I wouldn’t be so sure, Ziggy. It’s the boring, routine things that AI is already starting to do. Notice how often we have to go through an AI bot when we phone for service. The bot takes care of the easiest problems, then sends us to a person when the problem is more complicated. I’m guessing the bots will gradually get more proficient, and the humans involved will be the ones with more expertise.
A lot of research is going on to develop robots that can do physical work:
But presumably the robots will be used when the work can be automated, which means repeatable procedures, or when they are being directed by humans.
Big changes are coming — we’re just seeing the start of it.
