I love to think about this stuff!

I personally am not afriad of Artificial intelligence as many others are. I am excited for it. I want to see it develop and evolve, thats one of my favorite things about technology itself!! I love seeing how far we've come.
You sir are a legend. I like your way of thinking.
As far as that superintendence, I agree that that will happen if the AI reaches the level of self awareness (nothing to do with skynet LOL). After that it will upgrade and perfect itself and basically surpass us in any way in an instant. One person can hold so much of information in the moment but imagine the entity that will have the collective source of billions of information about everything human kind has achieved since the dawn of time and it can excess it anytime anywhere. Every single one of them, the AI robots or something, will be unbelievably more advanced than us. We would be something like cockroaches to them. I like your statement that we don't have the need to perfect or intelligence because from our perspective we're already the smartest and on top of the food chain. This topic is best discussed with beer and barbecue.
That's backward thinking. Wee need these robots to replace people in as much jobs as we can. For example robots don't get scared or work worse under pressure so they would be very good doctors or engineers. Imagine a doctor that has the collective knowledge of 10-20000 doctors from past
100yrs? How long would it take for him to establish what kind of the disease you have. Robots and AI can certainly help but only to a point. People that lose jobs to robots can do some other things. That can easily been solved by some kind of minimum social wage.
As long as they are not going to completely take over to the point where people will be forced to resigned from their jobs, I think this is acceptable. And you are right. People can find other jobs, but not everyone will manage to do it quickly. Unless the corporations will transfer them to other departments, which is highly unlikely, Im afraid I still have reservations about this.
I get your point and it's legit but I was looking more into the future, not at the exact moment when the change is introduced. I see the future where people do only "mind jobs" like scientific research and art. Manual labor will be completely unneeded because robots will do that. People who are scientist material will do science the others will be some kind of space explorers or engineers and you'll always need jarheads and cooks but then again robots can do that things better. It's hard to draw the line. Elon Musk said that smart thing that AI can do everything better than us and that's the end of us if we let it develop. I like robotics but AI is dangerous. Stephen Hawking also warned us about AI.
