    Nobody is saying that but reading a headline that says “Construction company prints some walls!” and then saying “welp that’s it they’re out here just 3D printing whole ass buildings” is pretty uh… Dumb.

      And the picture says “your skills are irreplaceable.” If you truly believe that basic construction is irreplaceable then I have bad news for you.

        I have bad news for you because it seems obvious you have never done basic construction: You’re not replacing builders with computers any time soon.

        The point is that literally right now houses are not being 3D printed to a good enough standard that we would even think about replacing workers.

        It is also true that technological progress will change that sooner or later.

        I don’t think there’s a disagreement here
