You're either underage or delusional, the generation being born now may be that one, or it may be their kid's. Definitely not this generation (Gen Y).

the moment when having a machine do a specific job becomes cheaper than the person doing the same job, the machine will replace the person

this already happened a number of times in the past

I didn't say it wouldn't happen, or that it wouldn't happen on a widespread global scale. Just that AI won't take 90% of all the jobs within our lifetimes (until we retire).

It's really not that hard. You don't have to be a genius to know how to write Javascript.

You are delusional. In the next 20 Years nearly half of all jobs will be lost to automation. Delivery, transport, all cleaning services and all cashiers will be gone.

I just don't understand i/o controls and loops. I just can't wrap my head around it and even the step by step examples don't make sense to me.

>all cashiers will be gone

We already have self-checkout at almost every supermarket, and yet there are STILL cashiers available. Granted, not as many as before, but they're still there.

However, thinking about it more, maybe this is just a case of them waiting out until all the baby boomers die out.

The machine will never stop, we have more than enough resources to power gadjets for thousands of years(The sun yo) and The presence of our current technological level is so overwhelming we wouldn't have trouble picking back up even if their was a catastrophe. Everyone who survived would probably have a cell phone on them, there would be the wreckage of cars everywhere, our grid is carved into the very face of the planet on every continent. Airports all over the world, Cell phone towers all over the world. Even if the population was reduced by 70% the infrastructuree would be a glaring reminder of where we should start.

yea the amount of shop jobs being to lost to online shops alone is kind of crazy. If you don't need a custom fit , you can buy it online. And the demographics most heavily involved with this behavior grew up before the internet came into being

They're trying to figure out what to do with people

Yeah I know that, I did a research paper on it. But you said 90%, the remaining 40% are not automatable within the next twenty years because the sheer task of automating it is so difficult.
