MY ROBOT WIFE

In states where the minimum wage has increased to $20 an hour, the first businesses to start converting to AI are the fast food restaurants. At the order station, instead of an employee speaking to you over the speaker and asking for your order, it’s a robot AI that speaks to you and takes your order.

All sorts of different mechanical robots are coming off assembly lines now that are highly mechanically capable and with AI brains. No doubt they’re very expensive, but over time they will pay for themselves with free to low cost labor, and as more robots replace workers, production will increase, more will be made and the price will steadily drop even as their quality increases.

The movie AI Artificial Intelligence came out in 2001, about a future where very humanoid robots were doing all the work, and sex robots were very popular for obvious reasons. No sexually transmitted diseases, and no obligations. Lifelike sex dolls are popular now and soon they’ll be fully animated and intelligent. This is going to play hell with the prostitution industry, no doubt, and will also result in a steep decline in the birth rate as robots become more popular than real women. And men.

What a strange, strange future we’re heading into.
