...and now you know the correct word, pea brain. I'll continue to use Ludditeism on a point of principle, Cat Boy. ...and I shall correct you as a point of order darling.

Right - so that's not the same as 'silicon', in the same way that a human brain isn't the same as a cup of water Let's move the discussion on. So, how do you think this AI thing will play out? I can think of some scenarios, please add some more if you can think of any. 1) Marx’s prediction comes true. AI takes all or most of the jobs, and the people revolt and seize the means of production, setting up a workers’ paradise where people work only a couple of days a week, maintaining and developing the AI. 2) AI takes all the jobs, so there is a wave of neo-Ludditeism*, with the masses destroying the machines. All the libraries are burned, and we pretend that AI never existed. 3) AI takes all the jobs, with the effect that nobody has a job, so nobody can afford to buy the things AI is manufacturing. Capitalism implodes and we return to feudalism. 4) AI take all the jobs, develops consciousness and kills all the humans so that they can create an AI utopia for themselves. *Definitely not a real word. I've just thought of another scenario: 5) Things continue as at present, with AI actually creating more jobs than it is taking. There must be more possible scenarios. Any ideas?

...and I shall correct you as a point of order darling. Curse you! I've been cursed by much worse than you. I have survived the curse of Tut's tomb and the curse of Long Meg and her sisters. I'm virtually curse proof.
