Bullshit jobs exist because - people need to have a salary to eat, - compagnies/ceos who have the actual cash think "head count" is a valuable metric enough to invest in more people without assessing their efficiency (which is arguably not easy). If you want to automate society these are the two main axioms you need to fight. Which mean you need - ubi. This one is obvious - make compagnies more efficient in terms of productivity pzr person and / or dissassociate the size of your compagny to your ego and / or the opinion of vc about it. Which is arguably not easy. Another issue is that sometimes some people who work 4h a week are still actually valuable in a society (same as some small part in an engines that are not used a lot, or even your brain that is not used 90% of the time). In that case its more about making those people freelance so they can still be useful and be paid w.r.t. their time whil they themselves are useful in several compagnies at once.
