It's unlikely that the singularity will ever occur (thankfully). The limits to growth will see to that.

Advanced technologies will become increasingly uneconomic over time as energy and other resources become increasingly scarce and expensive whilst 'consumers' purchasing power falls as the dysfunctional world of finance has to deal with the reality of a finite planet.

Sure it will take a few decades but it will become increasingly economic for humans to replace machines. The real issue to think through is how we deal with this without resorting to slave labour and other such niceties of times past.

The insidious gradual undermining of natural aptitude by way of electronic technology is taking over the minds of so many. This will be one of the most critical factors within the lifetime of the so-called babyboomers. Due to the decline of manufacture & the subsequent loss of revenue, the increasing demand for social services will not be met. The rest is up to anyone's imagination of which hardly any is needed to guess what's in store for us.

Hi! Good evening! I have read your article and in my opinion, humans may maintain it's position and is not replaced by these hi-tech robots because, they are not be made if humans are not present. These machines are made only to help humans in their daily lives and to help progress in lifestyle not to destroy its community.
