You could’ve said the same thing when making the switch from farming to industry. There’s unlimited room in STEM.

I’d love to talk this through sometime Naval. My fear is that there is a big difference. I might rephrase and say “there may yet be unlimited room in creativity and discovery based areas, but repetitive occupations may be over...even in STEM.” But I don’t know if you’d agree.

We agree. STEM workers transfer repetitive jobs to software and robots. What remains is creative work and the demand for human creativity, in all facets of life, is unlimited.

Where is it written that there will always be creative work that is *best* done by humans? And what guarantees that most humans will be able to do that work?

As a professional creative person with experience coding, I’d bet on the robots. My internal creative processes feel entirely programmable. Combine that code with rapid audience testing and I’d give human artists ten more years, tops.

I would take the other side of that bet, if well structured. But of course the bar for creativity (that’s in demand) keeps rising as the tools get better.

What creative field do you think will not be dominated by AI in ten years?

Creative fields won’t be dominated by AI, they’ll be dominated by people who know how to use AI. For example, music. AI will suggest options composers would never even consider, and we will pick and choose, taking what we want. AI will be a collaborator. A co-writer.

That phase won’t last long. The machines will soon create better and faster via rapid A-B testing.

You sure nailed the databases idea that could determine citizenship without using the census. That’s why I follow you.
