Well in Sam’s ideal world you’ll be using bots to keep yourself distracted.

You would like to learn to play the guitar? Sorry, that kind of money didn’t pass in the budget bill, but how about you ask the bot to create music for you?

Elites also get something way better than keeping people busy for distraction… they get mass, targeted manipulation and surveillance to make sure you act working the borders of safety.

You know what job will surely survive? Cops. There’ll always be the nightstick to keep people in line.
