This is exactly the type of "tech bros are completely out if touch with how people work" vision of the future I guess we should expect from the guy that wrote this article.
Humanity has never lived in a world where leisure and idle time are not constantly being invaded by the oppressive survival demands or a hierarchal authoritarian mandate from a ruling class. If AI does provide a mechanism to allow humans to spend their free time in true leisure, like most of humanity living in the Star Trek future, then we should embrace it. Not straddle humans with artificial subordination.
Reject this as all costs.
