Will AI make investing in higher education pointless?

Which says that analysis that is tied to physical, emotional and psychological treatment of humans may never be a fit for AI, and if that chink in their armor is a reality, there are probably others. Net result, the fear that they take over all jobs, and we become a leisure class, only,  and lose motivation to innovate is likely not a future factor.

One might argue that the physical, emotional and psychological treatment of humans, has never been a human specialism.

Nonetheless, the physical, emotional and psychological treatment of humans may not be a universal necessity and therefore not the necessary remit of AI.

All depends upon the purpose of everything I suppose, and of course there might not be a purpose.

But if there is no purpose, then the treatment of humans is of no consequence.

The chink in the human armour is undoubtedly it's organic fragility and dependence upon Planet Earth, which is perhaps why in a purposeful universe, we continue to strive to intellectually supersede ourselves.

It's currently all a guessing game of if's and but's Faux.

Psychiatry has been a recognized specialty of medical treatment since the late 18th century. And, it is estimated that of the entire medical profession, about 17% of all treatment of adults is psychiatric, totaling, as of 6 years ago, about $106B annually.

I don't argue that AI has its place, but I fail to see a purpose in attempts make AI appear as humans, and now dogs. Why not just a box on a table, or even cute little domes and disks on my desk top that replies to questions, often answered to me as: "I don't understand, but, according to wiki..."  as my Google device does. My SIiri, at least, rarely tells me it does not understand. And it cannot reach to dust my bookshelves and tabletops. The idea of a robot vacuum is cute, but I do not see a robot that can clean in the narrow channel between my refrigerator and the wall, let alone under it. Why not create an AI snake that enjoys eating dust? That whole exercise is as useless as my deciding to take hormones to grow tits. Though a male taking female hormones may actually be able to lacerate [that has been proven, but it is also known that all males do not succeed in lactating], he is not equipped biologically to become pregnant, so why even try?

Remember that humans are just a higher level of bugs. Remember that God wants you to bomb Iran.

Working backwards:

It's what we do, a specialism, which sits loosely under the umbrella of science.

Indeed, why even try to medically or analytically solve "mental health problems".

Yep, baffles me too, but so do mental health problems.

Is wanting to grow tits a mental health problem, or an evolutionary development?

Well, we tend to deify humans and animals, because they are at the top of our known evolutionary and intellectual tree. So I suppose that roboticizing  AI in our own image and with our evolved functionality, was inevitable too. Though as I see it, AI is simply an intellectual and developmental means to and end, where the importance lies not in the vehicle, but in it's data processing unit. Nonetheless, for AI to go it alone, it will need to be mobile and dexterous. Or of course, AI will need to enslave humans, and I'm not sure that this process isn't already ongoing. In fact, it could be argued that we and now AI were inevitable evolutionary outcomes in this respect.

So you used the word treatment, which I took to mean behaviour or conduct towards others, rather than the provision of remedial therapy. Though I see no reason why AI will not eventually be able to fulfil such roles. But only if it thinks that it is is logically necessary to do so. Perhaps it will see no beneficial reason in maintaining dysfunctional slaves.

Now that was a brilliant analysis. Well done. I did mean by "treatment" your "remedial therapy." 

Obviously AI is more intelligent than Trump.

Orange AI is the best AI.

You must be smart since your Religion says Other.

Minkin still thinks you are a moron for saying something nice about Jesus.

AI will replace many jobs but not in the way most people think it would. AI will be used in every other field for sure. I think AI will be taught eventually in every higher education degree. 

Higher education will get changed a lot enabling people to apply and maintain AI integration in their apparently non-AI field.

I read this article on AI Job Takeover a few days ago, it cleared my confusions around the topic and let me understand with real cases that how far AI is taking over and how can we adapt by reskilling and upskilling ourselves to stay ahead.
