Potential Future of AI in a Post-Scarcity Utopia
Nick Bostrom's book, Deep Utopia, explores a future where advanced AI resolves humanity's challenges. Bostrom envisions a world where AI can efficiently perform all tasks, including human-unique activities like parenting. Despite sounding dystopian initially, Bostrom sees this as a post-scarcity utopia, allowing humans to pursue passions beyond current limits. However, he also acknowledges the persistence of scarce positional goods and questions the purpose of humans in a world where AI excels at all tasks.
