Im pretty sure ai will never be able to be autonomous, that it will always need a human watching it, or it will be more of a liability than anything else.

That said, I still think all the money invested in it will be a net win, because the tools it replaces are what the economy of today is made of.

You may have ai automation in factories with formen watching them all the time, but we already have that now, so its a lateral change, but it is still better for production than the prevous tools. So it will be adapted by literally everyone, everywhere, for everything, just like the computer has already been. This will just be the new computer.

But will require equal amounts of work from people as the modern one does, so for us it's lateral. Simply, expertese switching. But for the AI "bubble" it will be massively profitable for decades.

you can replace every job with teleworkers from india and make a profit so yeah even if it only gets to the 5 yard line on autonomous, companies will be profitable by putting people in the global south/wherever into a VR goggles to do the jobs

not sure what the plan is though cause that's like great depression levels on unemployment in the west, and we'll have Mao's Cultural Revolution II electric boogaloo

just replacing the truck driving industry in the states with it's amount of military age males is enough to create mad max levels of violence over night lol
