"Anything that involves information, anything short of shaping atoms, AI can do 50% of all those jobs right now" - Elon Musk He says white-collar work goes first because it only manipulates information, not atoms. If a job is basically typing, clicking, researching, writing, analyzing or teaching on a screen, AI can do it. The shift will lag due to inertia, but competition will force faster adoption when AI-heavy firms outperform AI-light firms. And then humanoid robots will take most blue-collar jobs. Once machines can “shape atoms,” robots will do physical work in factories, logistics, maintenance, construction, and even run data centers. He expects far more humanoid robots than humans, initially scarce then plentiful, with the main bottlenecks being power, cooling, and materials, not software. --- Video from 'Peter H.
