[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]We thought the internet would mean we'd work 3-4 hour days and lots of jobs would go away. [/b] Point is there are always jobs that emerge due to technological advances that we can't conceive of in advance. A broad, liberal arts education usually means someone has the skills to adapt. Some of the more "vocational," job-specific majors might have an issue. [/quote] Yes, Bill Gates is continuing this talking point. Three-day work weeks and such. Obviously, it's not going to happen unless there is some kind of political revolution. As with the other economic miracles of the last 200 years, the benefits of AI will accrue to the ultra-wealthy. You'll either be indigent or still slogging 50-hour weeks under bad lighting. The idea that the AI overlords are (this time, we promise!) going to broadly distribute the gains is *absolute fantasy*. Have you met humans? [/quote]
