“So who will buy all the AI created products if no one has a job?”
This is an excellent question.
We have referred that to our artificial intelligent expert—Kamala—and he/she/they should be getting back to you with an answer shortly.
Lol.
Oh sure, Rosie the robot screws up George Jetson’s martini, so he slaps Jane in the mug for it?
You forgot “it”.
Which is definitely the only thing that really applies to..um...it!
Technology has always increased the rate of productivity. I don’t see this as any different, at least for now. E.g. - for software engineers, there’s still not enough of them, good ones at least. AI just lets them get things done faster. The result will be more software, not necessarily less engineers.
While I encourage my teams, in trying to find ways to use AI, there hasn’t even been a discussion about eliminating people. Certainly no plan to do so.
There’s already tens of millions of people in the USA who don’t work, never worked and are multi-generationally unemployed.
Biggest “business”” on the planet is the welfare state.
Can we stop with the “AI” hype?
Was it “AI” when we replaced bank tellers with ATMs 45 years ago? If so, maybe we could just go back to calling it computer processing or whatever.
