> I don't get that. Neither the "work or starve" nor "work is holy" ethics have ever appealed to me. I like to play. I think you are failing to see robots will also take away play. Why garden, make things from wood, sew, knit, cook when they are close to free and better quality to buy. Why learn instruments, program, make art when a robot is so much better. Will reading be as fun when you have a millions of books specifically tailored to you by robots. Will travel have value when it's easy and cheap? Compound this with the fact the world will become much more homogeneous at national levels. Yes people will still have hobbies, but when they are needed to give you self worth, which is what work currently does, I don't think it will be enough.
