    Using robots for dreary drudge work could be a good thing with something like UBI to go along with it. But instead of fully automated luxury gay space communism, they will implement “Gilded Age 2.0: The Worser Dystopia”, instead.

      Yeah, robots doing drudge work is exactly the future we were promised. It’s just that that’s supposed to allow humans to have more free time to pursue their interests, not die in a ditch from starvation.
