yeah that my question to the author too - if A.I is to really earn its keep it means A.I should help in getting more physical products into people's hands & helping with producing more energy.

physical products & energy are the two things that are relevant to people's wellbeing.

right now A.I is sucking up the energy & the RAM - so is it gonna translate into a net positive ?

		No, because they’d be waiting in the lengthy queues that would be necessary for anyone to use it. There are hard constraints to this tech that make what you’re talking about infeasible.

		No because nurses, mechanics, and janitors are still needed.
