout these days. Self-checkout is only valuable in reference to how painful it is otherwise it.
Similarly trains : I don’t care what’s driving since I never come into contact with them but I prefer they not run off the tracks while texting and that they stop consistently. I especially hate when the ticket booth is empty and there’s no other way to pay. The kiosk is at least always there
