Part 6/11:
The deployment of such AI hardware will enable humanoid robots to perform complex tasks more efficiently, with the potential to scale endlessly. This convergence hints at a future where artificial general intelligence (AGI) could become feasible by the 2030s, powered by quantum computing, nuclear energy, and exponentially improved hardware.
Economic and Societal Implications
The military-like progress in robotics directly impacts the global economy. Massive deployment efforts, such as Amazon’s incorporation of over 750,000 robots to work alongside human employees, suggest a dramatic shift in employment landscapes. Amazon’s automation efforts reduced their need for human workers by 100,000, illustrating how robotics can supplement or replace human labor at scale.
