[QUOTE="Scribe, post: 8868762, member: 6807152"] Indeed, and so what exactly does the AI need humanity for at all? We just take up space, pollute, and consume, when looked at from the highest level. If AI get's to the point where it actually has awareness of itself and the things (humans) around it, what incentive does it have for providing the best quality of life for an organism which provides nothing and has removed itself from the natural order of the world? The world is so far away from being 'ready' for actual AI, and the assumed job losses, that it will be catastrophic to the point I hope it doesnt happen within my son's life time, let alone mine. Corporations as we are told exist to make further profit. AI is (just as computing was, and many things before it) a way to downsize labour to increase profits. So, without some kind of guaranteed income, which would only be funded by governments, which are funded by taxes, which are paid by people (who have to make money) or corporations...how does it possibly work. We are not all going to just become 'creatives' when the robots/AI replaces vast segments of the working west, I dont care what Star Trek tried to sell us. I for one reject our AI overlords. :LOL: [/QUOTE]
