MIT study finds AI can already replace 11.7% of U.S. workforce

17. Sam Altman should probably re-think that

There are some jobs that will never be taken over by robots (AI) because it won't be cost effective. For example, fast food workers can rest easy because it's cheaper to pay humans minimum wages that to purchase robots to replace them. Also there are hazardous jobs that will continue being done by humans, such as plumbing, electrical, many outdoor jobs, as well as some law-enforcement and fire-fighting jobs but eventually those will be taken over by robots after the easier jobs have all been automated.

The trade-off will continue to be whether the owners decide to invest in more robots, or is it easier and cheaper to use humans for some jobs? The cost of robots will come down eventually, as more automated manufacturing makes it cheaper to build and program the robots. When robots build the robots, humans will still be the programmers and the quality-control testers, at least for a time.

I have a feeling that Sam Altman will be long dead, as we all will be, when the human race finally reaches that point.
