If AI is solving everything and ultimately phasing workers out, then what exactly would you be educating your kids in? Human's limiting factor is the time that it takes them to learn something (18-27 years of education depending on the field). What job would be worth striving for? They'd be training for jobs that a future AI would be trying to phase out. This whole article just described how most of the the highest paid workers (doctors, lawyers, driving, logistics, film, music, radio, etc etc) would be automated. I don't know what you'd need a person for at that point. Feels like a race to the bottom.

There was massive biodiversity loss on this planet and most of mammalian biomass consists of humans and animals that feed humans. Humans need to retreat. We have enough tools and people improving human lives. We now need more people and tools to improve many other lives and systems on this planet.

- lewhoo 4y agoI think education will still be crucial in human to human relation but it remains to be seen if the value of education won't be lessened because it won't give any other edge. I really share this concern because let's face it - we're pushing ourselves for the sake of better life, better job, better X.
