Well shit, 20 years and it looks like we may have replaced our entire workforce with robots that dont need to sleep, and can produce everything we need using low environmental impact devices. You know. Maybe the Jetsons weren't wrong, just early.
How do we not become WALL-E though.
Obviously 20 years is a vast overestimate when humans are involved
There's quite a bit of difference between material and immaterial things being produced by robots, and while I cannot say much about the former, I am very disappointed in how the latter is treated. I'm not completely against AI generated content - I use ChatGPT all the time - but I want a distinction between what was made by a human and what was made by a robot.
You think the world we live in supports this future? That's cute.
I think there are far more people than we give credit for who would much rather go outside, hit the gym, ride a bike, etc., than confine themselves to a chair all day.
