But AI can't do the majority of labor?
- malermeister 3y agoyet.
- have_faith 3y agoIn what time scale are you expecting this?
- malermeister 3y agoProbably a decade max? The hardest ones to replace will be actual physical jobs, but that's coming as well - see Boston Dynamics for shells that could bring AI into the physical world.
- southerntofu 3y agoDo you realize people have been claiming this for over at least half a century? Robots are dumb and most physical labor cannot be replaced by robots. Modern AI techniques do not improve on that, as they add unpredictability to the output. See for example this article/threads from last week about a large US company failing to replace skilled work with robots: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36828861 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36828861 I guess we'll wait another decade before we can have this conversation :)
