    And a competent human dishwasher gets a better clean than a machine. That’s not going to stop their adoption. They will just keep some fraction of the workforce previously performing a given task to check answers.

      Yeah, unfortunately I think that both corporations and consumers have shown that they prefer the cheap option rather than whatever not-as-cheap options might offer in terms of quality, sustainability, environmental protection, lack of child slavery… you know, luxuries like that.

      And that is speaking in general, mass-market terms of course. There are often options for those who care about the things I jokingly referred to as luxuries. But when something like that is niche instead of a widespread basic expectation, it gets priced as a luxury. Ugh.

        I don’t think this a preference question. More like something intrinsic to a society based on market.
