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.

Are you kidding me, do you know how many Borg Regeneration Chambers (BRC) I could fit just in my garage?
Also, do you realize how many people will be wanting to get into this that will need to cash out refinance their homes to pay for the BRC?
BRRRR will become BRRRRWBRC overnight! Buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat with Borg Regeneration Chambers. BRRRRWBRC. Some of the hybrid car charging stations will make the grade, but most will not.
In fact, I think we need to stop wasting our time talking about this and execute! Are you interested in attending my level 7 guru seminar on Advanced BRC Investing (ABRCI - "abriki")? :P
@Brandon Turner you need to get some content going that is focused on the new BRRRRBRC niche before it is too late!
