Re: The richest man in the world

Musk's latest fantasy won't make anyone redundant for many years, and probably never. It'll just be a curiosity a few rich people buy to impress their rich friends by telling it to bring them a drink or give them a laugh when it screws up.

Even the most menial jobs require a lot of understanding about the world that no AI has, and even where robots can find a niche (like cooking fast food orders or stocking shelves in a grocery) it isn't going to be one built like a human and walking around on two legs.
