No one wants to work. They want to feel valued, and be productive. So let's just make it where working isn't a necessity, pls.

Yea sure, and then slowly slowly even stop those who work 3 per days, right? So the AI csn do all the job. Now they lose money, but once they put AI they will only win money.

AI is good, they develop AI to help us, and then, one day will ditch us.
