Lets see AI/robots rewire a house, or build an extension, or convert a loft.

Future is in the building trade. IT is fooked though.

indeed, however one of the points they made was that as the middle class were laid off there would be less money about so trades would be poorer.

They think the IT thinkers will stay but I suspect they will be offshored.

So that's me sparky to the stars!

Have a play with this:

Actually there are already manufacturers that build the houses in two parts. They build the ground floor and deliver the fully built first floor to site complete with fitted bathrooms.

It's not to hard to see that done with printing/robotic processes. Especially now all homes are supposed to by built for wheel chairs

They're building housing estates like mad where I live, and everyone it brick built, traditional construction with 1000's of workers involved, taking over 12 months to complete each one.

AI/Robots threat is 100 years off. I will be retired and living the high life in 5 years.
