Not that you’re saying otherwise, however isn’t that even more of a reason more developers and resources should be allocated toward automating complex and risky physical processes?

You’re solving for the wrong problem from the perspective of people with money investing money to solve these problems.

  • Shipbreaking, while dangerous for the workers, isn’t expensive because it is done in far flung countries with workers that have low wages, few protections for safety, and long term health consequences.

  • Art and writing (for western consumption) requires educated and talented people which are expensive to employ.

People with money, looking for a return, want that return their spending, not reduce human suffering.
