Social engagement. There has always been a small segment of people able to make a life that way, but with the other two concerns out of the way it opens the floodgates.

This is the conclusion I've been coming around to as well.

There has alwasy been a small segment of people able to make a life that way

This is the same with the move from mechanical to thinking. There was always a small segment of "thinkers" for everyone else, it was secondary to their mechanical abilities.

What has me thinking now is, if this is true, when we figure out how machines can be social, do we unlock another element of humanity which we don't recognize or appreciate yet?
