AI & AI Robots: 3 steps to “we aren’t ready!”

If leading experts are correct, AI robots are coming and will take our jobs, so how will we afford robots to make our lives better?

So far, there have been 3 steps, to understanding what is coming: 1) Seeing how already in 2024 AI and Robots have already reached a tipping point, 2) Reading what the experts say before dismissing the threat to jobs and assuming that new jobs will be created as they have in the past, 3) Understanding that Univeral Basic Income (UBI) won't be enough.

Elon Musk and others currently propose a form of Univeral Basic Income UBI as the future, but the future for people like Elon Musk who work on and profit from the AI and Robots seems much clearer than for those who made redundant. How does Elon Musk asking for remuneration valued at $55 billion while Tesla is laying off over 10% of staff consistent with a world where everyone enjoys wealth through AI?

If this AI and robot future is real, then the entire capitalist system needs at least serious revision, and the solution may come from everyone owning robots.

AI & Employment

AI Robots as Job Terminators?

From even back in 2016 there have been a virtual barrage of reports warning that robots and automation could displace even over 50% of the workforce in the next few decades. Now in 2024 with AI robots, is it still safe to predict jobs will remain as a solution to wealth distribution? During the almost 300 years of the industrial revolution growth age, new jobs have soon emerged to take the place of those replaced by automation, but although it is repeatedly claimed that this shows how technology creates as may jobs as it makes redundant, this deeper look makes it clear it's not technology that's been creating those new jobs, and as with Aesop's fable of the boy who cried wolf, while we may have lost faith in the profits of job losses, it doesn't mean those job losses will never arrive.

AI Potential

Robot types and technologies: AI universal robots change everything.

As robots have been around since the 1950s, and humanoid robots have existed in science fiction over a century, it can easily be overlooked how AI humanoid robots could change our entire society and economic system when previous robots, which can be considered as specialist robots, didn't have that much impact. This is a look at the types of robots and technologies behind the changes.

AI Threat

AI Robots: Will AI take life to a new level or end it?

AI does not yet join all the dots to be seen as life and the threat to humans over the next phase is from other humans controlling AI, but our destiny is determined when it becomes the joining of those last dots becomes inevitable and AI as a new level of life that will then surpass us is locked in. That AI could rise to shape the future of life, does fit with existing life on Earth. Although it is common to think of all life as a continuum from simple to complex, but from another perspective, life can be divided 4 distinct levels, and with a 5th level potentially now emerging. Every time life "levels up" the new level of life provides a new step in the mechanisms of evolution, which has at least so far allowed each new level to be able to shape the future of the planet. Will AI Robotic life become a new level and what might that mean for us on level 4?

AI parrots EV misinformation: Regen Myths and “Only charges the battery”.

Commenced: August 30, 2026

I have another more general video on the main channel on the far greater dangers of AI parroting misinformation, but this video focuses on three specific questions related to EVs where the web can contain at least as many copies of the wrong answer as the right answer and that leads to AI just rehashing the wrong answer.Welcome to One Finite Planet, a channel on our journey to a new age, today focusing on how AI can amplify and perpetuate misinformation. First the principle, then three examples. Two on how regen works, or in fact doesn't work, and another on "the generator is only used to charge the battery myth."

Purpose/Mission/Vision: AI Makes Defining Our Purpose Imperative: Custodianship and Prosperity of complex intelligent life of Earth?

Commenced: July 28, 2026

Do we need a purpose? If so, why not simply "custodians of life"? How we're not the real threat and this mission does require us? and the role of AI -- these are key questions i feel are in need of being addressed. Welcome to One Finite Planet, a channel on our journey to a new age, today questioning whether AI increases the need for a unifying purpose.

AI + Self-Driving Car Sensors Explained: LIDAR vs Radar, Cameras & Ultrasonic.

Commenced: September 24, 2025

From the youtube description: Self-driving cars rely on more than just hype — they need sensors that can actually “see” the road. In this video, we break down the four key sensor types: LIDAR, radar, cameras, and sonar. You’ll learn the pros and cons of each technology, the myths surrounding LIDAR, and how these sensors shape the future of AI, robotics, and autonomous vehicles. Whether you’re curious about Tesla’s approach, Waymo’s choices, or the broader race toward full autonomy, this guide gives you the foundation to understand what’s really going on behind the buzzwords.

AI & Robots: The Class Revolution That Will Change Everything

This is just the introduction, and a series of pages/videos will follow on will AI & robots exterminate us, updates on technical progress and breakthroughs, and on how, whether, as technology as done in past, AI & Robots, driven increases productivity will result in more jobs becoming viable. But this page/video prefixes those points with a look at the long term goal: where are we heading, and concludes and we are headed for a revolution with who benefits from that revolution not yet clear.
