I was talking to my wife about our future and our kids future, and speculating on what it may look like. My initial thought is that we are essentially at the early stages of the S curve on AI development. If that is true, my expectation is that AI will quickly become more adept than humans in most aspects of human existence. We will have specialized robots doing damn near everything that humans are capable of doing now and doing it better than us. They will be smarter, and will be able to work 24x7 without breaks.

Which leads me down a couple of different paths.
1) What jobs WILL be available in the future that I should lead my children to?
2) Seems like smart money would be to invest in essentially every AI stock available today.
3) How do we prevent Terminator from becoming a reality?
4) Do we even need to worry about #3, or should we be more concerned about a "Mouse Utopia" type of end game? (If we aren't already in the midst of it)
5) With all of the above considerations, it seems like Elon may be on to something with Space Exploration. And it's less about the exploration than the need for mankind to be striving towards something. Without that goal, and with the rise of AI, there are going to be a whole lot of people that don't NEED to work, and don't have a DESIRE to work.
