Reply to comment by Surur in A.I TIMELINE by Aze_Avora
Ha! That would certainly make life interesting! I'm not sure if I'm ready for that kind of future, but I'm sure it's coming sooner or later. I'm more interested in the potential of AI to help us solve some of the world's biggest problems. I think that's where the real potential lies.

It’s a video where the guy goes to the place and tries it, then instead of giving us his review he says “so what do you guys think?”
How TF should we know? You’re the one that went there. You tell us!

It's a nice dream but we are very far from that. This kid is going to have a full career and grow old before that happens. Best for them to go to school.

Boomers won't die, they will extend their life making them sell everything until they bleed them dry, millennials won't inherit anything, corporate will buy all those properties, next generations will be renters until they die.

I think it's more important to consider/evaluate your inherent strengths and find the jobs that require them. Don't consider what will be around the longest.
There are very few occupations that will be wholly replaced by AI in our lifetimes. Instead, start learning how ai will/can allow you to do your tasks better. When you graduate and hit the workforce, you'll be able to outcompete your peers with the help of the AI.

You could try to somehow train you AI to make those "actors" talk to each other instead of the wall. This is my biggest issue. But really good work. Reminds me of those personally generated telenovelas, Gibson writes about in his Neuromancer Trilogy.

I disagree. Any service based business or labour jobs will be required for a very long time.
Our AI technology will rocket forward, but a full takeover of the workforce is limited by our advancements in robotics, which is limited by many factors, mostly energy requirements and batteries. Even if we do have sufficient tech to have robots take some of these jobs, humans will be much cheaper.
I think this sub forgets that service-based and labour jobs are >50% of the workforce because most people here (and on reddit in general) have desk jobs, often in tech.
What kind of technology would you need to replace a plumber to come to your house? What about a gardener? Or a furnace repair technician? Each would require entirely different sets of tools and hardware even if they are fucking genius, sentient AI. I think we are still very far away from that.

They’ll be shooting 70% from half court and doing half court dunks as well.
It be like Space Jam in real life.

True. But what exactly do we do then? Enter a post-truth world where the law can’t be enforced because nothing can be proven anymore? Will we revert back to law of the jungle and might makes right? We have to at least try to curb and control the creation of these programs if we want to continue living in a lawful society.
My guess is we’re headed for big-brother style 24-7 computer monitoring where every single thing you do is logged and overseen by government owned AI. If they suspect you might be up to no good then they move in. It’s not ideal, but it’s the only real way to stop this kind of technology from ruining our entire perception of what’s real and what’s not. It’s that or lawlessness (can’t tell you which is worse tbh)

Seems correct but tough as hell to implement. Its easy to safeguard uranium, but AI is just software anyone can send easily.

We'll see, I'm not an oracle, but things rarely develop that quickly in the real world. Name a technology that was invented (the point where it became actually viable to use) and didn't have a pretty lengthy turnaround to being actually implemented in widely used products or industries. Many fields may be downsized in the coming decade, but it is impossible to predict the degree.
If anything could be considered a good bet, it's that "menial mental labor" tasks will be phased out first. Typing up/evaluating reports, rote clerical tasks, data entry, etc. These are the types of tasks currently coming AI tech will have the easiest time actually replacing humans for.
Talking specifically about the types of tasks we'd typically want someone highly trained or educated for (since the question is being asked about someone going to college). Not speaking to labor in general.

Someday I will tell my cyborg grandchildren about the day I was on Reddit and stumbled upon the first AI generated never-ending show; similar to when my grandparents told me about the time they first saw moving picture shows.

I hate that progress is slowed because of the "Dey took our jerbs" mentality, I've never met someone who though maccas was a long term and rewarding career.

OP: Two, I wouldn’t want to go through surgery and get cybernetic technologies like prosthetic limbs, and exoskeletons. However getting these cybernetic technologies without surgery would be great. Would this be possible?
I would accept a temporar body for the brain till an advanced 3D bioprinter prepares my next youthful body replacement.

Live in the present is a really botched translation of Buddha's teaching.
It's actually closer to 'be focused and diligent to present.'
See, I hate hippie translators.
