Robots on the assembly line. Addictive algorithms in your feed. Where's the regulation?

Описание: South Korea wants to legislate against AI replacing workers.
Meta's algorithm is on trial for addicting children.
Two stories from my Ticker interview with Ahron Young this morning.

On South Korea's AI worker protection legislation:
Hyundai plans to mass produce Atlas humanoid robots across assembly lines by 2028.

Cost per robot: roughly $9,700 a year. Human workers: $130 million annually.

China and India are already running "dark factories", fully automated, no humans, 24/7 production.

South Korea's response: introduce laws to stop workers being replaced.
History says this doesn't work. Ask the Australian car industry.
Laws can't keep up with AI's evolution. But they can support workers through the transition.

New roles will emerge, quality assurance, change management, AI integration leadership.

The challenge is having the foresight to see where they'll be needed and making sure people have the skills to fill them.

On Meta's algorithmic addiction trial:
A landmark US case is claiming Instagram and YouTube were deliberately designed to addict children.

A 2015 email from Zuckerberg told staff to increase time spent on Meta platforms by 12%.

When time-on-platform is your metric, you're incentivising addiction by design.

The algorithm feeds you more of what you engage with. You post, you check for likes, you come back. Repeat.

The tobacco industry put nicotine in cigarettes to keep people smoking.

Social media platforms engineered dopamine hits to keep people scrolling.

Different health outcome. Same playbook.

Two stories. One theme.

Technology keeps moving. Regulation keeps chasing.

The question remains: are we building guardrails, or just watching it happen?
