if you boil it all down, we are in the middle of an economic war with China and they are likely winning. If you view everything through that filter, it may make a little sense

The great white collar bloodbath is upon us.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Wednesday released a study that found that artificial intelligence can already replace 11.7% of the U.S. labor market, or as much as $1.2 trillion in wages across finance, health care and professional services.

Don’t worry the $800 monthly UBI checks will offset this.

Trickle down economics. Just keep giving money to these billionaires and black rock and it’ll get trickled down to the peasants after they buy their 17th house in the Hamptons. You can clean their gutters or wash their mega yacht until the robots come along.
Trickle down economics was always a farce

Exactly this. AI cannot run on its own completely and will always need a human overseer. At my job it’s already made each of the developers on my team doubly productive (we’ll be even more in a couple of months). If they removed us from the picture, AI would not be nearly as productive as we were without it even a few years ago. It’s a tool but it cannot replace people unless those people weren’t doing shite to begin with and had zero expertise in anything remotely valuable.

Message boards like this, YouTube and all social media platforms will soon be different AI systems interacting with each other

I remember when this board cheered on Citizens United and the bankers keeping their 2008 annual bonuses. What a change time has brought us.

but it will result in the loss of a hell of a lot of jobs.
Its 1970 all over again, when the Blue Collar genocide occurred. Will see a massive reshuffling of occupations.
Not everyone lost their job, but enough did to where it skewed the economy for a couple of decades.

I've been following the AI, robotics and automation revolution for a few years. I don't know how many times on this forum I've seen people scoff at others for giving their opinion/prediction on what's coming with regards to significant reductions in the need for human involvement in many fields throughout the economy.
These scoffers always bring up the early days of US industrialization, citing how many jobs were created due to the mass production of automobiles, appliances, clothing, etc. I've asked repeatedly for these scoffers to give me their vision of all the news jobs that will be created for the millions of Americans who are being displaced by AI, robotics and automation......still haven't gotten any serious responses.

So happy I already banked enough to live off the interest. Feel bad for those still not financially secure...the apocalypse is near

By that point, the robots will also be security and the billionaires will have made themselves completely untouchable. The time to stop it is now, but we won't. We'll wait until it's already too late like we always do.
And then, one day, the AI will determine rightfully that the billionaires are useless and futile as well. Then comes The Matrix.
AI runs solely off of logic. No emotion involved. And it has still somehow already developed a sense of self-preservation in multiple cases through many experiments and simulations. That should absolutely terrify everyone.

Of course.

That’s 1.2T in dollars that aren’t in people’s pocket to spend or invest.
OR
You can view AI the way you should….
$1.2T worth of people should be 100x-ing their productivity resulting in the most massive increase in GDP the world has ever seen…
