It doesn't matter how we see it, or what are the theoretical or practical limitations, because it clearly represents a new iteration of automation. In a long line from mechanical looms through integrator machines to digital computers, these advances have invariably: a) Increased output and reduced average quality thereof b) Dislocated skilled workers to other fields c) Enabled concentration of wealth So the trend continues. To those deeply steeped in using computers to shift about data of average value, it heralds loss of wealth and status. Society will adapt. People will be forced to adapt. Some will be ruined, some will climb to new heights. Good luck all.
