DAVOS rich idiot bullshit about a future world where everyone important is a jet setting lease nomad with no personal property that just travels around and stays at airbnbs while having subscriptions to food prep services and clothing replacement services and leases for appliances and devices.

It's like a corporate hellscape version of the Star Trek universe replacing replicators with the bottom 80% of society struggling behind the scenes in gig work jobs to support the careless greed of the ultra wealthy for a pittance, unable to afford the very goods and services they gig work to distribute.

It's the wealthy's wet dream and they have been pushing it in one form or another for 15 years at least.
