The claim of the AI true-believers is that this time it will be different because of the "general" nature of it.

Fire can't build a house.

The wheel can't grow crops.

Writing can't set a broken bone.

Double entry bookkeeping can't write a novel.

If you believe that this AI+robotics wave will be able to do anything a human can do with fewer complaints, what would the humans move on to?
