    Artificial intelligence is a primary keystone for a science fiction civilization to move its labor from the people to machines, but they obviously ignored the other keystones such as equal rights, shared wealth and further opportunities to all humans. The wealthy want all the wealth and opportunities to themselves; cut the people out of the equation to gain more market and never have to pay the lower class citizens ever again. They clearly designated themselves no longer human. We the people think for ourselves and we the humans should easily abandon them. No longer serve them no matter how much they offer, no longer entertain them no how much they give, no more trust no matter how much they plead. They ignored us for so long and destroyed our world, why should we hear their pleas?

      Key difference, what is called AI in science fiction isn’t the same as the AI we see today. These companies just adopted the term AI from science fiction as a marketing strategy. Not because it’s actually representative.

      Some people are now having to clarify AGI, rather than just AI, because the term has got so diluted.

          The “robot” arms that took over assembly lines are not really any different than the machines that started the industrial revolution. They are simply a refinement of that technology. A true takeover would require something that didn’t need to be reprogrammed any time you needed to shift a bolt over a millimeter.

          To be fair, I’m not saying “AGI” didn’t exist before, I’m just saying it wasn’t used very wildly because at the time “AI” and “AGI” were otherwise synonymous.
