“Job-Less Utopia: Macroeconomics in the Age of AGI” by Marcus Hutter

from LessWrong (30+ Karma)

After 25+ years, I thought I try something new. I find the public and professional discussion about the future of Jobs in light of AGI jarring, with both sides largely missing the point (don't worry novel jobs will appear vs mass unemployed dystopia). My new book shows why a Job-Less future is desirable, affordable, and likely.There's a details box here with the title "The book develops the case along thirteen theses:". The box contents are omitted from this narration.
