The way I look at it, once we have robots with substantially sub-human intelligence, but maybe the cognitive ability and coordination/manipulation skills of a five year old child (or a very advanced chimp), and they can be produced at a cost less than the wages of a typical human laborer, it's game over for much of the existing ways in which human economic activities have been organized for the last 5000 years. ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=120640061-aded06 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
