The only way this is getting sorted is if a benevolent AI takes the world by force. And that's not going to happen on this timeline. So we are pretty much assured to be descending into resource wars, mass migration and civil unrest. Trump, Boris and Brexit are the first signs of the developed world pulling up the drawbridges. It's kind of like an emotional response within the brain. We feel trouble significantly before we can reason about it. The emotional response is the fast, unthinking systems of the mind which respond to danger. People on the ground are feeling the danger even though they can't quite put their finger on the reason. And so we get polarisation and isolationist policies.
