This suggests to me more separation into industrial versus residential areas. (Or what is the mining for?)
Historically, mechanized agriculture allowed most people to move to cities, then to suburbs. Industry became globalized and off-shored.
These changes in land use have gone on for a long time. Now we’re getting more solar farms and data centers. Due to Internet shopping, malls close and get converted into residential. There are more warehouses, but shoppers don’t go there.
You could think of it as people being increasingly alienated from where the work is done. The logical conclusion is something like a retirement community where goods and services are delivered where possible and the people who work locally are directly providing services to other people there.
And retirees are people who secured an income through whatever means and don’t have to work anymore. They don’t have to worry about how AI will affect their job.
