The problem is that the time benefits of automation are never returned to the people. We'll just invent new bullshit jobs.

(paid) hours worked per family are massively up over time despite exponential progress. We have stuff but no time nor security.

The countries with the most dire birth rates are the ones with a workaholic culture.

The depressing reality is rather than giving people back their time, even more of it will be pushed for in the future, to sustain the ageing population.
