Problem is the number of jobs where it is advantageous to be human is decreasing and AI will accelerate this trend as it will be not only physical but cognitive roles where machines excel. <br><br>This is exacerbated because human general intelligence is not increasing at the same pace, so what to do with all these redundant people too “dumb” to work?. We already have 15% of the US population with an iQ below 85. <br><br>The dream of call centre workers being freed to pursue more erudite endeavours is false. Once cost of labour is effectively zero challenge is how can we create free energy to lower cost of production? Otherwise we have some tough decisions about which humans deserve the limited energy resources we have, as it cannot be managed thru a capitalist economy.<br><br>Humans only “job” would be to perpetuate humanity, primarily to maintain the evolution of our genome and secondarily for artistic cultural contributions. So would become (in the eyes of the machines) nothing more than a zoological exhibit.
