No. I don’t want them to starve when they get replaced by robots, which is the current plan, apparently.

Well if you’re ignorant enough to think things will stay the same for the rest of your life while digitalization is ramping up… Who’s at fault here?! Just diversify and find different avenues.

It’s not that we don’t want robots doing it - honestly that’d be pretty cool. It’s that we want to be sure the people that are being replaced are being taken care of.

I imagine a post-scarcity world where all basic needs are met for everyone on the planet without question, and with minimal need for human labour, and that more as technical overseers. People would be free to work as much or as little as they want at whatever they want for their own betterment, or nothing at all if they want. Is that too much to ask?
