Artificial intelligence, is just that, artificial. I'm not sure that real human feelings can ever be made to play a part. For that reason, I do not fear AI because humans will still have "Paris" so to speak.

I think we need to do some 'backward chaining' and first determine what, as a species, we want to get out of AI. If we want complex decision making we may yet have to wait quite a while. But consider this; the construction of the latest and most complicated space craft can be task analysed so that each and every stage of its production can be implemented by the 8 year old mentioned by another respondent. There are in fact few tasks in human endeavour that can't be organised in this way and this has been understood since Henry Ford and the advent of Classical Management Systems. If we view AI systems as fron-end executors there is little that we can't pass over to them, releasing vast human resources to more complicated endeavours. Now the inherent wisdom of such possibilities, that is another matter entirely...8)

AI will at best be as competent as an 8 year old. Everyone needs to relax

C'mon, in all seriousness.. for as long as there is booze..... Humanity will be fine !!
