Part 2/8:
Over the next decade, we stand on the precipice of transformative change—one that requires us to ask far more ambitious questions than we have thus far. Instead of merely striving to create smarter chatbots, what if we contemplated the potential of an AI-powered autonomous civilization? This idea may sound fantastical, yet some regions of the world are already edging closer to this vision. Take South Korea, for instance, home to the world's most automated environments, where robots not only unload ships at ports but also serve food and manage kitchen tasks seamlessly. In fact, South Korea has one robot for every ten workers, and remarkably, this automation is welcomed rather than resisted by its people.
