marx talked about it. with sufficient automation, the value of Labor collapses. under socialism, this is a good thing. under capitalism it's a bad thing.

money would either become worthless, or would have to stop representing labor. you would have two distinct classes with zero mobility between them. im taking a shit

If ai takes all our jobs the only way forward is communism, otherwise the working class will collapse and the capitalist class will collapse alongside.
