[quote=@catchamber] Do you think that replacing a vast segment of the labor force with AI has the same level of difficulty and return of investment as scanning someone's thoughts and creating surrogate robots? [/quote] All I'm saying is, robots and AI are advancing faster than we anticipated, but not as fast as we are fearing. I've never watched a video from the guy who's video you linked, but after watching that once, my youtube recommended has been trying to show me his vids, and all 5 thumbnails I've seen have been him asking things like "how will we survive" in one form or another. It's why I don't give too much credence to him. One of my biggest fears used to be advanced AI, which is why I have a 'been there, done that' attitude on this. I've research more than I am comfortable enough about it. It's happening, just not to the level futurists are claiming. In 10 years we'll have some self driving cars and more drones, maybe some more automated dispenser machines, and some people will be without jobs, but a lot of them won't be blindsided by it as if the future caught them by surprise.
