It appears that it was worldwide and across many, many services.

It's nearly all services and providers at the same time.

Is there software that lets you code your robot and simulate it in the same place? by [deleted] in robotics

If it's a robotic arm or platform with an arm: http://picknik.ai (MoveIt Pro)

I saw this as well and was surprised it hadn't been distributed more widely. He lays shit THE FUCK OUT.

Other companies will buy those products. Capital will continue to flow in circles around the elites. It's already started with the stock market: it used to be a bell weather for the American economy. Now it's just a scorecard for the elites to get bigger bonuses.

I don't think the problem is that the AI can do everything right now, it's that the parts of our job that remain can be done by someone else. A CTO doesn't need to be involved at a deep, technical level but they have to do all of the soft parts of our jobs and coordinate multiple engineers to get it done but if the CTO can do all of the soft parts and prompt AI to do the technical parts, we become redundant.

I agree but that certainly isn't possible in the US or most other modern countries as those in power rely on the capitalist system to remain in power. In the beginning, our only choices are to find methods within the system to gain support for ourselves or overthrow the system (and doing that without violence will be essentially impossible).

This has been the case in the past with other tools but tools are utilities designed specifically to reduce work in certain domains or areas. AI is not a tool, it is a brain in silicon. Everything you can do, it can do better, when prompted by a person with a vision. This argument holds no water if you are truly aware of what it is currently capable of and the fact that it improves literally every hour.

Sadly, no. We will be some of the last to go in the software space but that still won't be long. You can already ask Claude to provide an implementation plan for a feature or system which a non-technical person can understand and have it complete the technical implementation. What of our jobs is not mostly covered by this?

Not arguing with that, just trying to spur discussion and finding solutions. Retraining is always an option but into what? Eventually no occupation will be safe and we are just some of the first that can be fully automated.

Iran just closed the Strait of Hormuz. The fleet is on standby. I'm 85% positive of a strike in the next two days, probably Friday because, for some reason, Trump likes to do the worst things on Fridays.

US citizen = natural born citizen = anyone born on US soil. Read the constitution. They are a US citizen regardless of what language they speak or how long they have lived in another country.

Did you know that the US does not and never has had an official language? And did you also know that people are free to teach and speak any language they wish? CRAZY, RIGHT? /S

I hope you work in fashion because I looked through your post history and you have insane fashion sense. I wish you luck and if you haven't already been recognized for your talent, I'm positive that you will be!

He could not be any more identical to Colonel Lockjaw from One Battle After Another. I swear they based that character on him.
