How about a ray of sunshine?

Elon Musk once said here’s what will happen once all this AI/robot stuff settles down.

Robots will be doing pretty much everything. Every human will be given $50,000 in today’s money, to buy the things the robots produce. Everyone will have lots of free time to do as he wishes.

Happy, happy everyone will be.

“Everyone will have lots of free time to do as he wishes.”

I doubt if God approves. He knows more than we do.

What could possibly go wrong?

“Given”? Instead of lowering labor costs for companies? YOU can be the one waiting for that to happen.
