I really wonder what people will work with in the future with both the AI and human population advancing rapidly. Jobs will be taken over by robots at the same time as more mouths will have to be fed.

More mouths will be fed. The robots will still do the work for humans, in fact a lot more work. The questions is how to best distribute the wealth instead of concentrating it.

But what will the humans be working on while the bots take care of it all?

Normally I'd agree, but there are some good arguments for every side there.

I was suggesting that those comments be read, not necessarily replied to.
