r. ROBOT LAB

Robots arrive in neighbourhoods and take on everyday tasks.

Illustrative scenarios: each scale starts with its own assumptions. No dates or employment forecasts.

WHAT WE REPRESENT

Each unit is an equivalent task in the scenario. A person performs many tasks: covering one does not eliminate their profession. People can move to other tasks, which this scene does not calculate.

Production, exponential growth and costs →

One city, four hypotheses.

We start with 600 equivalent human tasks across six sectors. Industry starts separately with 24 robots and six facilities. Every robot sent to the city becomes unavailable for work in that industry. Transit takes one illustrative cycle.

La asignación urbana es automática y equilibra la cobertura relativa de los sectores. Cada hipótesis establece límites distintos por sector; son parámetros del modelo, no estimaciones publicadas. The full hypothesis allows all represented tasks to be covered, including care and education. This is a possibility selected to explore, not a proven capability or prediction.

The city counts covered tasks, not economic productivity or eliminated jobs. It does not calculate demand, wages, prices, service quality, regulation or new occupations. Robot capabilities assume the selected tasks are technically feasible. Charging and shifts are omitted at this aggregate scale. Industrial resources, construction and limits are preserved in the regional model.
