@troed @simon At some point there will be a diminishing return, when #AI & #AdvancedAutomation reduces the need for a #HumanWorkforce. The only way a human will be able to compete (provide unique skills) with machines/software will be by genetically modifying humans themselves. As the race for greater enhancements grows, the eventual outcome will be totally modified humans. Assuming that this is possible, does not mean humans will maintain a competitive edge. 🤖
