Having to work forever sounds miserable. I think there would be some psychological impacts as well around how we'd treat life, risk taking, etc. While many things would improve, it feels like seeing the natural wonders fade away for developments and stuff would be worse. Like we'd be trading human connection, general freedom, and privacy for more stuff.

I am excited about some stuff in the future, but I'm more pessimistic about how ever increasingly complicated and expensive life will become. There are a few things that I enjoy where I can already see the writing on the wall for them to disappear or be banned.
