Yeah, that's great, until you remember that in the entire history since Malthus humanity has never had any competition -- all the jobs went to humans. When we invent AIs, that will no longer be the case.
I'm sorry you (and so many other humans) are utterly incapable of imagining a world in which they are no longer the top of the employment food chain.
Hate to tell you, but Bernie lost fair and square. You've been duped about him being robbed. Quite possibly by Republicans trying to fracture the liberal vote.
The odds of any one person being killed? 1 in 70 million.
But that's an absurd way to measure it. An extinction asteroid not only kills everybody on Earth, it kills ALL FUTURE PEOPLE. That is an unbounded number, but it's easily in the hundreds of billions.

Under no circumstances should a merger be allowed that creates the biggest company in any industry. Patently anti-competitive.
We learned from Standard Oil that it's a bad idea to let one company own both the pipes and the stuff the flows through them.
Assange can walk down the street to an Internet cafe any time he wants. Beggars can't be choosers.
What, no headline about how Ecuador is denying Assange Lamborghini access?
There is zero evidence that the USA is behind this.

Translation: technology will always create more and better jobs for horses.
Turns out that wasn't true.

"incentivize productivity"
How are you going to do that when AIs are more productive than humans? No matter what job you try to do, your "productivity" will be negative.
Go ahead, laugh at this inevitability, just like the buggy whip makers laughed at the horseless carriages.
Since waterboarding is the only way to get at the truth, we need to waterboard Trump. Or worse.
Keep America safe!
So we should go ahead and do what Putin wants, because everybody wants something? That makes Trump sense.
Translation: I believe whatever I read, as long as it supports my existing beliefs.
Here's a test: "Trump is a murderer." There, to do you believe that? Remember, the source of that claim is "completely irrelevant".
Ah, what's the point? You can't argue logic with Trumpies.
Trump lies constantly.
Trump will make the deficit grow like crazy.
Trump will make the tax system even more stacked in his own favor.
So of course you have to project all of those sins onto Hillary.
And nice job trying to spin away the fact that Trump bragged about habitual sex crimes. Must be somebody else's fault, right?
Even if all of that were true (and it isn't even close), it still wouldn't matter. Trump is so vastly worse in every way.
Take the blinders off.
Nice collection of tin-foil-hat conspiracy nonsense.
So ... no evidence. Thanks for confirming.
So Trumpy to respond to a request for evidence with ... no evidence.
Nothing criminal in that. Turn off Faux News.
Nobody is surprised to discover that Trump supporters don't care about the facts.
And yes, if you're not voting for Hillary, you're voting for Trump.
What is it with Republicans thinking that hypocrisy is fine?
Yeah, because why should the government keep sources and methods of cyber-defense secret?
Oh, wait.

Is that what the actual wrong people have been telling you?
Figures.
The Ebola virus can't do those things. So you're not scared of it, right?
Just because it's not like a human, that doesn't mean it can't kill you.
All of those claims about what AI research is and isn't are wrong.
Even if they were true, they would only represent the present, not the future. People were so sure the Wright brothers couldn't fly ...
The people polled have a financial interest in AI being thought to be safe. And despite that, many of them are scared.
I'm scared, too.
The most plausible reason for the inventor to remain anonymous: it's a Ponzi scheme.
You can only get prosecuted for that if you can be identified.
