USA - Bill Gates: AI Will Replace Doctors and Teachers
Over the next decade, advances in artificial intelligence will mean that humans will no longer be needed “for most things” in the world, says Bill Gates.
In other words, the world is entering a new era of what Gates called “free intelligence” in an interview with Harvard University professor and happiness expert Arthur Brooks. The result will be rapid advances in AI-powered technologies that are accessible and touch nearly every aspect of our lives.
Others, like Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman, counter that continued technological advancements over the next several years will change what most jobs look like across nearly every industry…
Suleyman wrote in his book “The Coming Wave,” “They will make us smarter and more efficient for a time, and will unlock enormous amounts of economic growth, but they are fundamentally labor replacing.”
“There will be some things we reserve for ourselves. But in terms of making things and moving things and growing food, over time those will be basically solved problems,” Gates said.

Arno's Commentary
We note that 100 years ago, in 1925, approximately 30% of the US workforce was engaged in farming. We must add, they barely produced enough food for the entire population.
Today—not yet with AI technology, but primarily mechanical knowledge—less than 1% of America’s workforce produces an overabundance of food, of which 20-25% is exported, at an approximate value of $187 billion.
Bill Gates includes “growing food” as one industry affected by AI, which today is only in its infancy.
Our take? Mankind is becoming increasingly independent from God.
The Psalmist writes about Israel: “Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions” (Psalm 106:39). We do well to realize that all the inventions only serve the well-being of the flesh, which is of a temporary nature. The most important thing is being ignored, for man consists of spirit, soul, and body. The spirit is eternal—eternal for believers, who will be in the presence of God forever, and for unbelievers, Revelation 20:15 will be a horrible reality: “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
