AI technology will soon replace error-prone humans all over the world – but here’s why it could set us all free

Summary:
It sounds like a scary prospect, but if it's approached in the right way, it could open us up to a much more fulfilling way of life Can AI set us free and make us happier, or will we become bored without all the problems and hassles?

Can AI set us free and make us happier, or will we become bored without all the problems and hassles? Will machines outclass us in every way? 

The monopolising of AI will lead to mass unemployment and mass welfare, reverberating globally. AI efficiency and efficacy will soon replace the error-prone human. It must be the case that AI is to be socialised and the means of production, the AI, redistributed: in other words, brought under public ownership. Perhaps, the emergence of co-operative groups made up of experienced individuals will arise to undertake managerial functions in their previous, now automated, workplace. Whatever the structure, such an undertaking will require the full intervention of the state; on a moral basis not realised in the Luddite struggle.

This economic model, one of "abundance", provides a platform of the fullest of creative expression and artistic flair for mankind. Humans can pursue leisurely passions. Imagine the doctor dedicating superfluous amounts of time on the golfing course, the manager pursuing artistic talents. And what of the politician? Well, that’s anyone’s guess...
