- quonn 4y agoI wonder if the physical workers join especially for services. Perhaps not, since they may be needed.
- yieldcrv 4y agothe point is to survive a little longer so you don't wind up being the 2 billion that starved to death waiting for an AI-output tax to form universal basic income or the uprising to start. bake cookies just like the nice old grandma does for the local teenage gangs. its a survival mechanism so that nobody messes with you.
- foobarbizbuz 4y agoWhat would they care? 6 billion people is probably too many for the planet anyway. Also they dont need to raise and feed an army if AI powered drones are able to do the same job. When AI is able to replace jobs en masse its pretty transparent to expect AI armies to be built en masse as well.
- fnimick 4y agoOwning production buys you a lot of weapons with which you can enforce your property ownership on others. Not if, but when, we get around to AI law enforcement with lethal weapons, it's over. There's no going back from that.

- tanseydavid 4y ago"Let them eat cake!"
- HDThoreaun 4y agoThere's plenty of cake to go around. If you say this while handing out cake it will go quite I well I suspect.
