Substitute "looms" for "AI" and your fear sounds rather familiar.

That’s a very accurate observation. Totally agree.
Willing to bet the reason violence used to be so prevalent was due to boredom. Now we have jobs, video games, and TV to “feed” us.
Right one of those things is teaching war. If a second one is removed like jobs… gonna be a lot of bored people again.

Yes, all those people who made buggy whips, horseshoes, and stage coaches were homeless and unemployed after that evil Henry Ford starting building automobiles!

I've been musing over how AI will control even more of Investment Management (when compared with the computer models used to manage investments). As AI controls more of businesses, and AI controls more of the investments into (and out of) those businesses I'm very curious to see what the results will be.
I also am thinking how it will become even more difficult to raise children - already very difficult with today's technology.

AI will even influence how we think about money. Ever since the humanity thought up of trading something of value, whether it be a rock or a goat, for something else they considered valuable... money (goats are a form of monney) has always centered around the idea of intrinsic value.
If UBI (Universal Basic Income) is the idea floating around to address tons of people being out of jobs due to AI. Forget the start of it, imagine the next 1,000 years of people getting used to getting money for nothing. The next round of new politicians will always promise new crap. Just like any other fake momentary system it gets out of hand. Then we end up with an inflated UBI based on people doing nothing for it (except giving up their freedom, but I digress).
Which means, future money will have no intrinsic value. Which is impossible. Which means money will be a concept of the past, in the way we see it now. Also, curious to know how that would affect investments if we have no concept of money (value).

AI will control investment management under the parameters of its master.
Now, whether or not those controls are in your best interest, or the management company, remains to be seen, but I think we both know that answer to this question.

Maybe put an AI autonomous robot in a Tesla and shoot it into space to show the universe how cool we are?
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

The universe has been laughing at us for a very, very long time now. I can assure you, without a shadow of doubt, no Tesla is going to change that.

One area I think it could be very useful in in analysing code in large and complex systems to help developers when debugging issues.
I could really do with this sometimes, so that I could ask the system "how is this particular value for x generated" and I could be given a map of how that value was derived rather than have to spend potentially hours to get there.
I work on systems where it can take hours and sometimes even weeks to debug and figure out an issue.

You should at least give a reference to the song you quote:

Some of us are too old. I quit listening to pop by the 1970s.
