Jobs that National believes AI robots will take over
As National embraces AI and automation across the public sector, critics are warning the technology is becoming less about improving services and more about replacing human care with cost-cutting algorithms.
National reckons AI can replace social workers — because nothing comforts a struggling family like a chatbot saying ‘Have you tried not being poor?’
“Nicola Willis thinks AI can handle mental health support — because when you’re at your lowest, nothing hits quite like a machine asking you to rate your despair out of five.
David Seymour must love it — teachers replaced by AI so kids can learn economics from a machine trained to optimise shareholder value, that’s never met a human need it couldn’t privatise.
Winston Peters spent years warning about losing our identity — now we’re outsourcing it to an algorithm trained somewhere offshore.
Shane Jones backing robot public servants in the regions is classic — nothing says local jobs like a server farm in another country.
National’s dream is a fully automated public service — no workers, no accountability, and best of all, no one left to explain why it’s not working.
This isn’t about efficiency — it’s about building a system where suffering is processed, not solved, and no one is left to care that it exists!
Because in the end, AI isn’t replacing bureaucracy.
It’s replacing responsibility.
I swear at the rate no boats is loosing weight soon we’ll just be left wth an arsehole.
Unless there is change, we know who the winners will be. It wont be the people, or democracy, or our sovereignty, or the environment.
The forces of facism and even worse totalitarianism are being harnessed by the 0.1%. They are planning for the end and we arent part of it.
The RW become dumber by the day! All that keeps them breathing is their great God, MONEY and having as much as they can stuff down their own pathetic throats. They couldn’t give a hoot if 100s live on the streets so long as they don’t have to see it! They ‘simply’ cannot comprehend that most of these people once had jobs, a home, a family etc. jobs which are no longer there. Now their next brain fade is replacing jobs with robots and AI. Well truly there isn’t much difference between lazy Luxon / gormless Willis so they couldn’t do any worse. Be careful what you wish for! This CoC has no idea what it is unleashing on our lovely NZ. Do robots pay tax, buy food from the supermarket, go to the movies or restaurants? And these are the dumb-assed people who criticised Robertson, who was an intelligent mastermind in comparison! Time you looked in the mirror and actually saw what you have become – grasping, greedy, with no empathy or compassion, in fact brainless! How in hell do you sleep at night – I know you take sleeping pills!
I suspect our man child – Minister of Health Brown would like an AI takeover in public health. After all what could possibly go wrong?
AI is the excuse, the convenient cover story chosen that helps the Natz to get away with what they were always going to do. In this age of AI infancy, it is unfortunately, a shrewd move.
The whole point of AI – in the future – is to eliminate jobs and help control the fall out of this, in conjunction with humanoid robotics and frig knows what other technology the Tech overloads wish to impose on humanity in order for them to shape the world they want for themselves and their billionaire class brethren. But this is the future, right now, the Natz are just using AI to help push through their usual clap trap.
It is already a system where suffering is processed not solved – this is system of STATE SERVICES that we have had since the 1989 State Sector Act – thing is now they want to remove humans from the process altogether
