Is it just me or does the future he paints sound absolutely abysmal? It's effectively a dictorship where your entire life is bouncing from one tulip mania to another holed up in your apartment talking to an AI and lost in a world of garbage content from Neflix 2.0 while you await your burrito delivery and dream of hitting it big on <insert_name> Coin so you can move to Mars and watch the dust blow around. Kill me now :( |

That's how I know it's an realistic and mostly unbiased prediction that's relatively accurate: it looks kinda like today, except more of it. Barring a black swan event that drastically changes our system of values and incentives, that's probably how it's going to play out. We just had a black swan play out and... it's all the same, just six feet more of it.
Most social revolutions either up reshuffling the deck or in disaster. The low hanging fruit in most technological fields has been picked and "priced in" during decades past.
Hope for the best, expect the worst.
