Why are we talking about replacement? Just eliminate them, and save the robots for something useful.
Most in tech will be replaced by AI Robots?
"We thank you for your service but we will no longer need you."
Why not just replace them with a vegetable or something else that is low cost?
What moniker does Tat go under now?
And all management, government or corporate, could be replaced with robots. Better, yet simply use killer robots to eliminate government and corporate management.
Actually, most government employees could be replaced by passive mannequins with a dial-a-curse, rude tape loop. A robot who did anything would be doing more than the average government employee.
Marcus should be worried.
He supports globalization for everyone else except teachers. Will be long time before robots can be trained to teach math well.
By the time that happens, humans probably have to be concerned about robots being sentient
Most regulations could be consolidated, and most government workers could be replaced by hamsters.
Robots are nothing but a philosophical anthropological sub-conscience effort at achieving immortality...
then they will need to program the robots to act like the workers I have seen in guvment jobs.
For instance when a new human female is hired and she talks to a long term robot guy, well call him Jerome, about how to due her job; soon after a robot worker traps her in the elevator; correctly programmed it says to the new human female worker "why you sleeping with my husband" she responds Jerome? "why you sleeping with him"
When you confront the robot Jerome about this he response should be "i don't even know that bitch someone programmed that dam robot wack!"
When you take your complaint to your manager robot boss the proper programmed response from your boss is (and most always is in guvment jobs) "Do what you gotta do"
Happens everyday; mostly in County Guvment Jobs! If you think I am joking then obviously you have never worked for the County of Los Angeles!
Robots will create more jobs than they take, to think otherwise is superstition.
DMV is prime candidate.
Here in Maryland you can even do an emissions test on your car by yourself now via the OBDII port. It's quick and easy, and there was no line when I went to do it (somebody else's car). Just need a 2011 or newer car.
Just take the word government out of the title and you'd be correct.
We, as a civilization, really need to think about how the economy is going to function when labor is worthless.

Teaching mathematics to apes will no longer be required.
Ninety percent of all workers, public, private and self employed can and will be replaced by robots

Most Government Workers Could Be Replaced By Robots, New Study Finds
A study by a British think tank, Reform, says that 90% of British civil service workers have jobs so pointless, they could easily be replaced by robots, saving the government around $8 billion per year.
The study, published this week, says that robots are “more efficient†at collecting data, processing paperwork, and doing the routine tasks that now fall to low-level government employees. Even nurses and doctors, who are government employees in the UK, could be relieved of some duties by mechanical assistants.
The problem, Reform says, is that public sector employee unions have bloated the civil service ranks, forcing government agencies to keep on older employees, and mandating hiring quotas for new ones. The organizational chart looks like a circuit board—and there’s no incentive to streamline anything.
Unfortunately for civil service workers, it seems the study is just the latest in a series of research that won’t save their jobs. Oxford University and financial services provider Deloitte, both of whom comissioned their own studies concur with Reform‘s conclusions. The Oxford University study said that more than 850,000 public sector jobs could fall to robots over the course of the next decade.
