The entire point of technology – practically its definition – is to reduce work. For centuries, people have been dreaming of a day when people don’t have to work and can get robots to do it all.
The problem is not AI taking away work – that’s a great thing – the problem is that our current economic system is not designed for this. Fixing our economic system is easier and gives much better results for people than trying to stop technological progress.
