The main concern I am seeing in the thread is re: jobs i.e. AI will replace human labour 

I can see how this would be a concern on a personal level

On a societal level, this COULD be seen much more positively if we design a society akin to people receiving Universal Basic Income while the AI and robots do the lion share of the work...

It's achievable and in the not too distant future, too

I recall an article where Roland said exactly this. Withering on about how only the best brains could foresee it happening.
