The unfolding saga of the car illustrates why machines are likely to take over most human jobs. Right now, operating a car is a partnership between a human driver and technology, with the human being the senior partner. When we get to driverless cars (and we will), the car will become the senior partner and the human will become the backup/fail safe junior partner. Today’s announcement that the driver who died in a partially automated Tesla was playing a video game at the time underscores that even as a backup/junior partner, humans are fallible.  And being fallible is the last step before replacement. #TheBookCirca2118 #AI
