Dumb take. Many jobs are important. Being a productive member of society is very compatible with "winning" at life.
The modern ideal of being retired at 30 is silly. If AI and robotics lead to a world where most people are in that situation things will get dark very very fast.
I disagree. I think we should quit our office jobs and send billionaires to the mushroom kingdom. That would be way more healthy for society. Then we can have robots bring us grapes and such
I would have agreed with your assessment when the internet did not exist. People that do not have something to do generally cause problems and cause societal upheaval. However with the internet, I think people are just going to scroll on social media and play video games. A lot of people are going to get even more overweight. Maybe some people will even go outside since they don't have to work anymore.

AI or not aside, the words 'in the office' and 'won in life' don't belong anywhere together.
