On 3, I would hope that they build safeguards in.

My take"
But if at some point, AI determines that humans have become a greater danger to earth than their potential to improve it.... How that is protected against seems very unclear to me.  Previous Message 1. Any job in a trade that requires knowledge, skill and most importantly manual dexterity. Electrician, Carpentry, Construction, Electrician, HVAC installation and repair, Auto Mechanic, etc. 2. I think the expected benefit of AI is inflating a number of stocks that will go back to a real value when we learn AI won't or can't do what was expected. 3. I don't think that will be an issue. 4. I don't see that we aren't already going strongly in that direction with or without AI. The further we get away from hunter/gatherer the less we are in touch with nature and ourselves. 5. Similar to #4. We're already there. If you don't have a purpose you are just going to drift. It's up to the individual. AI does some things very well. Some things, not so much. If it is applied properly it can be a benefit. My biggest concern with AI is who is providing the "learning" and what are they teaching it. This concerns me a lot more that AI itself.
