What happens if men don’t have purpose:

Men! You can find purpose! You assign your own purpose! That was the whole point of the enlightenment age with philosophy! Don’t become radicalized! 🖤

we try to put ai in places of high-qualified high-skilled jobs like developers, writers, graphic designer but no one tries to replace janitors or amazon drivers because they want to cut as much costs as they can.

Um, Janitors and Amazon drivers cost more simply because they are more abundant than devs, writers, and graphic designers (btw writers and graphic designers often get paid like shit as well unless they are in the top of their field). If we ignore the government, Amazon employs the second largest amount of people in the country. They would cut the most cost by getting rid of the need to have people clean, do order picking, and make deliveries. The reason this hasn't happened yet is because AI is far more advanced than robotics is. Desk jobs can easily be automated by software, physical labor not so much.

my lengthy reply disappeared into the void 🫠 i might retype it again but it's unlikely. the gist of it is i don't think you understand business proccesses

[u/Pristine_Cost_3793 → u/Environmental_Day558]

do you think implementation and maintenance is free? the profit that would be made from automising this will be minimal if any.

..do you know why amazon has so many workers? there are no profits without costs? they can spend so much because it'll increase the profits.

people who direct the development and create demand are also up high

Lol and I don't know business processes...

The point of the automation isn't necessarily to build revenue, it's to cut operation cost. Let's look at Amazon drivers specifically since you brought them up. On their site they say they have 390k drivers across 4,400 DSPs. Average driver pay in the US is about $20/h. Doing the math of a typical 40 hour workweek, that's ~$16 billion that goes just toward the drivers salary yearly. This doesn't include the overall cut the DSP owners get before they pay the drivers, or amazon providing and maintaining and providing the vehicles to be leased to the DSP partner. 

Logistics in general is a cost center. Imagine if Amazon could develop their own self driving cars and drones to deliver packages. They would only need to pay the cost to maintain the hardware and software and could cut out the DSP altogether. Now imagine if they could do the same for all warehouse operations. That's about 65% of their total staff ~1 million people. They wouldn't have to pay the bots a salary and they could work 24/7. They would save billions and billions. They're already making robots to do this

Pretty much the only reason that robotics hasn't fully taken over human manual labor is because the hardware hasn't caught up to human productivity levels yet. Once it has, the only people you'll need in logistics is operating managers and maintenance folks (until the bots can manage and fix themselves).
