I'm somewhat worried about this upcoming wave of bots replacing jobs. There seem to be 2 paths forward:

1. Star Trek outcome: People will have time to pursue interests outside of their job.

2. Mad Max outcome: Money and resources are hoarded by the people who own the bot industry, everyone else suffers.

3. ??

3. Kafka outcome: we all get bureaucratic meaningless jobs digging holes for others to fill.
