Bill Gates: Within 10 years, AI will replace many doctors and teachers—humans won't be needed ‘for most things' Bill Gates speaks during an event promoting the Netflix docuseries “What’s Next? The Future with Bill Gates” in New York City on Sept. 26, 2024. Over the next decade, advances in artificial intelligence will mean that humans will no longer be needed "for most things" in the world, says Bill Gates. That's what the Microsoft co-founder and billionaire philanthropist told comedian Jimmy Fallon during an interview on NBC's "The Tonight Show" in February. At the moment, expertise remains "rare," Gates explained, pointing to human specialists we still rely on in many fields, including "a great doctor" or "a great teacher." But "with AI, over the next decade, that will become free, commonplace — great medical advice, great tutoring," Gates said. In other words, the world is entering a new era of what Gates called "free intelligence" in an interview last month with Harvard University professor and happiness expert Arthur Brooks. The result will be rapid advances in AI-powered technologies that are accessible and touch nearly every aspect of our lives, Gates has said, from improved medicines and diagnoses to widely available AI tutors and virtual assistants. "It's very profound and even a little bit scary — because it's happening very quickly, and there is no upper bound," Gates told Brooks. The debate over how, exactly, most humans will fit into this AI-powered future is ongoing. Some experts say AI will help humans work more efficiently — rather than replacing them altogether — and spur economic growth that leads to more jobs being created. Others, like Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman, counter that continued technological advancements over the next several years will change what most jobs look like across nearly every industry, and have a "hugely destabilizing" impact on the workforce.

I strongly disagree with the notion of 'AI could' he refers to. It is very narrow to think that way. A good example to that is the mid 90's. Internet just started to expand. People (my folks, friends, family) had that same argument - this internet thing is just for MIRC/ICQ.. nothing to do with that.. a gimmick.. Well. The whole point of these types of techonological advancments is that they are not 'the product', they are 'the vehicle' for people to learn and develop by themsleves. Another good example is like saying in 1900: 'Combustion Engine' - they say it COULD do things but it is all talk.. Do you think in 1900 they could fathom some of the current applications using this technology today?
From the thread title, I assumed this would be a discussion of advances in robotic sex dolls. I expected to find @THE HCP posting here.
True, but it created opportunities for equip dealers, mechanics & petro. Nothing like working a gaso powered Barreto Tiller.
