Who is actually a pet? · The AI Advantage

Who is actually a pet?

If AI is going to take over all the factory jobs, maintenance jobs, cleaning jobs, infrstructure, there will be no jobs of that kind left for humans. So, opportunuty for a basic universal income will be huge, and every person might get, let say, 150.000$ per year, to do whaever they want to do, anything that is, for the time being exclusively human right. The question is how soon will the day come when robots (with feelings) will say: OK, these humans are like our pets, we take care of everything for them, we feed them, we clean them, we cure them, we let them live in our space, so they cant live without us. One day they can deside to get rid of their pets.
