I guess I expect higher standards than the kind of confident extrapolation you find in pseudo-science. And "vision of the future" is your euphemistic rewrite.
If that's clearly stated I obviously have no problem with people's fanciful speculation. But these are claims in the format: "X will be replaced in a couple of years, how should we adapt as a society?" etc etc.
Well... whether the machines take over or just give us a common enemy, at this stage, the rise of Skynet seems to me like the highest likelihood path for global coordination.
Well, since it's hard to prove a negative, that then applies to basically everything. Look, people can "consider" whatever they want to. But I'll certainly complain about the normalization of making sloppy extraordinary claims on gut feeling. It's like some /r/wallstreetbets user trying to predict the future by the shapes & patterns of stock graphs. It's intellectually lazy and suggests lacking critical thinking.
