At least this batch of techno-alarmists is more entertaining than the last 50.

Fire bad! Thok like cold meat! Wheel Bad! Thok like walking!
As a singularitarian and technology geek I welcome our robot overlords, I just can't imagine new types of jobs for humans if technological change continues at its current rate.

That's not necessarily a bad thing. By definition, if there are no more jobs for humans to do, every human need will have been met.

And the elite's world-view is clearly when that time comes they no longer need us.

I think this is the rational for those that are afraid of such levels of technological development.  But I still think it's ill-founded.
