      Automation is only seen as a negative because of capitalist relations. In a socialist economy it just means more free time for people to enjoy as they like.

          Why would it be satire. In case you’re not familiar with the concept of socialism, it’s a system where the means of production are publicly owned and directed towards meeting the common needs of people living in a country. The only goal of work is to create things that people need to live well. When this work can be automated then there is less work for people to do collectively.

            I know what socialism is, I just wouldn’t call China a socialist country. There are socialist elements, but ultimately it’s the same kind of oppressive, authoritarian bullshit we same in the former USSR and its satellite states.

              Claiming that China and USSR aren’t socialist quite clearly illustrates that you do not in fact know what socialism is.

    I’m pretty sure there are western ports that have been fully automated for a while, like Hamburg for example? But entirely sure what AI has to do with this though…

      Western ports are nowhere close to being entirely automated, meanwhile it’s pretty obvious what AI has to do with things like building autonomous robots.
