I believe the purpose of life is to create possibility. If that’s true, there will never be an incentive to work less so long as there is more possibility to be created (assuming that people are living purposefully, and it seems to me that those that don’t are evolutionarily selected against)

What if there's a point where superintelligent AI is out there creating all the possibility?

Also, "creating possibility" sounds kind of like "self actualization" ie. the top of Maslow's hierarchy.

Your first question is a good one to which I don’t have an answer.

On the second: possibility applies at all levels of the hierarchy. Obtaining basic health increases possibility — it increases the ways you can navigate the world at a simple physical level, and “unlocks” The possibility of “higher levels” e.g. relationships, which unlock still higher levels of possibility.
