Isn't it expected that most, if not all, of the content will be produced by AI/AGI in the near future? It won't matter much, if you're lazy or not. It leads to the question, what we'll do instead? People may want to be productive, but we're observing in real-time how world is going shit for workers and that's basically fact for many reasons.
One reason is that it's cheaper to use AI, even if the result is poor. It doesn't have to be high quality, because most of the time we don't care about quality, unless something interests us. I wonder what kind of shift in power dynamics will occur, but so far it looks just like many of us will just lose a job. There's no UBI (or social credit proposed by Douglas), salaries are low and not everyone lives in good location, but corporations try to enforce RTO. Some will simply get fired and won't be able to find a new job (that won't be sustainable for personal budget, unless someone already has low costs of living and is debt-free or has somewhat wealthy family that will cover for you).
Well, maybe at least government will protect us? Low chance, world is shifting right and it will get worse, once we start to experience more and more results of global warming. I don't see scenario, where world is becoming better place in foreseeable future. We're trapped in society of achievement, but soon we may be not able to deliver achievements, because if business can get similar results for fraction of the price (that is needed to hire human workers), then guess what will happen?
These are sad times, full of depression and suffering. I hope that some huge transformation in societies will happen soon or that AI development slows down, so that some future generation will have to deal with consequences (people will prioritize saving their own and it won't be pretty, so it's better to just pass it down like debt).
