I strongly believe that the end of business and human workers = the end of all useful human intelligence. Machines will even do our volunteer work for us.

I don't know if I can emotionally handle it. It's very sad watching businesses like bookstores close and I start feeling a pain inside. I only hope that somebody here is receptive to me.

Humans are becoming more machine like, ironically.

What is ending is not business with human workers but rather brick and mortar store fronts for items easily sold on the internet. Every internet business is inside a building somewhere, it's just not a store front. And there are human(s) working inside.

Brick and mortar store front business will persist for things that are best bought in person; cars, restaurant dining (not everyone wants takeout),large items of furniture that are best examined in person (beds, sofas), things that need to be examined in person for quality (antiques- not everybody trust an ebay photo).

Amazon is putting bookstores out of business but is still a business with buildings and lots of human employees. They just all work in warehouses instead of stores.

You're asking an awful lot of questions, K_Kelly. Perhaps you'd like a visit to a state-sponsored (re)education camp.

PS: This is a joke.

I don't think machines will replace humans in preeminence anytime soon.
