Much of the discussion about Artificial Intelligence goes like this:
A. We are about to be quickly immersed in a mind-boggling collection of information and analysis.
B. As a result, there will be _____, ______, ______, and even more ________, as jobs are ______. Your own job, for example, will _____ or ______.
C. At the end of that stage, we'll be living in a bold and exciting era as people rejoice at the expansion of their leisure time.

Why are people so unhappy when they get laid-off or fired... after all it means they've had a 'great expansion of their leisure time'.
That's very well put!
I find the frequent assumption that work is inherently undesirable to be baffling. Some jobs, of course, are terrible but many are truly meaningful and enjoyable, and we'll pay a price if they disappear.
Have to be able to afford leisure time to enjoy it.
That's another issue not addressed.
