Will Juan's insanely ambitious predictions come true (likely) and why is he so sure (backed by evidence)?

In Episode #476 of Musings, Juan and I discuss: the rapid advancements in AI (drawing from his past experiences in AI sales and chatbot implementations), the slow progress of autonomous Haul Trucks I saw in the mining industry, .Juan's prediction that unemployment rates will more than double by the end of 2026, robotic process automation (RPA) and its potential to replace repetitive tasks traditionally done by humans, the types of drones, vehicles & machines we are likely to start noticing in every day life and why the whole 'job' narrative is stupid anyway.

Huge thanks to Cole for the support this week, it is very much appreciated!
