What is the advantage of autonomous trains over regular? It seems to me that when driving a train is your job, the autonomy just takes it away.

If we didn't have capitalism, people wouldn't need jobs. We could automate jobs away and instead of starving, people would just have more free time

Some people enjoy driving trains.

Yes, that should still be allowed. But people shouldn't have to drive trains to live

[-] Num10ck@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

theres countless mountains of actual work to be done that couldn't be automated.

[-] HardlightCereal@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Yeah, and we should focus all our time and effort on those problems instead of wasting time driving trains.

Ok, name a system better than capitalism then

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Reduced capitalism, increased socialism.

Some capitalism is okay. But unfettered capitalism is not. We have the latter.
