RE: Is This the End of Cashier Jobs? Amazon's Grocery Store of the Future Set to Launch Early Next Year
Eventually there will be no jobs left at all I fear!

I think skynet approaches.:-)
For all we know the military already has it:)
NSA or some other division unknown.
Quite possibly. Some people think they already have quantum computers.
I hear you there. For a while at least it will be more the removal of non-creative jobs like cashiers and there's even the more 'skilled' jobs that have AI competition now like the lawyer robot
Ideally us humans will find our own niches until the AI++ comes around. Lol. I'm not sure what good we would be when our creative, inventive, and other abstract skills are taken over.
Yes I think initially we might just have AI Isaac Newtons - once we get AI Leonardo Davinci there will be nothing left for us to do. Even the art will be gone!
That's the most scary aspect for me personally. While the need to have jobs is important, when there are AI Davinci's...what's the use of a human at that point. We'd really just be there to be subservient to the AI itself at best. The concept of human self worth pretty disappears at this stage, unless we are able to come up with something else. But I've got nothing in mind to answer that right now.
Yes. I suppose one approach would be transhumanism. Rather than be surpassed by the machines we merge with them. What if you could have brain upgraded to have an IQ of 1000 or a million?
One of the limiting factors of human intelligence is believed to be working memory (often assessed via the digit span) - even small differences to this could potentially make a big difference.
If you have any kind of prosthetic, or wear glasses, or a use a hearing aide, the argument could be made that you are an embryonic form of cyborg.
That's a great point. Sure there's benefits in being a cyborg of sorts. :)
The Bible called it the garden of eden
The Buddhists called it nirvana
The norse called it valhalla
I'm sure well figure out something.
