"Why do we work?" and "What is work?" -- great questions to ask ourselves, as usual from you Paul! Thanks for this!

20% of human metabolic energy fuels the brain & yet few utilize that neurologic potential, either for computation or imagination, and seem to default to sensation. Pervasive AI is the forcing function, the paradigm shift, of what it means to "think" and how we value each other's innovative contributions—finally a challenge beyond where the next mouthfull is coming from, but it will be a catastrophic dis•location for many.

It will also force social restructuring where play fuses into work and tribalism recedes as traditional hierarchies crumble (unless a total control becomes possible with AI biometric controls.)

Hard to predict, but exciting times ahead; although Chinese savants warn of life in interesting times.
