To me, true AI would have the ability to reason and not just follow programming but grow and learn like a inteligant creature.

Not where I'd like to be
Why do you say that, can you explain why. I have never used it. So I have no idea if I'm missing anything or not.
I've seen what it's capable of, and how that's grown exponentially over a short time. When paired with advances in robotics, at some point billions of humans will no longer have a purpose.
Whether it decides to remove us, or we just fade away due to a Universe 25 type situation, I don't know, but humans need purpose in their lives. We need some strife and adversity to overcome. When that is removed, so is our self-worth. I just don't see this ending well.

its almost impossible to predict, but its going to be crazy, Id like to think people will revert back valuing family and community, children wont need to move away from their parents to pursue money and opportunity. People will have time to form more social bonds than we currently do. I get a lot of fulfillment from growing my own food, taking care of animals. People will no doubt have much more free time to do what they want, instead of laboring at jobs that they dont enjoy, just to survive.
