Interesting points that you make. However, I wonder, for example, if AI systems related to big data could be specialized to provide counseling and/or coaching services in certain fields? In other words could advancements in AI reach a point to where virtual people, complements of photo realistic rendering and advancements in natural language processing, could enable companies to employ certain "expert systems" in delivering services to their clients/customers? And if such systems are successful in helping said people solve problems, what are some of the possible future implications?
