Update – Don’t Fear the Future

It seems that I’m not the only one who thinks we could have a Utopia or a Dystopia in 10 years.

Bill Gates: Within 10 years, AI will replace many doctors and teachers—humans won’t be needed ‘for most things’

You can read the article on the web. Just Google Bill Gates on AI: Humans won’t be needed ‘for most things’

It’s gonna happen. We have two paths we can take. One leads to a Utopian society, where machines do most of the work and we spend five days a week doing the things we actually want to do, reading, writing, hobbies, vacations with loved ones, spending time with our families, taking classes, or just about anything else we want to do that’s not too expensive. The other path leads to a few trillionaires doing whatever they want to do, no matter how expensive it is, while the rest of the world lives in poverty because there aren’t enough jobs and the government doesn’t provide a safety net.

To achieve the Utopia, everyone will have to get along. If we continue to fight each other we will be doomed. Our only hope is to work together to create a wonderful world.

To achieve the Dystopia, we don’t have to change a thing.

Peace & Love, and all of the above,

Earl

  1. Funny to single out teachers and doctors–they need people sills, not AI’s strong point.  Yes, Dystopia is what we have now and I don’t see a change coming.  Thanks for your works.  Bonnie Schiffer

    1. I don’t think he was singling out Teachers and Doctors. I think he trying to say that everyone, even Teachers and Doctors will be replaced. AI, Robots, and drones will replace 80% of the workforce. Even the world’s oldest profession, Prostitution, will be affected.
