Will artificial intelligence replace humans?

We have entered the "second machine age." The first machine age began with the industrial revolution, which was driven primarily by technology innovation. The ability to generate massive amounts of mechanical power made humans more productive. Where the steam engine started the industrial revolution, the second machine age has taken us by storm with computers and other digital advancements giving us the ability to understand and shape our environments. What the steam engine and its descendants did for muscle power, the Internet of Things (IoT), computers, digital technology, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) will do for brainpower.
