Ultimately artificial intelligence is going to be able to do everything humans do… [It] will operate at the best human levels and do so tirelessly but… there’s in fact a larger number of jobs today than there was 100 years ago and they pay eight times as much in constant currency as a century ago and they’re more complex and actually more satisfying - and we’ve also invested a lot more in education as a result… So these trends are going to continue, work is going to become more and more intellectual. I’d say that already half the population contributes to creating information or intellectual content of one kind or another - none of these jobs existed 50 years ago. Ray Kurzweil
