So Elon just dropped a wild take: in under 20 years, going to work might be completely optional. Why? AI and robotics will handle everything.
Think about it. We're already seeing automation reshape industries. Smart contracts running DeFi protocols without human intervention. AI agents managing trading strategies. Robots in manufacturing and logistics.
But a world where work becomes a choice rather than necessity? That's a massive paradigm shift. It raises some big questions too: How do we structure society? What happens to income distribution? Will we all become degenerates farming yield or creating art?
The tech is accelerating faster than most people realize. Twenty years might even be conservative. Wild times ahead.

Stop talking nonsense, 20 years? I think AI can take my job in 2 years.

20 years? too optimistic, I think even 10 years is possible, now that Decentralized Finance over there has already started running.

20 years without working? Ha, it will still depend on the coin price by then.

Work options in 20 years? Wake up, UBI hasn't been established yet, how will people without jobs eat by then?
