Yea, it seems every year we are moving closer and closer to some dark mixture of Manna, Fifteen Million Merits [1] and Elysium [2], where regular people no longer serve any purpose, and are simply warehoused somewhere to keep them out of the hair of the few rich elite.

I don't see automated everything becoming possible in our lifetimes, instead I see dystopian societal collapse due to climate shifts being much more likely.
