In this scenario, he said there will be universal high income, while AI and robots will provide any goods and services for the public.
“If you want to do a job as kind of like a hobby, you can do a job,” Musk stated. “But otherwise, the AI and the robots will provide any goods and services that you want.”
The CEO made the remarks amid employees’ and executives’ growing insecurities that AI will soon replace them in their work.
Goldman Sachs previously estimated that AI could expose 300 million full-time jobs, the International Monetary Fund saying the impact will be different depending on economies.
According to Musk, the question in the benign future will be the role of humans given that computers and robots will be able to everything that they can.
