Buy as much VTSAX as you can. You need to try as hard as you can to move from the employee class to the capitalist class.

Depends on where you are in the world as to how dogs are treated. Some are treated very well, some have medical experiments conducted on them, some are euthanized, some are eaten. How ASI will regard humans remains to be seen.

Short term: Mass unemployment, social dislocation, revolutions, strife.
- Long term: If humanity survives the short-term effects, expect a golden age for humanity.

Animation will be the first to undergo massive change. Animation is already made by giving the start point and end point of a character's action, and the direction of the action. The work is then sent to South Korea where animators there fill in the frames in-between the ones given. Using a prompt to generate a background and software to generate the action will change animation and special effects first by taking out much of the grunt work.

As smart as a human but able to think as fast as a computer. I'm not sure you would need an AGI with an IQ above 120 for it to do astounding things.

I would say you are the exception. Most people currently on welfare are women and children, they are not writing the Great American Novel. Some certainly take the opportunity to go to school and learn a new skill but, again those are the exception.

People currently on welfare are not pursuing innovative dreams.They are mostly sitting in front of the TV eating chips.

Seems like a WATSON that understands natural language. Time to do another Jeopardy episode, but make the computer listen to the question just like the human contestants.

The longshoremen are currently holding up improvements at the Port of Los Angeles. For a microcosm of the future take a look at that situation.

2025 is insanely early. Even if we got AGI in 2025 it would take awhile for it to filter out to the general public and start affecting things. I'm all for being optimistic but, calm down.

Take pen to paper and be inspired by something. It may not be good art, but it will be art.

Every city had a least one theater, NY alone has had more than 40 theaters for forever. Going to the theater is an expensive proposition for many. Even movie theaters are becoming too expensive for many.

There were more than 40 theaters decades ago and box office is down. Check your facts.

Movie theaters seem to finally be on the way out or at least in the showing of more small intimate films. Every film has to be a roller coaster ride to get people to theaters. Smaller romances or comedies or dramas all going to the streaming services. Live theater is a very niche business mostly for elites and the upper middle class.

Humans can't make art without any prompting. Even Michelangelo if he had never seen a drawing or a sculpture or anything from nature could not produce art.
All artists are influence by other art. AI artists will get much better over the next ten years where is will be impossible to tell if the art was produced by an AI or a human.

Capitalists control the state. It is their instrument. You are a slave to the capitalist and have always been a slave to the capitalist.

It will take 10 to 20 years for capitalists to come to this realization. Right now they seem to think a rental model will compensate for reduced prosperity of the masses, "You will own nothing, and you will be happy." But, I not so sure that is going to work out.

Denial of impending catastrophe is a trait most humans seem to posses. Most people can not project out past next weekend. It is why most people are poor.

The wealthy and the corporations will control it. They will make insane amounts of money for 10 to twenty years after AGI. Once everyone is unemployed it is any guess what will happen.
