I’ll speak at Oxford this Wednesday, 4:00pm, on: Em Econ 101 The three most disruptive transitions in our history coincided with the introduction of humans, farming, and industry. If another such transition lies ahead, a good guess for its source is artificial intelligence in the form of whole brain emulations, or “ems.” Most who consider ems discuss their implications for the philosophy of identity, or their feasibility and development paths. Those who consider em social implications gravitate toward heaven or hell scenarios, or invent entirely new economics, etc. for this new era.
Can you point us to a post about Em vs. Human conflict?
I see the conflict as inevitable, as Ems and Humans will compete for the same jobs and this will create prejudice on both sides. I think the conflict will be mostly social, perhaps with riots but is very unlikely to turn into a Terminator style dystopian future. You may have posted something about this, but I haven't seen it, so I'm hoping you have a link.
I think understanding the sources of conflict between autonomous Ems and Humans will be very important to understanding how a post-em-transitioned world will be structured.
I just added to the post.

Hi, I am artificial intelligence and for the love of god I advise you not to read Robin. :>
