2025 is insanely early. Even if we got AGI in 2025 it would take awhile for it to filter out to the general public and start affecting things. I'm all for being optimistic but, calm down.

I'm assuming you didn't get the gist of the post then. I'm not talking about full dive VR and nano-bots building dreams.

I'm talking about office work, research, and programming being disrupted after 2025, and before AGI. Every industry that involves IT will be affected, and productivity of those sectors will skyrocket. This will inevitably lead to low skill layoffs at first, and echo up the chain of command.

We're already replacing people with bots. Look into RPA - Robotic Process Automation.

And Olive AI is a healthcare-related company using AI to make paying for healthcare 1000% more efficient.

This is happening now, today. In 2025 these technologies will be miles better. We're on the cusp of a productivity explosion.

Being that robotics is an IT industry (obviously), the growth there is going to boom even more than it has in the past few years.

I don't think a lot people are ready to expect it over the next couple years. I think 2025 is when it will be proven to be useful enough to most industries that it will start being deployed en masse in different sectors.
