Musk is very smart when it comes to building engineering-oriented companies, but he doesn't understand humans. If humans are not needed for work, they are not needed at all. They become useless animals at a zoo—soon-to-be extinct, outdated relics of curiosity.

He thinks this way about humans because he thinks his Optimus robot will replace us.

The positive here is that it raises the question, "Is there a God or not. And, if there is, what does He want for humanity?"

I believe there is a God who created humanity for a purpose and that purpose will continue to play out despite what Musk thinks.

If there is no God, Musk is right. Humanity, for the most part, is done. Their chapter is over.

And what does Musk propose to do when the masses of useless humans grow restless and rise up against their AI overlords?

Maybe he has a more permanent solution in mind.

they likely said that about the first guy to build a bridge over a major river - I mean what about all the water taxis and ferries that one bridge put out of work? All those people must have just wandered off, dropped on their backs and died.
