Here's my prediction for 2030: a lot of articles saying how by 2035 all labor will be replaced by AI and robots unless we give the government more control over our lives. And that's it.

The mass hysteria you are seeing by corpo journos and the hype from companies that are just following the latest silicon valley trend is nothing more than novelty bias playing out.

Sounds like complete BS to me. Who will fix my car? With what parts? Sourced from where? So humanoids will do all this within 5 years? Along with everything else?

The funny thing is that I used this example of my car as today I got a shock seeing the bill from the mechanic. It's an old Toyota that cost us about $10k. There are a bunch of parts that need to be replaced soon that will come to around $7k... Seeing how cheap these Chinese models are makes me think more about this kind of stuff. If the quality weren't so great but it only cost $5k you could just buy a new one every few years.

But going back to the 99% of jobs gone claim, it's still too soon. Impossible IMO

How can you be so smart, but so stupid at the same time?

And next, I think humanoid robots are maybe 5 years behind. So in five years, all the physical labor can also be automated.

Robotics isn’t that advanced yet to replace all physical work. He was probably hallucinating or something! Hahaha!

I could see 99% of researchers being unemployed by 2030 based on this kind of reasoning
