Musk lays out four bold bets: robot surgeons, future abundance, longer lives, and AI supremacy
Elon Musk outlined four near-future predictions: robot surgeons could be commonplace by 2030, reducing medical shortages; if AI and automation continue, savings for retirement may become irrelevant as goods and services approach zero cost; lifespans could extend dramatically, potentially toward immortality; and AI will surpass human intelligence by 2030, accelerating changes to work and society.
