I personally loved the Dermot Desmond Metrolink column. Very fun. "Why do anything?", I say. "Richard, why aren't you in work?" "Robots in the future will make me obsolete."

Serious underestimation of the unpopularity of this. Good luck to any government trying to ban people driving cars.

“Within 15 to 25 years, I think it will be mandated that there will be autonomous vehicles. People will not be allowed to drive anything,” he said, adding that AI is already cutting travel times and saving energy. image

Reminds me of this article about free-will and determinism. Why do anything when your entire life is mapped out by the laws of physics: www.theguardian.com/news/2021/ap... I especially like the academics who say that if they's known how depressing determinism is, they would've studied something else
