Robotics and artificial intelligence technologies are rapidly advancing, raising questions about whether AI will replace human jobs. While AI is already demonstrating superhuman abilities in some tasks like data processing and face recognition, fully autonomous intelligent machines on the level of science fiction are still unlikely. As machines continue to become more intelligent, researchers warn that there may come a point where AI surpasses human intelligence, known as the intelligence explosion. It will be important to ensure AI systems remain beneficial to humanity as their capabilities increase.
