People who believe this view people as things that can be replaced when they become less efficient than other things, and the idea that we all go into oblivion (nice euphemism, please use die off or go extinct instead.) because some crappy AI can mindlessly do chess, go, or make a facebook clone better than person is ludicrous at the minimum, psychotic at the maximum.

It's not psychotic, it's objective reality. People get old, they cease to be efficient, they die, and they are replaced by a younger generation. This has been going on since the dawn of life. The same organizing principle applies to capitalism, if a better way of doing things comes along, the old way is pushed aside, it can't compete.
