Imagine a world where everything is 100% sustainable—food, energy, housing—without harming the planet. Now, take it a step further: what if nobody had to work because automation and robots/AI handled everything?
Some sci-fi worlds (Star Trek, post-scarcity cyberpunk) and political theories (Luxury Fully Automated Communism) toy with this idea, but is it actually possible? Could we ever reach a point where society functions without labor, and people just live to learn, explore, and enjoy life? Or is this just a pipe dream, doomed by human nature, power struggles, and resource limitations?
Would you want to live in a world like this, or does it sound dystopian in disguise?
