I like to imagine a future where people get bored of automation and use transhumanism to start working again. Instead of drones, delivery is done by humans in exoskeletons running through the country at the speed that maximizes fun. Intellectual jobs are done by humans with augmented intelligence that feels just like normal consciousness. Even if it doesn’t generalize, I’d expect at least a few people chose this way of life. Isn’t it tempting ?
(I, for one, will be the running delivery guy)
I can see that happening, and that’s part of “how do you find meaning once work is automated” which is the question I struggle with most. Props on brain extensions that you are conscious of/as, it does seem intuitive to me that something like that will soon be available.
