Imagine what humanity could achieve if we worked together. If robots/AI work out and we do have 100% spare time then you’d hope there would be more of this sort of thing.

Such a shame that it’ll probably just mean more inequality, at least in the short term.

If robots/AI work out we will need to use 100% of our spare time to work what few jobs are still available to humans so we can earn enough money to pay rent.

No, that's an example of robots/AI not working out. Yes, this means that "making robots/AI work out" is a political and economic problem, not just a technical one.

It's really unfortunate that the people who run the biggest AI companies don't share your definition of success.
