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.

None of these were particularly deep human interactions to begin with.

Something I couldn’t help but notice today. I work from home most days at my current job, but I’m in the office this week. I’m the sort of person who always looks strangers in the eye and says hello, or just a smile and nod.. today as I walked through the buildings to get lunch, not one single person acknowledged me. I almost always get at least a few responses or at least a smile. Today, nothing, every single person stared at the floor, or intentionally looked away when I made eye contact.

I get that there are folks uncomfortable with such interactions, and so I am not offended or upset if I don’t get a response, but despite being surrounded by people, I don’t remember feeling more alone.

Just wanted to share, seems relevant.

Actually, I wouldn't mind supermarket without cashiers. I'll be my own, thank you very much.

I think our best bet is to support local, co-ops, etc. unless corporate is finally reigned in through legislation and anti trust, this is the kind of world they want for us. A world devoid of human interaction.

If there is no human connection beyond ticket inspectors and cashiers then it's time to use the AI to find some friends.

[–] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 3 points 3 days ago (2 children)

You realise the AI will be the friend right?

He capitalizes almost as badly as Trump.

[–] Ryanmiller70@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 days ago

I only use self-checkout when it's an option no matter the business. I worked in a grocery store as a cashier for 11 years and all it did was make me hate people so I'm not gonna be part of the problem for somebody else.

This is why I support the Mechanicus, despite appearances you know there is a human brain in that machine somewhere.

The point is to isolate you, that way your easier to manipulate with social media algorithms

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

Convenience for the shop owner, not you.
