And there are a lot of influencers saying that it will be "really nice that AI will replace the boring jobs so we can focus on creative/fulfilling life" yeah right...


Ironically, with Moravec's Paradox, (digital) creative tasks will probably be automated while the boring tasks of moving boxes around might not be for a while:

> Moravec's paradox is the observation by artificial intelligence and robotics researchers that, contrary to traditional assumptions, reasoning requires very little computation, but sensorimotor and perception skills require enormous computational resources. The principle was articulated by Hans Moravec, Rodney Brooks, Marvin Minsky and others in the 1980s. Moravec wrote in 1988, "it is comparatively easy to make computers exhibit adult level performance on intelligence tests or playing checkers, and difficult or impossible to give them the skills of a one-year-old when it comes to perception and mobility".
