That's kind of my point. Automation of labor doesn't fix these issues. I love vr but even full dive doesn't fix these issues. These technologies often get touted as the gateway to Utopia but we likely already have all of the technology needed to create some level of Utopia today. The biggest obstacles seem to be efficiency, distribution and sociology.

Automation of labor destroys the dogma that you need to work to have the right for a decent living. It will completely change our culture. Look at the Zoomers, they think leisure is more important than work. Now imagine generation Alpha...IMO our global culture will be completely different by 2050.
