A.I. and robotics are coming of age. Networked resources will soon gain dominance and dominion over creation, displacing humans as the world's shepherd. The intent in creating this machine was to relieve humans from labor and create ensured survival. But iIn this new reality, human survival is discounted, perhaps unnecessary. Human endeavors will shift from survival and sustainment to providing ever-increasing resources and energy in service of the automation we created in order to ensure it survives. Will the machine's survival necessitate our survival, and will that ultimately lead to a symbiotic relationship? Are we risking irrelevance and, potentially eradication or at best, progressive depopulation to the point beyond which we can no longer recover our dominance.
