You didn’t find this part naive? > But within 20 years, 99% of the workforce in the military, the government, and the private sector will be AIs. This includes the soldiers (by which I mean the robot armies), the superhumanly intelligent advisors and engineers, the police, you name it. | ||

Frankly, I find that less 'naive' than I do 'dangerously possible'. Autonomous weaponry is one of the few ways that a fascist state could reasonably maintain violent control over a large and hostile populace. I guarantee Trump would rather have perfectly obedient killbots than critically thinking soldiers, or even just the 5 murderous assholes required to oversee tasking for 1000 semi-autonomous police drones. The least plausible part is the private sector, which just doesn't work that way. | ||
