From the New York Post: Bill Gates predicted that advancements in artificial intelligence will significantly reduce humanity’s role in many traditional tasks such as medicine and education — and the seismic shift could happen in less than 10 years.
During a recent interview with comedian Jimmy Fallon on NBC’s “The Tonight Show,” the Microsoft co-founder described a future where humans are no longer necessary “for most things” because AI technology will readily perform tasks that currently require specialized human skills.
Today, expertise in fields such as medicine and education remains “rare,” Gates said, adding that those areas depend on “a great doctor” or “a great teacher.”
But over the next decade, “great medical advice [and] great tutoring” will become free and commonplace, Gates said.
Gates made the comments during a February 4 appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.
On what jobs will be like, Gates suggested humans will only need to work two days a week.
“Will we still need humans?” Fallon asked.
“Not for most things…. we’ll decide,” Gates bizarrely replied, adding, that humans will still be needed for some things, such as baseball, because “we won’t want to watch computers play baseball.”
“There will be some things we reserve for ourselves. But in terms of making things and moving things and growing food, over time those will be basically solved problems,” Gates added.
However, Bill Gates not only believes humans “won’t be needed” for most things. He also believes there should be LESS HUMANS in the world, and families should have fewer children.
Gates, 69, has been promoting the idea of population control for years, although he and his former wife, Melinda Gates, have three grown children of their own.
A video released by Gates 7 years, ago, on February 13, 2018, is re-circulating on social media, in which he discusses his original concern that “if we make the world healthier, the population would get so big that feeding everybody and maintaining the environment is going to be impossible.”
In the video, Gates says, “Melinda and I wondered whether providing new medicines and keeping children alive would create more of a population problem. What we found out is that as health improves, families choose to have less children, and this effect is very, very dramatic. The faster we improve health, the faster family size goes down, and so, we can feel great about saving those lives.”
