It's interesting to note that when Marx argued that technology would automate labor and usher in an era of abundance, he was talking about the automatic loom. Modern computers would have completely blown his mind, let alone AI or robotics.
As long as I live I will never understand how the far left preached a technology-enabled post-scarcity society for so long, and then as soon as 3-D printers, AI, and robotics started to prove them right they immediately started proclaiming that the whole concept of technology or post-scarcity sucks, actually.
