I just wonder how how life is going to change

think how much the internet has changed life

and I think ai and the metaverse will change it even more
to the point i can’t really even imagine what the future will be like in 10 years

It’s going to change dramatically. In the short term the technology will exist and there will be slow take up because it’s expensive. And humans will have jobs to manage it.

we can make flying cars now but you don’t see them as too expensive so no take up.

But in 15 years it will pretty much manage itself and we will definitely need universal basic income.

Once AI goes to general intelligence and then eventually superintelligence life is going to be radically different. (It can easily kill us)
