Elon Musk sagt, dass Arbeit in 10 bis 20 Jahren dank KI und Robotik optional und Geld irrelevant sein wird | Vermögen

Ok. How?

It’s like when I went to Epcot in the 80s and saw the part where they showed a family in the near future living under water. At 7 years old, I was like…ok. How?

Oh that makes sense why he demanded a TRILLION DOLLAR PAYOUT!!!!!

Oh, so he’s just going to give each of us a free Tesla then. Seems likely.

god, I hope that’s true. Musks money becoming irrelevant in particular, so nobody has to care about his opinions anymore

Ah yes, the concept of a post-scarcity society … coming from a 400 billion USD Nazi.

What could possibly go wrong?`

Yeah and we’ll all be dead and buried under his techtopia 

So no need to invest in your companies then, right? Since the returns will be meaningless?

In the 1930s, John Maynard Keynes predicted by 2030 we would be working 15 hours a week. There is still 5 years left, I suppose.

We could all be working 15 hours a week if our economic system were set up that way. We are immensely more productive than we were a hundred years ago.

I feel the same thing is true with this prediction. In 20 years it might be possible that we are far more productive again. And I also feel like we will be working just as hard or harder and our lives will be more miserable. We need to change the political system to make the economy actually work for us.

in other words … the jobs are going away

good luck 🖕

Utterly impossible. It’s not a matter of productivity but of politics and governance.

Humanity is more productive now yet we work more compared to half a century ago.

When some humans aren’t needed for productivity they’ll simply be left behind.

This would require socialized wealth distribution to the population. People without jobs will have no income stream without a universal basic income, or a universal distribution of goods and services. Something that I feel is antithetical to Elon’s desired future.

Based on the accuracy of his other predictions, this will never happen, and instead we will all work for AI and the robots.

**In the business world, this is what is conventionally referred to as a „marketing ploy.“**

Capital class tycoons have used the notion of technology leading to more wealth and less work since at least the 19th century (that I know of), and the Industrial Revolution, the Computer Age, and several other milestones have come and gone.

But the only real progress that led to more wealth and less work was the pro-labor, pro-union, New Deal era policies that expanded rights and guarantees for all Americans.

**The wealthy want you to think they are going to „take care of everything for you.“** But when has a billionaire ever given away something they weren’t forced to give away?

These are the same guys who pretend they are giving their fortunes away to charity, when all they’re actually doing is shunting their enormous wealth into one of many tax dodges (non-profits can hide billions, tax-free, so long as they spend a tiny amount of their endowment each year).

So, no, **AI and the rich will not save us from the societal structure they built and benefit from.** They are simply using that lie to diminish oversight and resistance to a series of policies that will only harm the average person across the world far more than it benefits them.

**Soon, they will not need you for anything.** So why do you think that *(the moment where all your leverage is gone)* will be the moment they will give you the world – for free?

And that’s why he has a trillion dollar pay package… because money won’t mean anything
