We live in a post-scarcity world - yet people are still starving ans stilll dying from easy curable diseases.

I won't be holding my breath.

    Yup. The rich will use it to consolidate power and wealth, while the poor still have to go to work and grind for 50+ hours a week just to scrape by. Nothing will change, because the issue isn’t a lack of resources; The issue is resource distribution.

    I wish I could remember the origin, but I had perhaps 1 hour of contiguous sleep last night so I'm operating at 10% normal acuity.

    The TL;DR was, even with adequate distribution, we would still be operating at above sustainable levels in terms of emissions.
