Let me start with an example: Food. We already have optimized processes to make it, and the work is done by farmers, grocers, factory workers … AI can’t help in any step of this process. To optimize the process further, like to find a new farming method, you need to run experiments in the real world that AI can’t do. To execute it you need humans. AI robots picking crops or stacking shelves is not cost effective. Repeat for other things, like housing, or transportation (even though driverless uber is subsidized, it’s still not cheaper than a human driver, never mind uber eats which requires delivery to your door), medical care. The fundamental problem is that deterministic processes beat neural networks. Whatever AI can do in the real world, humans can do better with a deterministic process. If AI somehow finds a better deterministic process, humans will still do it better because they’re cheaper than robots at manual labor. submitted by /u/Lukose_Feysal
