I'm not sure passion exists in a world without struggle...

The idea that AI will ever remove all struggle, even if it reaches AGI, is absurd. AI by itself can't give you a hug, for example--and even if advances in robotics make it possible for an AI-controlled robot to do that, there are dozens of unsolved problems beyond that to make that something that most people would even want.

AI enthusiasm really is reaching a religious level of ridiculous beliefs and this point.

I doubt ai will remove all struggle. I suspect we wouldn't see great extents of human passion in a world where everyone is fed, clothed, housed, etc without needing to exert themselves at all.

"I only make you struggle because I love you!"

(Mmmhmm, I'm sure the benefits received by the people on top have nothing to do with it.)
