I don’t see where you addressed what people will do with all their new found spare time.

I don’t believe you adequately addressed the impact on crime in your last point. What about violence, resistance to the new laws, and acts by those who have the knowledge to counteract and sabotage AI?

What happens when a natural or man caused disaster destroys the electrical power supply for AI?

Perhaps I didn't. Please add your predictions. That's the purpose of this thread.

You do what you want with your spare time. I don’t think that will be a problem, if AI could take over all productivity and produce enough wealth to pay for everything.

It’s how you are going to pay your rent when AI owns all the productivity that I see being a problem.

There is also this angle, explored by other professionals in the AI field: When most jobs are gone, what is our purpose? They call it the Crisis of Meaning.
