The problem is going to be,

Am I spiritually satiated?

Am I happy?

And we're already seeing the effects of the device addiction on a standard of living that is going up all the time.

The developed world is getting less happy.

So what I tell people and they say, what's the future of work look like?

I'm like, look, one, there's probably plenty of it.

And two, if there isn't, good.

Seriously, like something profound will happen on the other side and we might discover what it means to be human.

But either you believe that everything is going to automate and we're going to have way more food and stuff or you don't.

And we're just going to continue to trudge along in our current sort of state.

And.

I argue that something has to give.

I think humans are meant for much more, and I'm not sure exactly what it is, but I do know that everyone is happiest when they're in physical community with friends and family, ideally outside.

And I'm like, man, could technology, this technology in particular, finally give us the opportunity to do that, to actually congregate the way that our hunter-gatherer ancestors did?

in a way that Harari argues they might have been the happiest humans to ever exist because they had community and purpose throughout their life.

What if we are actually about to return to that?
