Where Did All The People Go?
Who needs humans anyway? Humans are the source of the world’s problems especially looking at conflicts, racism, and wars. So why do we need humans? Well maybe we don’t. That is at least the opinion or perhaps more of a calculated projection by the pioneer of Microsoft -- Bill Gates.
Quote:
Over the next decade, advances in artificial intelligence will mean that humans will no longer be needed "for most things" in the world, says Bill Gates. CNBC
Is it true or did Bill Gates just stick his foot in this mouth? Well Gates has been on a roll lately with putting his foot in his mouth. But even more to the point, what happened to Generate AI is your friend and here to make life easier for everyone -- not here to replace your or take your job? After all, Facebook’s pioneer Mark Zuckerburg has recently announced an investment of $65 Billion (with a ‘B’) in Artificial Intelligence.
The AI craze is definitely in high gear. But in the case of Facebook with a $65 Billion investment in AI -- two (2) questions come to mind
- What is the return period on such a massive investment?
- how will Facebook generate revenue to recoup said investments?
These same two questions can be asked of just about any major player today albeit with different investment commitment levels. As to Bill Gates’ prediction of virtually eliminating the need for humans, it begs the inevitable question(s): What will become of all of the humans that will be lost in the fray? Will humans become obsolete or extinct? Sounds like the pitch from “AI is here to help” has quickly shifted gears to “AI is here -- you can leave now.” It, of course, was inevitable that some roles [especially manual labor and automative ready tasks which could be accomplished more efficiently] would disappear as a result of the inroads of AI; but perhaps the general public would beg to differ if this is what they signed up for with respect to AI.
So who needs humans anyway? From the looks of it Big Corp doesn’t need humans and they are banking on the fact that the general public, of humans, doesn’t care much for humans either; thus when humans are replaced on a wide scale no one will notice or, if they do notice, they will not care much. The ground work is being laid. Strip humans of their income livelihood which will undoubtedly lead to a massive reduction in procreation, since no money = no eat. There you have it. Humans poof be gone. You can thank Bill Gates later.
