Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and IdeasJohn Danaher on Our Coming Automated UtopiaHumans build machines, in part, to relieve themselves from the burden of work on difficult, repetitive tasks. And yet, despite the fact that machines are everywhere, most of us are still working pretty hard. But maybe that’s about to change. Futurists like John Danaher believe that society is finally on the brink of making a transition to a world in which work would be optional, rather than mandatory — and he thinks that’s a very good thing. It will take some adjusting, personally as well as economically, but he envisions a future in which human creativity and artistic impuls...2020-05-181h 22Philosophical Disquisitions76 - Surveillance, Privacy and COVID-19
