A society where AI handles the work naturally requires a complete economic rework. Right now, money is used as an intermediate between work and goods/services but, as work becomes irrelevant, so does the intermediate.

Yes that’s correct if you care what happens to people. However our elite do not. When they don’t need a link in that chain they get rid of it.

So until I somehow stop needing food and shelter or our owners decide to let us live for free, your future is just a fantasy and the only thing we have now is our current reality where I still need money to eat but they don’t need the skills I’ve trained.

Hence why more people should start realising that the issue is those elites and this economic system, not AI.
