Anthropic Researchers Warn That Humans Could End Up Being "Meat
Robots" Controlled by AI
"Basically, you're having human meat robots."

"There is this whole spectrum of crazy futures," Douglas, who worked
at Google DeepMind until earlier this year, told the 24-year-old
podcaster. One such future involves a "drop in white collar workers"
over the next two to five years, the researcher said — one that he
thinks will come to pass "even if algorithmic progress stalls out."

Bricken, meanwhile, had more grandiose prognostications about the
future he and his colleagues in the AI space are building.
"The really scary future is one in which AIs can do everything except
for the physical robotic tasks," he declared. "In which case, you’ll
have humans with AirPods, and glasses and there’ll be some robot
overlord controlling the human through cameras by just telling it what
to do."

Human labor will, Douglas predicted, primarily be valued upon how well
we can do physical work that AI cannot, like so many Taskrabbits for
the algorithmic powers that be — but luckily, we make "fantastic
robots" to that end.
"That's a shocking, shocking world," he concluded.

The AI revolution is going to bring unbelievable change to human society.
