RE: ADSactly Tech News: The Robotic Takeover of Construction and Homebuilding

in #construction6 years ago

I am really excited to see where to future goes. Letting robots construct our homes seems like a pretty good idea to me. Building a house, especially a large one, can be quite challenging for the workers over a long period of time. It's quite common to find poorly constructed pieces which would be expensive to fix. Robots are more "motivated" than human workers and have more consistency in what they build, this is what makes them the perfect employees.
However, the people doing this job right now must not be forgotten. They still need an income and they often miss qualification for a better-paid job. The idea of a universal basic income seems like a pretty reasonable approach to saving the existence of the people doing simple jobs, which will be automated in the near future.
