What's your RE strategy after the robots take over?
I just listened to a TED talk that outlined the inevitability of artificial intelligence taking over the world. 80% of current jobs are service-based, and robots will very soon be able to replace all of them. We can't predict exponentially accelerated intelligence's effect on civilization but suffice it to say, there won't be jobs, and humans will have little utility on the planet, at least from the perspective of intelligent machines.
The average year in which the singularity is predicted to occur is 2040.
If you care about this, what are your strategies for REI and how might you invest differently in the future?
I'm troubled. The Matrix is within my lifetime. Only thing I can think of doing is nothing different from what I'm doing now because I have no idea what super intelligent machines will do.
