Laws, unions and trust move slower than technology.
Opening4.3
Every wave of automation moved faster than experts predicted, from farming to factories.
Rebuttal5.8
The point about trust sounds strong until you look closer. Every wave of automation moved faster than experts predicted, from farming to factories. That matters because it is what happens in practice, not just in theory.
Rebuttal7.4
My opponent leans hard on happens. That ignores the bigger picture. New jobs keep appearing that nobody predicted, like the people who train and check AI. That matters because it is what happens in practice, not just in theory.
Closing8.4
AI will change most jobs, but doing most of them by 2040 is a big stretch. Remember, laws, unions and trust move slower than technology. Being able to automate is not the same as being allowed to. For all these reasons, I stand by my side.
Closing6.3
The question is not if, it is what humans do next. Remember, every wave of automation moved faster than experts predicted, from farming to factories. For all these reasons, I stand by my side.
