>>> While AGI currently depends on humans for infrastructure maintenance... You did not watch I, Pencil. I as a human, can grow food, hunt, and pretty much survive on that. We did this for 1000's of years. Your AGI is dependent on EVERY FACET of the modern world. It's going to need keep oil and gas production going. Because it needs lubricants, hydraulics and plastics. It's going to need to maintain trucks, and ships. It's going to need to mine, so much lithium. Its may not need to mine for steel/iron, but it needs to stack up useless cars and melt them down. It's going to have to run several different chip fabs... those fancy TSMC ones, and some of the downstream ones. It needs to make PCB's and SMD's. Rare earths, and the joy of making robots make magnets is going to be special. A the point where AGI doesn't need us, because it can do all the jobs and has the machines already running to keep the world going, we will have done it to ourselves. But that is a very long way away...
